Tracy's Review:

*This copy was provided to me by the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review*

I was really stoked to get to read this book. All of the stories are centered around Tulane Medical Center, in New Orleans. I work about a half a mile from this hospital, so it all takes place in my backyard.


Off Duty by Sawyer Bennett

4 stars

Tim is a FDNY Firefighter on vacation with his son, visiting his sister in New Orleans. When his son gets hurt, Tim takes him to the hospital. After a frustrating wait in the emergency room when the doctor finally walks in to see his son, Tim is shocked to find Holly his high school sweetheart walk through the door.

Holly an emergency room doctor is just as shocked to see Tim. Will these two get a second chance at first love?

This was a well written and enjoyable story. It dealt with a touchy subject matter, interracial relationships. I thought the topic was handled well. The story flowed well and the characters had a good chemistry. I loved the interaction between not only the two main characters, but Tim's son as well.

Rebound by Chelle Bliss

4.5 Stars

After having his heart broken when the only girl he has ever wanted chooses another guy, FBI Agent, Sam heads to New Orleans for the weekend. He meets a nurse, Fiona, at The Funky Pirate, a bar on Bourbon Street while trying to drown his sorrows in gin.

Fiona, broken hearted after a recent divorce sits next to Sam at the Funky Pirate. They share their heartbreaks, then Fiona takes Sam on a tour of the Quarter. Will one weekend be enough?

This was a really good story. It flowed well and I enjoyed the authors tour of Jackson Square. The characters were both very likable, and the author left me wanting more, in a good way.

Wanting to Forget A Jordie Thomas Tale by Toni Aleo

2.5 Stars

I am not sure how to rate this book. Jordie, is a professional hockey player who is recovering from a leg injury. He is in love with Kasey, his BFF's sister, but for some reason feels he can't be with her.

As the story begins, he has just told her he can't be involved in a long term relationship. After Kasey leaves, he decides to drink himself numb. He gets a text from his buddy in New Orleans and takes him up on his offer to visit for the weekend. If he can't drink himself numb, he will just try to screw his feelings away.

Umm... Can I just say that I really didn't like Jodie. He is a PIG. His friend is an even bigger pig, and as a New Orleanian I was actually kind of insulted by their opinion of the women in New Orleans. I REALLY hope this isn't the author’s true opinion!!

Listening to Jordie's thoughts I would start to feel bad for him, then he would say something about other women that weren't Kasey and any sympathy I had for him flew out the window. He was just a really sexist pig, and I think this author will have to perform a miracle to make him a likable character in his book.


Closet Confessions by Kindle Alexander

5 Stars

I loved Kindle's story. Of course I haven't read anything by Kindle that I haven't loved. I am not sure she is capable of writing a bad story!

Kindle took me by surprise and I never expected this story to go in the direction it did, but I absolutely loved it.

Derek and Justin had an amazing chemistry, the sex was hot and Kindle left me wanting more! My only complaint is not really a complaint, I just wish I could have gotten a full length novel, but I loved what I got!

Joss is an OBGYN at TMC. they meet when Joss pages Carson's dept. to fix the AC in her room for her research project.

This was a really good story. Both the MC's where very likable. They had a good chemistry. The story was well written and flowed well. This was a sweet and enjoyable read.

Swimming in Shadows by Eden Butler

4 Stars

Neil Ryan heads to New Orleans to try to find clues to an old murder. He runs into trouble, his best friend, and an old flame while visiting New Orleans. Ryan was an interesting character, he was likeable and the story was intriguing. I am looking forward to reading his book.

All in all most of these stories were well written and I liked the characters!
