Hi,
you’ve probably read my guest post about medical romance on T.B. Markinson’s wonderful I Heart Lesfic.
If you didn’t, you can find it here.
To celebrate the release of my first novel, I’m doing a giveaway.
One reader can win either a signed paperback or an ebook of Irregular Heartbeat, winner’s choice.
Just answer the following question in the comment (or mail it to me):
What is your favorite lesbian or woman-loving-woman medical romance?
(You have two weeks until November 9th to post or mail your answer.)
If vet counts too it’s Manda Scott’s Hen’s teeth. I have read a couple of times so far.
Vets count, absolutely. Haven’t heard of this book and will check it out.
Oh, I hadn’t heard of Hen’s teeth in such a long time! I loved it.
Fated Love by Radcylffe
Good one.
Hey Chris !!
Yeahhhhhhhhh !!! A giveway … What a wonderful idea !! 🙂
I’m not ashamed to confess that I LOVE my growing collection of signed copies (paperbacks)
Based on what I’ve read until now in the lesbian / woman-loving-woman medical romance category, here are my favorites (there are all at the same level for different reasons …) :
°Erin Wade’s “The Roughneck and the Lady”
°J’ae’s “Heart Trouble” & “Falling Hard”
°RJ Nolan ‘s complete L.A. Metro Series (“L.A. Metro” + “In a Heartbeat” & “Wounded Souls”)
Good luck everyone !!
I love my paperback collection too. I haven’t read The Roughneck and the Lady. I’ll put it on my list.
Hey there !!
Of course, I meant “Jae” … :p 😉 (sorry about that … 🙂 )
Ahhh that’s cool to meet another paperbacks lover !! I read more and more ebooks on the laptop (usually in PDF since kindle/mobi doesn’t work over here and EPUB is a catastrophe since a couple of W10 updates) but it’s really not the same, and it’s also very tiring for my poor green eyes …
I LOVED “The Roughneck and the Lady” !! I’ll definitely re-read it … someday (for now I have so many books to read that I don’t have any time to re-read anything. LOL). Think you should appreciate Erin’s novel, it’s a great one !!!
Oh, BTW => Happy Halloween !!

Hi Chris.
So far, my favorite Medical Romance would be Jae’s ‘Heart Trouble’.
Maybe in the near future I can say that it is your book.
I don’t know if I want to kick Jae from the favorite position, but I certainly hope you’ll enjoy my book.
Hi Chris
I love any book by Radclyffe. Too many to mention. I also love Heart Trouble by Jae.
I’d like to wish everyone good luck.
Radclyffe has written many great medical romances.
Don’t know if this is strictly speaking a medical romance, but a lot of it happens in a hospital, one of the main characters is a neurosurgeon, the other an ER nurse. G Benson: Who’d Have Thought. It’s brilliant!
If my opinion counts: it’s absolutely a medical romance, and a great novel.
Hi Chris,
Thank you for doing a giveaway.
So many good medical romance. Tons of Radclyffe. 1st Responders and the River Series. My all time favorite Fated Love. But I just finished just Jae’s Heart Trouble and loved it.
I love all the books you listed. I just finished a re-re-re-re-read of Fated Love last week.
Medical Romance- one of my favorite. I like everything from this section! All Books by Radclyffe – where she has a lot of characters as doctors including her Latest “Passionate Rivals” which was excellent. I also got into Books from Camryn Eyde which are pretty sweet!
I would love to add yours to my collection.
I hope you can add mine soon. If you don’t win, there’s always amazon… 😉
That is a tough question and difficult to narrow down. There are so many good books playing in a medical environment but I especially liked Radclyffe’s Crossroads, the First Responders Series and the River Community novels.
I also enjoyed Lynne Norris’ Second Chances and Emily Smith’s Searching for Forever.
I have the same problem, I can’t really name a favorite.
KD Williamson combines two of my favorites, cops & docs in her Between The Lines series! I hope that counts! I would love to add yours to my library!
That definitely counts. I love her books.
I’ve only read a few medical romances, but the most recent was one I really enjoyed – Cara Malone, Love Trauma. I was especially drawn to Darcy who was a combat medic.
As a side note, I also enjoyed Who’d have thought. And others.
Ooh, I haven’t read Love Trauma yet. I add it to my ever-growing list.
