RJ Nolan

Veteran police officer Sam McKenna has no trouble facing down criminals on a daily basis but breaks out in a sweat at the mere mention of commitment. A recent failed relationship strengthens her resolve to stick with her trademark no-strings-attached affairs. Dr. Riley Connolly, a successful trauma surgeon, has spent her whole life trying to measure up to her family's expectations. And that includes hiding her sexuality from them. When a routine call sends Sam to the hospital where Riley works, the two women are hurtled into a life-and-death situation. The incident binds them together. But can there be any future for a commitment-phobic cop and a closeted, workaholic doctor?

Really enjoyed this book. I'd been waiting impatiently for it. I was a big fan of the series when she posted the stories online years ago. I was expecting the book to be the same as the previous version with a few changes here and there. However instead Nolan rewrote the book making sweeping changes but yet it was just as enjoyable if not better. The differences puts more emphasis on the two main characters, Sam & Riley as they develop their friendship and relationship. There was less of the supporting characters such as Sam's family - Jess & Kim from the first book LA Metro. Even though there was less of them the supporting cast were well characterized including a few new additions. I am looking forward the the sequel! I hope it's not a long wait.

I've read LA Metro (the 1s in the series) twice and gave it 4* twice. When I began In a Heartbeat, I was a bit worried because Riley's issues reminded me a little too much of Jess'. But it didn't last, and I really enjoyed the chemistry between Riley and Sam, and everything around them. I really like how R. J. Nolan doesn't shy away from complex and difficult topics.

Too much of crying, whining, insecurity. And I know romance novels are full of those but this was extreme. And in the end, it was all too boring. Truthfully, I would have preferred to read the story of Kim and Jess instead. 

Edit- 

It turns out there IS a Kim and Jess novel. Going to pick that up next, hopefully, it's been executed better than this.
