help but want him. But neither can his millions of fans.
With fame, fortune, looks and charisma, Nathan Banks may have it all. But Dr
Sophia King wants nothing to do with him beyond treating him as any other
patient.
A family scandal and a childhood of media intrusion have left the reserved
doctor fiercely protective of her vulnerable family. But when a photo of Sophia
and Nathan together strips away her anonymity and exposes past secrets, she
must step into the limelight to protect her loved ones.
Intrigued by the man behind his famous persona, Sophia glimpses a life of fame
and glamour she’s never coveted. But Nathan comes with baggage, and the
screaming fans, the beautiful leading ladies and ruthless paparazzi are all
part of the deal.
How much is Sophia willing to endure to be with the man she loves, and how much
is Nathan willing to give up for the woman who has stolen his heart?

My Review:
has been on my TBR list for a long time now. Since I’m trying to shorten my TBR
list and reading more Netgalley books I decided it was time to start reading
this one. Although that cover doesn’t work for me at all, I was definitely
interested when I read the book description.
we meet Dr. Sophia King. Sophia is in New Zealand for a work/fun trip before
she’ll start her ‘real’ job in a hospital in London. When her boss sends her to
check up some celebrity she doesn’t know this celebrity is the famous sexy Hollywood
actor Nathan Banks. Nathan is everything Sophia doesn’t need in her life. At
least that is what she thinks. Nathan has paparazzi and beautiful woman surrounding
him all the time and Sophia just wants to work and be as ‘invisible’ as she can
possible be. But even though there lives couldn’t be more different if they
tried, the chemistry between them can’t be denied.
started reading ‘Recovery’ I thought I would be reading an easy, simple and
predictable romance story. I honestly didn’t expect a lot. And although this
book is definitely easy to follow, predictable in most parts and really
romantic and sexy I loved the book way more than I thought I would. I found
myself rushing to get back to reading until I finished the last page.
definitely a character I can relate too. She spends her life taking care of
other people, working hard and trying to not stand out to much. I enjoyed
reading about her. After she met Nathan I got frustrated with her a little at
times. I mean, I don’t know how I would react if the guy I was dating was surrounded
by beautiful woman and having to touch them for photoshoots and movie scenes,
but I wished she’d trust Nathan a little more. Thankfully she did this more and
more near the end of the book. And Nathan’s character.. well he is just so good
to read about. He is mysterious, sexy, charming and who doesn’t love a story
about a Hollywood star falling for a ‘normal’ person?! It’s the whole Nothing
Hill charm.. and since that is one of my favorite movies I love these kinds of stories.
romance between Sophia and Nathan was really enjoyable. Yes, it was predictable
but that didn’t make me love it less. There were lots of ‘sexy’ scenes through
out the book too, and they didn’t bore at all.
was definitely a book I enjoyed reading. I don’t think the cover does the book
justice though. But after reading it.. I’ll definitely want to read more books
in this series.
