Publisher's Synopsis
AN ENDEARING AND HEARTWARMING READ... "As heartwarming as they are humorous-Fox's books offer more than the usual chick lit fare, with a lot of heart and a smart, relatable heroine in Breakup Doctor Brook Ogden." - Sarah Bird, Author of The Boyfriend School and The Gap Year "Phoebe Fox has given us characters that are lovably fallible, funny, and frazzled, and has proven that when it comes to love and relationships of any kind, even the sanest of us get a little crazy." - Elisa Lorello, Bestselling Author of Faking It and Why I Love Singlehood "A fantastic addition to The Breakup Doctor series-I highly recommend this novel!" - Jill Knapp, Author of What Happens to Men When They Move to Manhattan? and We've Always Got New York "Love this humorous chick lit that highlights how our own adversities and challenges can create opportunities and passion for helping others-I so related to the Breakup Doctor!" - Kimberly Seltzer, Dating & Makeover Expert and Recovering Therapist, Elite Image Makeovers "An endearing and heartwarming read...Considering the amount of growth Brook's character went through, I really can't wait to read the next book in the The Breakup Doctor Series. My Bottomline: Bedside Manners reminds us that our relationship with ourselves is just as important as our relationships with others." - Fiction Function "I loved this book...A lighthearted, easy, entertaining read that definitely gives you your money's worth. I highly recommend it!" - BookLikes 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.
