Publisher's Summary

Willow Taylor lives in a castle with large walls and iron fences. But this is no ordinary castle. It’s called Heartstone Psychiatric Hospital and it houses 40 other patients. It has nurses with mean faces and techs with permanent frowns.

It has a man, as well. A man who is cold and distant. Whose voice drips with authority. And whose piercing gray eyes hide secrets, and maybe linger on her face a second too long.

Willow isn’t supposed to look deep into those eyes. She isn’t supposed to try to read his tightly-leashed emotions. Neither is she supposed to touch herself at night, imagining his powerful voice and that cold but beautiful face.

No, Willow Taylor shouldn’t be attracted to Simon Blackwood at all.

Because she’s a patient and he’s her doctor. Her psychiatrist.

The medicine man.

WOW....just..Wow!!!!!

I must say it broke my heart to read the low ratings and the negative reviews this book has gotten. This book was one of the most incredibly, beautiful,eye opening books I’ve ever listened to. I’ve read a lot but this book is by far my second favorite book ever. Wow the emotion and love and inspiration it gives off. The narration was perfect. I felt like I was walking beside both characters understanding them as if I was right there. Please please please give this book a chance. I promise only a snotty prude would give a negative review. Definitely worth 10 credits.

4 1/2 STARS

Amazing forbidden romance! I was pulled into this story by Willow. I was rooting for her the whole way and of course for her friends. Simon also has demons he is battling and I felt his struggle. While there are some steamy scenes there are also some really sad moments. You will definitely feel an array of emotions while listening. The book is told mostly in Willows POV. Narration was great both are very talented narrators. Jason Clarke has such a smexy voice and I hope he narrates more romance books. Shayna has a great voice too but her voice did not match the youthful one I imagined Willow to have. Huge slip in this audio! The 2 chapters before the epilogue are out of order and it SPOILS ending. I hope they fix it for future listeners.

Most important chapters at the end transposed.

I had to order the book after listening and read the end to understand what was going on. What I found is that the two chapters before the epilogue were switched. So you hear the ending without knowing why it ended that way.

A new Favorite By Author

First I have to say Narrator Shayna Thibodeau did a great job especially since most of the book is told in Willow's POV. i would've loved dual narration to hear more from Jason Carpenter. but still she did an outstanding performance taking this heartaching story to a new level. Saffron A Kent placed me on an emotional beat down with this story, I CRIED, smiled and blushed thru this entire book, I was so engaged in what I was listening the world around me could be ending and I'd be non the wiser, truly this forbidden love story Is one everyone Needs to be READ.

So beautifully imperfect

This was such a great story of love in its most vulnerable and imperfect state. I love how it shed light on mental illness and really gave great perspective to a taboo topic. The love the two shared was genuine and very hot!

Good but problem with chapter order

This was great :-) taboo, patient doctor - age gap but great. No cheating/OW drama and brings out a range of emotions. Fab narration. BUT the last two chapters before the epilogue are in the wrong order. So listen in this order unless the author fixes it (listing what you will hear next to what chapter audible will say so you can tell if it’s been fixed). 26 “chapter 23 - female - when Ren told me” 28 “Medicine Man - Male - I never thought I’d” 27 “chapter 24 - female - I love the rain” Epilogue - female- “5 years later” Anyways def give this a chance!!

Phenomenal performance

Great story, like always author gives studium of individual emotions and struggles. It is pleasure to read and study it. Phenomenal performance- expecially female.

Amazing

I didn’t know what to expect from this book. In the end i couldn’t put it down. Awesome read/listen.

Loved it

Great narrator. Low angst taboo romance. It was funny to read and see Willow flourish into a strong woman with the will to live
