Bedside Manners by Phoebe Fox Book Review

We have all been there. Broken relationships that try to break us. Frustration, self doubt, anger, and so many more emotions that we have to deal with. Yuck! At least we can bury our nose in a book and relax! Plus, if the book is about a Breakup Doctor, hey, we might even be able to get some self-help along the way. LOL I got to check out this new release and remind myself why I am glad I’m not single any more… ha!

Bedside Manners by Phoebe Fox
Series: The Breakup Doctor Series
Paperback and Ebook
Publisher: Henery Press (March 24, 2015)

Brook Ogden has never encountered a broken heart she couldn’t patch together…

Her counseling practice as the Breakup Doctor—on call to help you shape up after a breakup—is so busy she’s expanded to offer group sessions. (Turns out there are far more than fifty ways to leave your lover.) 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. She’s 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.

My Thoughts: This is the second book about the Breakup Doctor, aka, Brook, the first one being named The Breakup Doctor which came out last year. As with most series, sometimes you miss a few things about what happened in previous novels and while I did not read the first book, I did not feel I missed anything pertinent to this storyline.

This book packs in a lot of good things – humor, funny scenes, some crazy patients, the hard truth, and an all over good read. I enjoyed the writing style of the author. This book is easy to read and very entertaining. The main character is very human and works on trying to figure out her life while helping others too. The ending, well, I was not amused. I really did not think it would end like that. Ugh! But then again, it means a sequel must be in the works!

For an entertaining read, this series is fun, a bit crazy, and perfect for a lazy afternoon. Bedside Manners is one to check out and enjoy!
