Acute Reactions (Practice Perfect, #1)

Ruby Lang

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

The man with allergies never gets the girl, at least according to the movies—and Portland restaurateur Ian Zamora wants to be the guy who gets the girl. So to rid himself of the sensitivities brought on by his sometimes-girlfriend’s cat, he makes an appointment with allergist Petra Lale. But he suddenly finds himself acutely attracted to the very woman who is supposed to be helping him take care of his problem. Petra’s intrigued by Ian’s quiet strength and sexy body, but her solo practice is new and struggling. She can’t afford to compromise her ethics—or risk her medical license—by dating a patient. Falling in love certainly wasn’t this doctor’s order. She tries to stay away from Ian, but fate, and her weak willpower, keep bringing them back together. Do two career-driven people with inexperienced hearts stand a chance of finding the right prescription for love?

    (4/2019) This was almost a DNF at Chapter 25, I may just skip to the end. Petra and Ian are well written and funny, i love Petra’s inner Hippocrates. But the growth they’re going through *stresses me out*. They just had the climactic “big problem” that precedes the HEA and my heart is pounding and I’m not having fun. Petra has anxiety. She has anxiety and that fact is u diagnosed and unexamined. I would hope figuring that out is part of her HEA? But in the meantime following her story is giving me anxiety. I just want to hit her with a sedative dart and smack her around. There’s a sweet spot on the anxiety curve where you’re anxious enough to achieve things but no so anxious that you turn your whole life into a dumpster fire. I don’t think I can wait for Petra to slide back down from dumpster fire.

    Ok, ok, after writing my little rant and skipping ahead a bit, I finished Ian’s and Petra’s story. Petra magically stops being anxious (boo) but everything else was fun.
