I loved the first book in this new series, it was really lovely.  This is book two and Frey and Renato have another emotional story to tell.  I loved Frey in Lane’s book, he was full of personality and a really good friend, you just knew his story would be amazing.  I loved seeing the person behind the humor and snark, he’s an amazing friend, a dedicated single father, and caring nurse to his patients.  He’s also developed quite the volatile relationship with Renato Agosti, the older, polished, and pretty callous surgeon he works with at the hospital.  There’s really animosity in their working relationship, Renato is bad tempered and quite harsh and Frey cannot stop himself from escalating things with his pranks.  The tension is excellent and made it so fun when it slowly starts to shift, you start to see how amazing their chemistry is and how much hurt they both carry.  The writing is quite beautiful, with authentic emotion, and characters that really stand out- E.M. Lindsey is a master at creating lovely and dimensional characters.  I’m not a fan of kids in romance generally, but Frey’s son Rex was a favorite of mine and his relationship with Renato so charming.  Renato is not always likable in this but his interactions with Rex really sold me on him.  Loved this one a lot, and that epilogue is about as perfect for these two as you can get.
