#AD Book Review: Cinderella and the Surgeon by Scarlet Wilson

Book 1 of the London Midwives Series, Cinderella and the Surgeon follows the storyline of hot tempered Scottish midwife, Esther Mcdonald clashing with upper class neonatal Surgeon  Harry Beaumont , Duke of Montrose when he arrives with his entourage of students, anaesthetists etc when he arrives at the Queen Victoria Hospital London. Her antipathy and dislike of Harry slowly dies away when he invites Esther to a glittering black tie. ball. Slowly a bond develop s between the pair who come from completely different backgrounds and a royal romance slowly develops between them. 

I found the characters to be very stereotypical: angry, prickly Scottish midwives and the posh Surgeon. It would be great if the roles could be reversed. A very clean romance interspersed with lots of medical action! 

I received this novel from Mills & Boon via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

  1. Very stereotypical indeed. A posh Duke neonatal surgeon?
    Medical action would make this readable for me.