My Favorites…
G Benson’s “Who’d Have Thought” (it’s phenomenal, no exaggeration; will re-read year after year)
Radclyffe’s “Fated Love” (one of the first wlw books I read; re-read often and it still delights)
I look forward to reading your wlw medical romance, “Irregular Heartbeat”, and Tegan Shepard’s wlw medical romance, “Vising Hours”. Also want to read the following wlw medical romance series: RJ Nolan’s LA Metro series, KD Williamson’s Cops & Docs series, Camryn Eyde’s Tricky series, and latest ones of Radclyffe’s Rivers Community series.
LA Metro is such a wonderful book. I re-read it regularly.
Heart Trouble by Jae, if I have to pick one. There are so many good ones out there it’s hard to choose. 🙂
Good choice. I love it too. 🙂
I like the L.A Metro series and started recently reading the cops and docs blurred lines series. Both brilliant, but most hospital romance I like. There is too many just to choose one.
I love LA Metro.
It’s a toss up between “heart trouble” by jae and “all that matters” by susan x meagher
But ultimately i couldn’t actually choose just one book and since this is one of my favorite genre it’s double hard 😀
All That Matters is very different from the rest, but I love it very much too.
The one medical romance book that i read that really stuck with me was fated love by Radcliffe. Im super excite to see you have one. Cant wait to read your work.
No-one can compete with Fated Love, but I hope you’ll enjoy my book too.
Wooo a giveaway. Really enjoyed this one. Wonderful debut. <3 But to your question… I would say if I had to choose a top favorite medical romance then definitely 'Heart Trouble' by Jae.
Thank you. 🙂
My Favorites…
G Benson’s “Who’d Have Thought” (it’s phenomenal, no exaggerations; will re-read it year after year)
Radclyffe’s “Fated Love” (one of the 1st wlw books I read; re-read often and it still delights)
I look forward to reading your wlw medical romance “Irregular Heartbeat” and Tegan Shepard’s “Visiting Hours”. Also want to read (or continue to read) the following wlw medical romances series: RJ Nolan’s LA Metro series, KD Williamson’s Cops & Docs series, Camryn Edye’s Tricky series, Radclyffe’s Rivers Community series, and Radclyffe’s PMC Hospital series (Fated Love is book 1 in that series).
Who’d Have Thought is great and I really love her take on the fake relationship trope.
I enjoyed Heart Trouble by Jae, Tricky Wisdom by Camryn Eyde and I Belong with Her by Domina Alexandra, among others.
I haven’t heard of I Belong with Her, I’ll check it out.
Fated Love by Radcliffe.
Definitely a favorite.
First of all thank you for doing this, it’s a great idea. It’s always hard to choose just one, there are so many good ones. There is Falling Hard by Jae, love that one. But I also love KD Williamson Cops and Docs series. Ok I’ll stop there or I’ll never finish ;p
You’re welcome. Falling Hard is great, Jordan is one of my all time favorite characters.
There are many I love, but standouts are Fated Love by Radclyffe, and Heart Trouble by Jae. Looking forward to reading your book.
I hope you’ll enjoy it.
Oh gosh well aside from saying your book is now up there in wlw medical romances my favourite of all time is G Bensons “All the Little Moments”.
No, say it… please. 😉
My favorite is probably Who’d Have Thought by G Benson but I’m also quite the fan of Blurred Lines and the rest of the Cops and Docs series by KD Williamson.
Great books.
Thanks for giving away your book. Would love to add it to my reading list(probably will even if I don’t win,lol).
Medical romance is my fave genre.
All med romances by Radclyffe,especially the PMC and Rivers docs. Jae’s Heart Trouble and Falling Hard. Cops and Docs series by KD Williamson. Heartsick by Tracey Richardson. I have to stop there or this post will go on forever!
You’re the first to mention Heartsick. Such a great book.
I enjoyed many of Radclyffe’s medical romances. As a favourite, I think I’d choose All the Little Moments by G. Benson. Apart from those, I haven’t read too many other lesbian medical romances, so I think it would be a good idea to branch out and try a new author like you!
I can only encourage you to branch out and try a debut author. 😉 Or maybe you’ll find more inspiration in the other comments.
I love Radcliffe’s “Fated Love” , but my all time favorite is “Lights of the Heart” by Nat Burns. While working at an accident scene the doctor is injuries when a gas tank explodes and the doctor suffers through TBI. Her medical assistant stands by her during the long recovery period. What was so interesting is that Nat Burns herself suffered through TBI.
I’ve read this one too, good choice. 🙂
Ask, Tell by E.J. Noyes is pretty good. The main character’s thought processes are pretty funny.
