Publisher's summary

I was hired by Parker Memorial Hospital to not do my job. Don’t stop the orgies in the morgue. Don’t stop the Environmental Services director from running her escort business from the hospital. And especially don’t stop Dr. Michael Ford from turning Parker Memorial into the country’s horniest hospital. My name is Cassie Thurmond and I’m determined to not do as I’m told.

Could have been better

The story for this fell flat for me. There was no feelings, or passion, or really any relationship between the characters. once it reach a point in the story where some could have started the story ends.
The audio wasn't bad, but the story itself needed some work.

Good

I didn't know what to expect from this book. it took me a minute to get into but it was ok. I might have to listen to it again to get a better feel for it.

3.5 Stars Hospital with plenty of secrets and sex

This was maybe the raunchiest, most debauched story I’ve yet to come across. There were some twists I didn’t see coming which definitely made things interesting. But man, it was like one dirty scene after another.
I received a free copy and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Weird, but intriguing...

This is a weird, incredible story, but I couldn't help but stay tuned to hear how everything was going to go down. I wasn't sure who were the "bad" or "good" ones.

There was no real romantic development between Cassie & Michael. There were just a lot of steamy moments between them that didn't exactly paint a picture of them being madly in love. Also, Cassie was too enticed/distracted by several other players for me to fully buy in to her and Michael's sudden relationship in the end. The ending was incomplete, too. Probably to encourage us to get the next in the series?

The narration wasn't bad, but there were a few mispronounced words.

This is definitely only for readers 18+.

Not what I thought

I went into this story with one eye closed. I didn’t read any reviews any only read a small bit of the blurb.

I still enjoyed the story after I realized it shouldn’t be taken too seriously. It made me think of what those hospital drama shows would be if they had a real-life Human Resources department. You have to keep up with who is sleeping with who at the hospital, who is running a side business, and who is actually the bad guy.

If you enjoy steamy sex encounters in a short story this could be for you.

Fun listen

The storyline was good but the characters fell a little flat for me. I wish the MF character would have had more of a backbone, she could have been sassy and fun. Dr. Ford was great but could have been developed even more. If she would have denied him more and really pushed his buttons, their relationship could have been so much fun to uncover. That being said it was a fun listen. The boyfriend Si cracked me up and who wouldn't love Simon, who's character was so well developed I could picture him in my mind. I loved that cat! The narrator was good and I enjoyed listening to her bring the story to life. Overall, I would recommend this audiobook.

Quite naughty!

Well...if you want some naughtiness, this book has it in strides! At first, I was feeling I might have a hard time getting through the book since in my mind I can see all the violations waiting to happen. Then, I had to remember that this is fictional and in it's own way meant to be fun and sexy. Very interesting storyline, how it unfolds and all. Lots of HOT scene and quite funny ones too! If you aren't easily offended, then this is a good story to listen/read. Otherwise, if you moral compass is high in terms of hospital violations, leave this book behind for the rest of us to enjoy.

Hospital action

Quick "Grey's Anatomy meets The Client List" storyline with multiple character interactions.
Had to get used to (new to me) narrator's reading style
I struggled to figure out where the characters were going to end up and (unless I missed a section) there was a very quick resolution.

Overall okay

A short spicy read

Overall it was a pretty good story, a few of the scenes felt like they were written by a horny frat boy, but I enjoyed it. It feels like it is a snippet of a bigger story with little overall character development and an abrupt ending, but seriously the steamy scenes make it worth the listen.
