Synopsis

A lesbian medical romance about the powerful breakthroughs we can't always see.

Nadia Keating has barely started her cardiothoracic fellowship training, but she already has the archetype nailed—she's direct, uncompromising, and suffering from a God complex.

Before she can focus on her impressive research, deeply closeted Nadia has a personal project: getting her inconvenient attraction to women out of her system. She picks a stranger online for a one-night stand.

Ashley Rylan, the chief of Nadia's department, is her polar opposite—sweet, agreeable, and soft-spoken—and the stranger Nadia unwittingly chooses.

The two women's meeting is a hostile disaster and they would love nothing more than to never see each other again. However, their paths keep colliding as Nadia embarks on an ambitious experiment that could lead to a historic medical breakthrough.

Despite warring egos and the secrets they keep, their connection is powerful and growing. Maybe having sex would help them get over their distraction at work? Or would that just ruin everything?

Contains mature themes.

About Faith Prize

Growing up, Faith Prize had two dreams: to become a doctor and to write a book. She spent the last decade traveling the United States in pursuit of the former while neglecting the latter. Her sole writing experience consisted of generating bone-dry research articles. Fortunately, she came to her senses and decided that the two fields were not mutually exclusive. In fact, medicine is and always will be her muse. However, unlike her nonfiction work that is restricted by tangible facts, her fictional stories are filled with possibilities limited only by her imagination.

Sapphic Grey's Anatomy This is a good medical romance novel. The medical research done to put the story together is extensive and it’s written well enough for a layman reader to follow and it feels like a sapphic Grey's Anatomy, minus the sleaziness. The romance also has the spark I like. And what’s......more

5 Stars “The Fifth Surgeon” is the debut medical romance from Faith Prize. Prize is a doctor herself and it shows in the writing. This is well written and I loved just about everything about it.

This book is a fantastic debut novel. Congratulations Faith Prize, you did a fabulous job. A medical romance that contains everything it needs. Two MCs who are pretty much opposites, medical action, a glimpse into the organ transplant future, hot sex, and finally love. What more could you ask for? Nad......more

17/08/2021: I LOVED THIS SO MUCH!! The story, the medical stuff, both MCs and even the side characters!! So perfect!! I mean, there was only one tiny thing missing in the end because Ashley always wanted to get married and I wish that had happened, but as I said, that’s a tiny detail in a very beaut......more
