My Thoughts
Lilli left her small town to start over after a huge loss. She had given her heart to a man who completely shattered it. So she changed where she lived and what she did for a living putting walls around her heart. She meet Chase who is the Dr. in charge of the rotation she is on as a case worker. Chase brings out feelings in her that she had long ago locked away. Unfortunately he has secrets of his own that caused him to back away from anything serious. That changes for him once Lilli comes into his life and brings the light back into his world.
I absolutely adore Lilli. She is sweet and compassionate and exactly what the Dr. needed. Chase is super sexy and bossy and protective. Their love is just huge. I especially loved Lilli and Chase's friends. Sierra is fantastic and made me laugh out loud throughout the book.
I give Beautifully Awake 4 hearts!

My Thoughts
I am head over heels for Asher. He's scorching hot and super sweet. He was a player for some time until that special girl came back into his life. Talia was his best friend for many years until they both suffered a tragic loss. Talia left without much of an explanation and Asher moved on as well. They didn't really move on though. They found when they reconnected that they had been waiting for each other. Their love was beautiful and overwhelming with a secret between them that could and would change everything not only for them but those they loved.
I so loved Asher and Talia's story of second chance love. My favorite moment wasn't theirs though. It was the speech at the wedding. I won't say more as I so don't want to ruin any part of your reading experience, but you will know exactly what I am talking about once you've finished.

About the Book
Diagnosis: Borrowed time
Treatment: Trust
Prognosis: Beautifully Done
Asher Craig drives fast, flies high, and screws hard. But make no mistake, he’s a gentleman.
He learned way too young that we’re all on borrowed time. Fair or unfair, you only get one ride.
He vows to live for the moment because it’s the only time he owns. The past is beyond his control and the future may not exist. With his only loyalties being his family, he thrives for that edge where plunging over is always in the realm of possibility.
When a beautiful familiar face tilts his axis, he re-examines everything and realizes that second chances are overrated and a lifetime of firsts are irreplaceable. In the end, it’s not her medical degree but his trust that needs to prove that the ride together is worth it ... until it’s Beautifully Done.
***Author's note***
Contains spoilers from Beautifully Awake. We highly recommend reading Chase and Lili's story first. For readers 18+

About the Authors
It only took twelve years, two husbands, five kids, two dogs, and a two-week vacation in Cape Cod later to decide the romance world needed a splash of medicine. Write what you know.
When we are not working on our book or reading the latest angsty romance on our kindles, you basically name it and we have it going on. Soccer, lacrosse, golf, swimming, dance, gymnastics, football, chess, baseball, basketball, skiing, ice skating, school, homework, and more school.
Oh yeah, did we forget to mention our careers in medicine?
Needless to say, we realized fast that something had to go, so we opted for sleep. It’s completely overrated (yet so AMAZING) and delirium makes everything funnier. Good thing we share a brain and can pretty much complete each other’s sentences (definitely weird, we know), otherwise it might have taken us two years to write Beautifully Awake rather than one.
So that’s our story, who we are … just add AUTHORS to the list!
