Irregular Heartbeat

By: Chris Zett

Narrated by: Abby Craden

After nearly a decade as a professional drummer, Diana Petrell leaves her rock-star life behind to continue her residency in emergency medicine. She's determined not to let anything stop her - not even falling in love with her aloof mentor, Dr. Emily Barnes.

Emily has only ever focused on her career as a senior attending in the emergency department, and she isn't happy about having to babysit a resident with a 10-year gap in her resume, no matter how intriguing she is.

But every time they work together, it's not just their patients' heartbeat that gets a little irregular. Soon, the once-clear lines between work and personal life begin to blur.

When Diana's unorthodox secret past is revealed, putting her job in jeopardy, Emily has to choose between her career and her relationship.

Contains mature themes.

Sometimes the cover attracts you to the soul.

Diana is beginning her residency after a nine year break. Emily will be the Dr who is her mentor. Can they keep their secrets and avoid the growing attraction? The connection between the two is so full of sparks. The story of those nine years, and Emily's life unfolds the most magnificently delicious story. Abby Craden gives life to these beautiful women and the cast at the hospital. This will be a relisten often. I loved it.

Wonderful storytelling!

I enjoy medical tv shows and books and this debut novel fits the bill brilliantly. Written with complex characters, Emily is rather cold and brusque as the attending physician who has to mentor and supervise Diana, the resident, who spent the last ten years as a drummer in a renowned rock band.

The writing is superb as each of these women face the demons of their pasts and navigate the drama among their colleagues. I really enjoyed the narration by the fabulous Abby Craden and am excited to read/listen to another from this new talent, Chris Zett!

Loved it!

I loved Irregular Heartbeat. Great combination of romance and medical drama. Abby Craden makes the listening that much better.

Fantastic!

Wow I loved this. I read Heart Failure before this where Diana and Emily were minor characters so I loved getting their full story here in Irregular Heartbeat. I should have read Irregular Heartbeat first but they are both amazing either way. This was a perfect medical romance. Chris Zett is such a great author and Abby Craden is the greatest narrator of all time in my opinion.

Heart wrenching read!!

The connection was so irresistible. Love this read and the narration 🥰. Ready to listen to another one.
