Synopsis

Brook Ogden's counseling practice as the Breakup Doctor is so busy that she's expanded to offer group sessions. Her radio show and advice column have made her a local celebrity, and even her personal life, after some gruesome breakups of her own, is in recovery: Ben Garrett started out as a revenge date against an ex, but has turned into so much more.

But when sizzling-hot Chip Santana, an old client she once shared a rather unprofessional midnight roll in the sand with, comes back into her life asking for her help, Brook can't say no. Yet while she's busy stitching up his relationship troubles, Chip reveals much more than a therapeutic interest in her.

In the standoff between her heart and her hormones, Brook's cool, collected Wise Therapist persona begins to crack like thrown wedding china. She's yelling at recalcitrant cheating husbands, offering crazy advice to radio callers, and even hugging her clients. When the situation goes critical, Brook's forced into a decision she isn't ready to make, and the Breakup Doctor has to decide what kind of casualties she's willing to accept.

Contains mature themes.

Goodreads review by Cuppa

I did not read The Break Up Doctor, the book that precedes Bedside Manners but I have really enjoyed all the Henery Press books I've read, so when I saw this on Net Galley I decided to give it a try. Henery Press mostly does mysteries but Bedside Manners is a chick lit novel. I tend to either really......more

I loved this book just like I loved the first book in the Breakup Doctor series. This book is a continuation of Brook Ogden's life and growing her new Breakup Doctor practice.
