***I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review***Isabel Jenkins failed her emotional readiness exam for her residency. That means no residency at Johns Hopkins. Which throws her whole world upside down. What is she to do now? Izzy Jenkins is a surgeon. She has six months before she can take the test again. So now what?At her parents urging, she re-enrolls in college. Taking classes that dabble in a little bit of everything. Enter Marshall. The RA for her dorm floor. After pissing off her roommate royally for the last time, he decides to help her in her quest to prepare for taking that psych exam given by the "not a real doctor" psych doctor at the hospital.Marshall and Izzy end up spending a lot of time together doing everything from studying to dinner. They know each other's secrets and give each other advice on how to handle their secrets. But then Izzy realizes something. Are they helping each other or hurting each other? There's only one thing to do.I liked this story a lot. I would have given it 5 stars, but to me it seemed to start off a bit slow. I'm not sure if it was because I had a hard time connectiny to Izzy in the beginning or what my deal was. It made me laugh out loud and feel sorrow at the right times. This book was very well written. The author did her research for this book and it shows. I would definitely read more from Julie Cross!
