by Suzanne Jenkins (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.2 out of 5 stars 71 ratings
She Never Expected to Find Love in the ICU

Nurse Lisa Penn’s mother hoped she’d meet a doctor to marry at work, but fate had something else in mind. Never expecting to find romance in the ICU, Lisa knew when patient Oscar Butler was admitted after a near-fatal motorcycle accident, that he might be the love of her life.

A chance meeting a few months later would bring them together again. But Oscar’s determination not to rush into love, hoping that taking their time will make it last causes Lisa to have second thoughts. Will waiting for that perfect moment to take their relationship to the next level ever come, or does fate have other ideas?

    I love this whole series, and this book was just as wonderful as the other books in the series. Suzanne Jenkins is a wonderful writer who knows how to draw you in with her well-developed characters and unique storylines. I never know where the plots will take me, and Oscar and Lisa definitely take you on a wild ride!

    Lisa nursed Oliver back to health after a bus crashed into him on his motor cycle. She fell in love with him as soon as she met him. Once released from hospital they started to date. They were blissfully happy!
    However, she was disappointed that he wanted to wait until they were married. Respect for her was his reason. Sadly, she had inherited enough of her mothers snobbery to desperately want a big stone unaffordable house.
    Her snobbish mother could not bear her younger daughter to marry him because he was a mechanic, therefore not good enough for their professional family. She did not care how much they loved each other. I loved that Oliver remained very respectful to her mother, even sitting with her in hospital all night to allow her husband and daughter to sleep after she had a heart attack.
    Martha, Lisa's mother, despised him.
    She slyly introduced her daughter to a handsome doctor even going as far as to invite him to live in their home.
    Eventually Lisa broke up with Oliver to do what her mother demanded, not understanding her mother's narcisstic ways. Her mother's way was all that counted.
    Both Lisa and Oliver were miserable despite being partnered to other people.
    I loved the surprise ending, but especially her dad's belated role. So nice when a man is a man!

    Overall, I really enjoyed it. However, I too wanted more of an ending or epilogue or explanation to salve the broken hearts and keep it more real as the main part of the book was. Instead, t was an exciting, but too abrupt and corny of an ending. Had he appeared even a few days earlier, it would have been more realistic.
    Also, I realize this is just personal taste, but why did her special dress for Valentine's Day sound like something a barmaid would wear in an old West movie? Karla

    A well written unique story. Although normally I'm a reader of stories with the usual hea endings, I do love romance with a lot of twists. Life doesn't always go the way you want it to, and Suzanne's stories will keep you reading until the last page because they are so intriguing, you need to know what happens next. Not only did I enjoy this story, Oscar and Lisa, but I recommend the entire Bittersweets series.

    This is a romance between Oscar and Lisa, a biker, and the ICU nurse who cared for him in the hospital when he almost died in a bad accident. There were some nice romance scenes but overall I really did not get into the story. I thought the scene between Oscar and Terry at the wedding shower was disingenuous. Terry hates Oscar all this time and suddenly she is overcome with remorse and crying because he is so wonderful. This is not one of my favorite books by this author who I normally really enjoy.
