I was a part of the blog tour forthis book and it one you definitley need to go out and buy. Here's a copy of my review. 


Lili Porter was a social worker in the small town of Wrangel, until she fled and went to join her best friend Sierra and became a case worker at the local hospital. Lili loves her job she has good friends. But she has a wall erected around her emotions higher than the great wall  of china, and NOTHING gets past it. Until the new attending starts.

"Storm cloud grey eyes locked with mine and cut me like glass. It was hard to tell if it was deliberation or anger, but his intensity startled me.  My breathe hitched and I took a step back"

Chase Colton( Dr Bossy, Dr Jealous, Dr Possessive) is the new attending and as soon as he sees lili he starts to feel thing he's not allowed himself to feel for years. The attraction is intense. Lili and Chase both have to face the demons so the can stop running.

Wow, Wow, Wow. I freaking LOVED this book. I was reading it on my lunch break in work-NOT ADVISED, I was 14% into the book and wanted to lock myself in a room. I was so tempted to ditch work and carry on reading. This book compelled me from the start and I didn't want to stop reading till I finished.

I literary don't want to say too much about this book for the fear of spoiling it. Riley Mackenzie does a fantastic job with this book, you can easily picture everything they write, see everything they write about as if you were there.

I loved all of the characters, I couldn't pick one favourite, ok that was a lie, Chase............ Girls we have another Hot, Sexy, Alpha Male for our list.

I LOVED the cover, from the first time I seen it I was intrigued. For a Debut Book it is stunning and compelling. This is the book that long after you have read it you still think about it.  I would read this again and again. I loved that this was set around medicine.

The topics they write about are current, the one thing you could take from this book would be that if you want something you have to stop running and fight for what you want.

I have lots of quotes that I highlighted that I was going to use, but I decided to hold on to them because I don't want to spoil it for you but I am going to use these two final ones.

Lili- " I don't want to run anymore, im just so tied of sleep running"

Chase " Im not going anywhere, baby, I want you awake and I definitely want our life playing out live because I don't want to miss a fucking second of it"

This book you have to read. It is stunningly wrote, it compels you from the beginning. Its amazing to read.

Riley Mackenzie, I loved reading every second of this book, thank you, I cant wait to read more of what you write.


This book gets 5/5 stars and 5/5 for movie moments.

Watch out for the Blog tour coming in march for the second book Beautifully Done
