Ivy Chan has always known her destiny. She would be the best neurosurgeon in the state, or maybe the country. Better even than her father, whose shadow she's eager to escape. Ivy has always been a student above all. Friendships, hobbies and romance come second… or more often, not at all. She's in the home stretch now, the final year of medical school, and her surgical residency is within reach. All Ivy needs to do is stay the course. Which would be a hell of a lot easier if she hadn't had the misfortune of falling in love with her study partner. Chloe Barnes is the kind of girl who can command Ivy's attention even across a crowded Emergency Room. She's smart and witty, she makes friends with everyone she meets… she's the polar opposite of Ivy's reserved, cynical nature. And one unexpected kiss in the hospital locker room changes everything. It shoves Ivy off her chosen path… Leaves her questioning everything… And wanting more. This is the second book in the Lakeside Hospital series. Each book can be enjoyed as a stand-alone novel and the series can be read in any order.
