Love Sick - by Deidra Duncan (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

"Heartfelt and smart, Love Sick is just what the doctor ordered."--Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka, authors of The Breakup Tour

Their bedside manner needs a little work...
Love may be the best medicine, but first-year resident Grace Rose isn't prescribing it anytime soon. Not since her ex broke her heart in med school, and especially not since hearing the rumor that she slept her way into the OB-GYN program. (Spoiler alert: So not true.) With her social anxiety already in full spiral, Grace is determined to set the record straight. But after a tense first encounter with fellow resident Julian Santini--with his annoying good looks and witty charm--she realizes that her reputation may never fully recover.

Julian didn't mean to offend Grace. After all, he's just as fed up with the toxic "BrOB-GYN" culture as she is. He's got his own drama to triage anyway--like proving that he earned his spot in this residency, not simply lucked into it. Still, something about Grace gets under his skin...and not always in a bad way.

Forced to work together through grueling shifts and sleepless nights, Grace and Julian try to cut back on the bickering for the sake of their training. Before long, however, a different kind of tension exposes the cracks in their truce. With their hearts in critical condition, will they accept that love is the best remedy of all?

Grey's Anatomy meets The Hating Game in this delicious, laugh out loud rom-com set in the world of a tight-knit group of OB-GYN residents--written by a practicing physician.

For fans of:

• Workplace Enemies to Lovers
• Close Proximity
• Medical drama from a real doctor
• Pulse (on Netflix) meets The Love Hypothesis with a hint of Scrubs
