The Doctor and the Midwife by Sarah Alva, Book Review



Book Summary:

As a midwife running her own home birth practice, Audrey Novak deals with pressure like a superhuman. Until, that is, she meets her handsome and arrogant neighbor, Dr. Ammon Parker. Ammon, who believes only in modern medicine, is just as unprepared for the infuriating---and inconveniently beautiful---midwife. When the two are repeatedly called to the same labor and delivery unit, their clashing ideals and fiercely independent personalities threaten to derail both their professional goals and their pride. 

Outside of work, Audrey is a passionate rock climber, tantalized by a secret route she's heard about in an online forum. Her hunt for the climb's location leads her to the intriguing BelayingonofHands, a man who claims to have set the route. Soon their anonymous virtual flirtation and witty exchanges deepen into a true connection. But when Audrey discovers the man from online is actually Ammon, she's blindsided. It seems they have more in common than she could have imagined, but will their differences keep them from making the climb to true love together?


My Review:

Audrey and Ammon's story was so engaging! I loved the fire, spark, and rhetoric between the two of them. Every time they were together there was that angst and fiery spirited conversation, I could not get enough of it! The fire and passion each one possessed for their profession made sparks fly while their opinions clashed. I could feel the heat from their arguments and so many burning comments. Their online relationship showed a kinder and more open side to both of them. I felt like they could be their true selves when not under scrutiny. There are laugh out loud moments, emotional moments, and moments where I wanted to cry. This book is LDS fiction at its best and I cannot wait for more from Alva! 

Happy Reading!!!
