5.0 out of 5 stars
exciting medical thriller,
This review is from: Dangerous Medicine (Paperback)
Knowing she needed to start over, Lynn Holley leaves Boston to accept a nursing position at Harper Hills Hospital in Southern California. Her friend, Conrad Wirth, a hospital administrator, arranged the job for her. However, due to a car accident to one of the staff, Lynn is assigned to maternity as an emergency replacement though she has not worked that specialty in several years.Three weeks pass, but though she works hard, Lynn finds the maternity ward staff remains cold towards her. Even Conrad, who brought her across the continent, has not made contact since her arrival in the El Doblez area. She still shivers from her first confrontation with Dr. Nick Dow and tries to avoid him even as she finds herself attracted to the hospital heartthrob. However, while her adjustment has been abysmal, even worse is that her past has come home to roost as she begins receiving phone calls from apparently her dead husband. This is an exciting medical thriller that will grip the audience rather quickly because fans will believe the hospital, the staff, and the patients are real, which in turn adds depth to the pressure Lynn faces. Readers will wonder if the heroine is losing her mind yet admire her courage as she deals with the crisis. Nick is also a caring character sort, reminiscent of Ben Casey. Medicine, mystery, and mysticism mix quite nicely in Jane Toombs strong romantic suspense thriller. Harriet Klausner

This review is from: Dangerous Medicine (Paperback)
Lynn Holley is a nurse starting her new job at Harper Hills Hospital in California. She hopes this job is just what she's been looking for and that she can finally put her past in Boston behind her. Her first day in the hospital is not what she was expecting. She gets into an argument with one of the doctors she'll soon be working with and gets put in the maternity ward, the last place she wants to be. Lynn doesn't realize right away but her job puts everyone on the offensive since they believe that she's spying on them for the administrator that hired her.
Lynn soon finds herself involved in the lives of her patients and her co-workers without the intention to do so. Lynn doesn't want to get involved with any man, especially a doctor, but the sexy Dr. Nick Dow is proving hard to resist. Can Lynn and Nick form some sort of a relationship when neither one of them want to commit? Can they get to the bottom of the trouble that seems to be following Lynn? Jane Toombs has penned an exciting story packed full of mystery, danger, and passion. Lynn is a strong, intelligent woman who helps everyone she meets, even if she doesn't like them. Dr. Nick Dow has the reputation of being the Harper Hills heartbreaker but also a caring and honest doctor. This book has a lot of sub-plots and too many characters to mention, but everyone immerses you deeper into the story making a vital contribution. I loved the interaction between Lynn and Nick. There was a spark between these two characters from the beginning that seemed to grow more and more as the story progressed. This story is well deserving of 5 Angels. By Tammy Fallen Angel Reviews
