This was one of those books I get at the flee market for 25 cents...I'd started it a while back and gave up on it and decided to finish it this afternoon. While the idea was cute the dialogue and internal monologues were lacking. It was too stilted...

This was a sweet quick read. You will learn how grueling medical school is to become a doctor. It seems everything else takes a back seat. Connor and Mia have been best friends for three years. Then he learns of his six year old daughter that he never knew he had. To say he was overwhelmed was an understatement. How would he become a good father and continue medical school? School consumes him now how can he fit his daughter in? Leave it to Mia to come to his rescue. Can this work? I really enjoyed this book.
