Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted Tressa at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted Jill at Breaking the Spine.
It’s been a stressful couple of weeks for me and, quite frankly, I need something happy and romantic to read, and my pick for this week just might feed that particular need of mine.
Title: Hotshot Doc
Author: R.S. Grey
Release Date: December 6, 2018
Dr. Russell has a bad reputation around our hospital. The scrub techs say he’s cold-blooded, the nurses say he’s too cocky for his own good, and the residents say he’s the best surgeon in the world—really, just a swell guy!—on the off chance he’s within earshot.
I try to avoid him and his temper at all costs. It’s just as easy to admire his sexy, grip-it-while-he’s ravishing-you hair and chiseled jaw from a healthy distance, preferably from the other end of the hallway half-hidden behind a plant.
Unfortunately, my plan crumbles when my trusty ol’ boss decides to swap his white coat for a Hawaiian shirt. His retirement leaves me with two terrible options: switch specialties and spend months retraining, or take an open position as Dr. Russell’s surgical assistant.
That means I have to stand near him in the OR for hours on end and anticipate his every need without letting his biting words and bad attitude intimidate me. Oh, and as if that’s not difficult enough, my silly crush on him—the one I’ve tried to stomp on until it disappears—might just be reciprocated.
It’s fine.
I’m fine.I take my job seriously. There will be no smoldering bedroom eyes across the operating table, no angry almost-kisses in the storage closet. (Well, no more of those.)
What’s the phrase? An apple a day keeps the doctor away?
Maybe I should go for a whole damn bushel.
R.S. Grey is one of my go-to authors whenever I need a funny and romantic read. I know I’ve missed her last few books (which I have on my Kindle but just haven’t gotten down to reading YET!!!) but I’m going to get back and read my way through her most recent releases starting with this one. I mean, really, you got me at hotshot doc. What’s more to ask for?!?
Hotshot Doc releases December 6 (so close now!!!)

I hope this one hits the spot for you, Rachel, and things calm down for you. I know what you mean about turning toward certain types of books when life is stressful. That’s about how I feel right now too. Take care of yourself. This one sounds really good!

I know I’m replying so late, but oh my go, Jen! That got me! I’m really excited to read it. But, nope, work (in general) is still kicking my butt, but I have my boxing gloves on and I think I’ve given it a few good punches. LOL!

I really need to finally read R.S. Grey! I’ve had her books on my TBR for so long. Fun fact: I have the same name as her daughter and when she was pregnant she sent me a direct message to see if I liked my name or grew up wishing I had a different one, I always thought that was so cool!
