Willow Taylor lives in a castle with large walls and iron fences. But
this is no ordinary castle. It’s called Heartstone Psychiatric hospital and it
houses forty other patients. It has nurses with mean faces and techs with
permanent frowns.
It has a man, as well. A man who is cold and distant. Whose voice drips
with authority. And whose piercing gray eyes hide secrets, and maybe linger on
her face a second too long.
Willow isn’t supposed to look deep into those eyes. She isn’t supposed
to try to read his tightly leashed emotions. And neither is she supposed to
touch herself at night, imagining his powerful voice and that cold but
beautiful face.
No, Willow Taylor shouldn’t be attracted to Simon Blackwood, at all.
Because she’s a patient and he’s her doctor. Her psychiatrist.
The medicine man.
WARNING: This book discusses sensitive issues including but not limited
to, depression and suicide.

EXCERPT
“Do you have someone special, Dr. Blackwood?”
Someone you kiss? Someone you grab and pull into a dark alley
and press against
walls?
I don’t say that but I’m definitely asking that.
It’s like he hears the unspoken questions because the heat of
his body seems to have
doubled. Like his blood is rushing in his veins with an uncanny
speed.
With flaring nostrils and a hard jaw, he answers, “No.”
“Why not?”
“Because I’m busy.”
I want to smile. Actually, I’ve never wanted to smile this hard.
Ever. His answer calms
me but it also makes me restless to move closer to him. I want
to trace my palm over the arch
of his chest and see if I got it right in my dreams.
But I don’t do any of those things. I don’t want him to take
away this small concession
he’s given me.
Why is he even giving it to me? I’m not complaining. But still.
“Busy with patients?”
“Busy with my job. Yes,” he says, all professional-like.
That’s what he is. Professional and distant. Dedicated to his
job and fixing people. If
Mass General let him go, then they are idiots.
I’m an idiot, too, in this moment.
Instead of backing off, I want to do something. Something that
might crack his cool
façade. Maybe reaching up and messing up his no-nonsense hair.
What would he do? If I did that? If I grabbed his collar and
pushed him against the wall?
And kissed him?
My eyes drop to his lips, his soft, soft lips. There’s a cleft
in the middle of his lower lip. I
want to taste that cleft, dig my tongue in it, wet it, suck on
it, bite it.
“So you don’t have fun at all?”
“No. I’m not a fun guy.”
I watch his lips form the words, and every syllable that comes
out of his mouth makes
my need to shake him, kiss him, mess him up, stronger. Stronger
and stronger.
The need is so consuming that I hardly notice when he puts his
hand on my palm and
takes it off his body. It’s final and smooth, his action.
Effortless. As though my touch barely
registered to him.
“But I think you have a point. It’s after hours and I should go…
have fun rather than
spending my time with a patient.” He steps back then. “I’ll see
you next week. Same time.”

REVIEW: This is my favorite novel by Saffron A Kent to date! MEDICINE MAN has blown my book lovers mind! 😁🤯😍 It was a deliciously addictive forbidden romance like no other. And OH.EM.GEE, the slow burn and angst from their forbidden relationship was OFF THE CHARTS and had my heart racing and had me tingling all over! The encounters and stolen glances between Simon (Dr.Blackwood) and Willow left me breathless!🔥😏 They are perfect together!
Saffron's writing was FLAWLESS and captivating from the very beginning and as I said, UTTERLY ADDICTIVE! And this is one addiction I am NOT looking for a cure for 😏 I have stayed up WAY past my bedtime several nights and I endured withdrawals when I wasn't consuming this book. Simon and Willow were constantly on my mind!
The characters were complex. Everything about them is intriguing. Willow is the perfect amount of quirky that makes her instantly lovable and Simon... Oh Simon, Simon, Simon. 👓👨⚕️He's EVERYTHING. He's distant and aloof, but always watching and protecting. He tries so hard to resist this pull to Willow, but it's futile. They're inevitable!😍
Even though this book deals with a sensitive subject matter (depression), one that shouldn't be taken lightly, Saffron executes it with such finesse, care, and passion that it was impossible to not love the turbulent story that was Simon and Willow. The Ice King and his Snow Princess. These characters were flawed and have MANY issues and internal battles to contend with, but they are stronger because of those flaws and they find the strength through each other to LIVE each day as a gift and to get back up when they fall. We are born fighters. You'll have good days and then you'll have bad days, but you're a warrior and you have the strength to overcome anything life throws at you. YOU are your own hero in your life story, BUT if a King comes along who is willing to help carry your burdens, it's ok to use his strength. IT'S OK to show your weaknesses bc you're only human and no one is perfect.
If you want something different, something with depth, something with a deeper meaning...then this is the book for you! Trust me when I say u want to read this book. U WANT THIS BOOK!
