Not just a toaster oven, a chrome-plated toaster oven.

I enjoyed listening to this Radclyffe classic. She took the time to develops solid leads in Wynter and Pearce and built a story with a lot of depth thanks to strong secondary characters and her vast knowledge of the inner workings of large hospitals.

There were times when the telling of life as a resident overwhelmed the showing of a surgeon's life. Also Wynter was too good to be true. Almost a caricature of the clueless hetero woman discovering her attraction to the lesbian Chief Resident with a reputation for being a player.

In the end, what saves the book is the growth seen in said play girl, Pearce. It was a pleasure to watch her learn to trust and to care for one woman. Her relationship with Wynter develops slowly and pushes all of the doubts, loneliness and isolation felt by Pearce into the past.
