The Best Medicine by Elizabeth Hayley Review

4.5 Smooches

Synopsis

Lauren Hastings is finally ready to enter the real world. At twenty-six, she’s about to get her master’s in psychology, and she’s well on her way to beginning the career of her dreams—until she suffers public humiliation and has to endure something she thought she’d never have to deal with again: a part-time job.

A gig at Trinity Hospital isn’t exactly Lauren’s definition of a good time, but Dr. Scott Jacobs quickly changes her mind. He’s straight-up gorgeous, and he always gets what he wants. And that includes Lauren. It’s an ideal arrangement for both of them. No strings. Just fun—at least at first.

But feelings quickly begin to run deeper than either Lauren or Scott is willing to admit, causing issues neither of them want to confront. After all, who wants to risk the perfect relationship on something as terrifying, as messy, and as unpredictable as love?

Review

Elizabeth Hayley is a duo that I can count on to make me laugh and anxious all at the same time but no matter what happens I am always left with a smile on my face and desperate for more from them. A fan of their work since they first started publishing I was extremely excited to see what they would produce with their first foray into traditional publishing, I was not disappointed!

Graduate student Lauren has a knack for trouble and her most recent problem landed her briefly in jail and needing a job to pay for damage to a bar. Her mom arranges her to have a job at the doctor office where she works but never did she expect the man in charge, Dr. Scott, to be a sexy and intimating man who gets her blood boiling. Only 29 years old Scott is much younger than she expected a man running his own practice to be and while he can infuriate her like no other she also desperately wants to see what he looks like naked.

‘His desire for her made him feel vulnerable and self-conscious. And he fucking hated it.’

Lauren and Scott hooked me with their banter and quick wit and excited me with the fact that they could sets the sheets afire. The first book in the series I am instantly hooked and eager to read more of these interconnected standalones!
