Wake for Me — Isobel Irons

Once upon a dream... 
 
When winery princess Viola Bellerose has a fight with her "up and coming" Irish rock star boyfriend, she blows off steam in true diva fashion--by making out with a hot stranger in a bar and promptly crashing her Mercedes into the East River. Whoops. 
 
Now Viola spends her days trapped inside the prison of her own body. When she isn't eavesdropping on the private conversations of her hospital caretakers, Viola is lost in a world of vivid and terrifying dreams, in which a tall and brooding doctor appears in a sizzling romantic role. 
 
First year intern Sam Philips is barely surviving his complicated life, juggling family drama, the pressure of looming exams, and competition with his fellow interns. His daily solace is the time he spends with his favorite patient, the young girl he's nicknamed Sleeping Beauty. Convinced that Viola will eventually pull through and wake up, Sam spends hours at her bedside, telling her everything from the minute details of his day to some of his deepest secrets. 
 
But what Sam doesn't know is that his Sleeping Beauty is aware. That he's the only thing still tethering Viola to reality. That she's falling for him. 
 
And what Viola can't tell Sam, is that someone is trying to make sure she never wakes up. 
 
WAKE FOR ME is a standalone novel of contemporary romantic suspense, and also the first book in the Life or Death Series by Isobel Irons. 
 
 Praise for WAKE FOR ME: 
 
"A fearless newcomer to the world of self-publishing, Isobel Irons kicks in the door of the romantic suspense genre and knocks it on its ass. She's irreverent, funny and a little bit dark. ...Basically, she's my kind of writer. WAKE FOR ME is white-knuckle, life-or-death medical suspense--wearing a lacy Freudian Slip. It's funny and intelligent, yet it doesn't take itself too seriously. Viola Bellerose is the kind of heroine you'd like to murder...but only so you can take her place and make out with the leading man--Dr. Sam Philips, who is like McDreamy AND McSteamy, rolled together into one likeable, abdominally-gifted package." - Elle Lothlorien, bestselling author of The Frog Prince, Sleeping Beauty and Gilding the Lily Pad
