Hearts are set to race on the night shift before Christmas…
Violet Winters is starting her first week of nights and she is petrified. She’s a straight-A student, but practising medicine on real people is another matter entirely. Seems like being a straight-talker can get you in hot water when it comes to patient care… With no one special to spend Christmas with, she signs herself up for the holiday night shift. How much damage could she possibly do?
Dr Gus Jovic, on the other hand, is universally popular, famously unflappable in a crisis and appears to charm patients with ease. But Violet can't help but wonder … how come Mr Perfect is avoiding a Christmas at home too?

'A delicious festive treat with a romance that truly sparkled. I defy anyone with a heartbeat not to fall in love with Violet and Gus. This is, without a doubt, Peach's best book to date' Jenni Keer
'The Night Shift could almost be Beth O’Leary and Ali Hazelwood’s love child, except it’s pure Nancy Peach pedigree. Witty, clever and heartfelt, her writing absolutely drew me in and this is one of my favourite reads this year.' Julie Caplin
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'Remember Dr Dreamy? Well, Hello Dr Gus Jovic. If you were ever a fan of Grey’s Anatomy or ER and the Britishness of Green Wing, then this is a must. Peach is sharp in her observations, smart in her insights, and this new story is just what the doctor ordered'
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'If Grey’s Anatomy, The Pitt, ER, and Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez had a baby, it would be The Night Shift. And honestly? That baby would be charming, chaotic, heartwarming, and a little bit neurospicy (in the best way).If you love smart, quirky rom coms with big heart and even bigger personalities, this is...
