Cyrus Mills has given up everything to save his father’s
veterinary practice, Bedside Manor, after his father dies. But, Health Paws and
its owner Guy Dorkin want to put Bedside Manor out of business. Cyrus and his
co-worker Dr. Lewis are willing to fight to the end to keep Bedside Manor
going.
Dr. Lewis refers a client, Garvey Ranch, to Cyrus. Cyrus
examines the sickly cow and notices the owner’s son is also ill. If what he
thinks is a sure thing, the Garvey Ranch will have to destroy all the animals.
Cyrus also has his eye on Amy. But she hasn’t paid any
attention to him since their first date. Meanwhile, a client’s son and his friend set
Cyrus up on a blind date. They create a false identity on an online dating
service without him knowing. Cyrus is introduced to the blind date, Dr. Mills,
from his nemesis pet clinic. Now, Cyrus has a problem in his love life.
Through a little snooping, Dr. Lewis finds incriminating
evidence against Guy Dorkin. Maybe, this is the boost that he and Cyrus need to
keep Bedside Manor from losing any customers.
Cyrus has so many puzzles that need the missing pieces to
complete.
Nick Trout’s novel with a veterinarian theme is quite
different for me. Even though, I do not normally read about veterinarians, animals and their
ailments, this was a pretty good book. The main characters Cyrus, Amy and Dr. Mills are likeable. But, the
storyline with Cyrus and Amy as love
interests, I could not feel the magic. Overall, this novel is a good easy read.
I recommend this book to lovers of pets and quirky love stories.
I received this book free from Hyperion/Hachette Publishing for
an unbiased review.