That book is great. Usually, I don’t like first person POV, but the author handled it wonderful. Sabine is hilarious.
Falling Hard, by Jae! I loved it!
Wonderful book. 🙂
So many to choose from but Fated Love – Radclyffe has the edge.
Your own Irregular Heartbeat, Lights of the Heart – Nat Burns, Heart Trouble – Jae and the Mero Series – RJ Nolan are among so many other good ones. I read the ARC version of Irregular Heartbeat and rated it 4 stars. Very happy that you’re writing full length books now and can’t wait to read more. Wonderful idea to have the signed giveaway!
Thank you. And I‘m feeling with you, too many Gibson’s to choose. 🙂
Love on call by Radcliffe
Good choice. 🙂
Hi Chris,
I really enjoy reading about the military / medical stories. A Long Wway Home by Roslyn Bane is a really good read
I loved that book as well. Great depiction of PTSD.
The Origins of Heartbreak by Cara Malone.
It’s on my list. 🙂
I really like Jae’s Heart Trouble a lot. I haven’t read a lot of medical romances yet, but so far I’ve really enjoyed them.
Not a novel, but the webcomic Pulse by Ratana Satis is really good too.
I haven’t heard about Pulse and will check it out.
Think mine would have to be Passion’s Bright Fury by Radclyffe, but love R J Nolan’s LA Metro series too.
Difficult choice. I love them both for different reasons.
I don’t have any signed paperbacks yet and would love this one since it was one of the greatest medical romance books I’ve read along with who’d have thought
Thank you. 🙂
Love all
RJ Nolan books but favorite characters are Kim and Jess
Radclyffe books but favorite characters are Honor and Quinn
KD Williamson books but favorite characters are Kellie and Nora
JA Armstrong Special Delivery series
I can relate to loving all of them.
Passions bright fury by Radclyffe. Fingers crossed, so exciting.
Always a great choice.
Yeah, Fated Love still wins for me, although there are many good ones these days!
Love that one too.
Falling Hard by Jae I love medical romances. I can’t wait to read Irregular Heartbeat.
Jordan is one of my favorite’s.
Well, if I have to choose just one, this month (LOL) I would have to choose Jae’s, Heart Trouble.
I couldn’t choose, that’s why I asked.
Has to be Tricky Wisdom and Tricky Chances by Camryn Eyde – both have been re reads several times and waiting for the last book in the series to be released
I haven’t read them, but they are already on my tbr list.
This is definitely one of my new favorites! I also love LA Metro by RJ Nolan, Fated Love by Radclyffe, & Between the Lines by KD Williamson
Thank you. I’m honored to be included in that list.
My current fave is Who’d Have Thought by G Benson. I’m a sucker for the fake dating trope and maybe it’s just been a bit since I’ve dug into some lesfic but I was really pleasantly surprised by the representation present in it, keeping up with the world today so it at least resembles the one I know.
I love fake dating. I need to come up with a good variation on that trope.
Has to be The Velvet series by Diane Kane and Quid pro Quo by Sheryl Hancock
I haven’t come across them and I need to look them up.
LA metro by RJ Nolan plus any of the LA metro series, also Grace falls and Saving grace by HP Munro
Oh, I haven’t reread the last to ones for a while. Good choice.
I have a HUGE list of favorites, but my #1 (so far) has to be Jae’s ‘Heart Trouble’, followed very closely by Radclyffe’s ‘Fated Love’. I’m a sucker for a good medical romance.
Both are on the top of my list too.
I am a fan of Radclyffes medical romances.
Love them too.
Wow, I feel like saying all of the above and I’m also taking notes for the ones I haven’t read. Ask, Tell, though, had that military/medical mashup that I love. One I don’t think was mentioned is Fusion by Diana Kane. No worries about your book because it’s at the top of my Amazon wish list so it’ll be in my library soon anyway.
I haven’t heard of Fusion, need to look it up right away.
Thanks for the giveaway.
My favorite was Roslyn Bane’s
Long way home.
Wonderful book.
Can I just say I agree with all of the above?? I did enjoy the Cara Malone Lakeside Hospital series as well.
All of the above is a valid answer. I have the same problem.
Def “Flinging It” by G Benson. Both of the women work in the hospital and I believe one is a midwife.
Haven’t read that one yet. 🙂
I enjoy the cops and docs series by kd Williamson and the LA Metro series by RJ Nolan.
Both series are great.
