L.A. Metro by R.J. Nolan is a wonderfully sweet medical romance that tells the story of two doctors. Dr. Kimberly (Kim) Donovan is hired to work at L.A.

As colleagues, then frie ...more

Gosh, this was good. I have developed a real thing for medical romances (weirdly!) and I loved that this was a longer length novel with a slow burn. I loved our two MCs, who were both flawed but ultimately great people. Can't wait to continue on with this series. ...more

I can't say I was blown away by this book. It pretty much followed the basic formula for lesfic drama.

This was a reasonably enjoyable book(I am a fan of medical drama/ romance) however there were a couple of things I found distracting; the 2 main characters were very similar and I did find myself having to check at times who was who. The 2nd thing was the use of italics throughout the entire novel to tell me who was thinking something. I found this much way too much telling, not showing.
