Bedside Manners

Brook Ogden has never encountered a broken heart she couldn't patch together. Her counseling practice as the Breakup Doctoron call to help you shape up after a breakupis 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 Chip Santana, a former 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. Except 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 makeand the Breakup Doctor has to decide what kind of casualties she's willing to accept.
