A breezy and enjoyable read.
This the 2nd book in the Doctor series. We meet the first of the Cove brothers in Dr Off Limits. Dr Perfect features the Zach Cove. From the first book we know that the Cove family are well known in the medical community, and they all love working in the medical field. Except Zach doesn’t anymore.
Ellie is his new assistant that helps him rediscover what he is passionate about, all while stuck on a remote Scottish island in a one bed cottage! Ellie is recently ending a relationship where she has manipulated over several years. In this book we see Ellie learn from her past experiences and grow into the woman she wants to become.
The one thing I love about the authors books is that they are about life happening, without drama. It makes them more relatable.

Ellie is just coming out of a verbally abusive relationship and is trying to get her life back on track. She loves to cook and bake and her dream is to go to Cordon Bleu and become a chef. She takes a job as a secretary for Dr. Zach Cove as nothing else is available. Thinking this job is going to be something to keep her busy, it’s the exact opposite. Dr. Cove is doing what he thinks he should be doing by opening a private practice, when in reality he hates being a doctor.
While Ellie notices how gorgeous her new boss is she also finds him kind of strange because he won’t do what he needs to do to get patients and he keeps himself locked in his office doing who knows what.
In a twist they find themselves on a small Scottish island in a small cabin during a snowstorm. It’s during this that Zach can’t deny his feeling for Ellie anymore. Ellie clearly has baggage from her ex that she has to work through and it’s because Zach is so understanding and caring that she is finally able to. This book was sexy and sweet and a little sad because Ellie’s ex was such a jerk. I tore through the book though, it was hard to put down.

Dr. Perfect is book 2 of The Doctors series by author Louise Bay. It is a standalone, rom-com, told from both POV with a HEA.
Tropes:
✔️ one bed
✔️ forced proximity
✔️ grumpy-sunshine
If you're looking for a steamy and cute snowed in romance, then "Dr. Perfect" is the book for you! The novel centers around Ellie, who is fresh out of a ten-year hurtful relationship and trying to get her life back together starting with her job as an assistant to Dr. Zach. However, when a snowstorm hits and they are forced to share a tiny cottage with only one bed, things start to heat up in more ways than one.
The chemistry between the two main characters is undeniable, and the author does a fantastic job of building up the tension between them. Ellie is relatable and easy to root for, while Dr. Perfect is aloof and arrogant at first, but gradually warms up to her. The banter between them is witty and clever, and readers will find themselves laughing out loud at their interactions.
The setting of a snowy Scottish island adds to the cozy and intimate atmosphere of the book, making it the perfect read for a cold winter's night. The author's descriptions of the landscape and the cottage make you feel like you're right there with the characters.
Overall, "Dr. Perfect" is a delightful romantic comedy that will have you swooning and laughing in equal measure. The characters are charming, the setting is cozy, and the romance is steamy.

Dr. Perfect, aka Zach, is the next of the Cove brothers. His family has nicknamed him Dr. Perfect…even though he feels the opposite of perfect. He’s moving into private practice a few days a week, and Ellie is the temp worker sent to be his new receptionist.
The thing about Zach…is that he hates being a doctor. He wants to write cozy mysteries, but hasn’t told anyone, least of all his receptionist. Things happen and long story short, he’s decamped to a distant Scottish cottage, and Ellie gets stuck there with him during a storm.
I had a hard time believing in their initial relationship. Zach barely showed any interest or care towards Ellie the entire time he’d known her. And despite her physical attraction to Zach, she seemed to dislike his personality. But you all know what happens with FORCED PROXIMITY!
Once their relationship begins, I loved getting to know them both better. We dive into Ellie’s insecurity after an emotional abusive relationship, and Zach’s fear of letting his family down. There is a third act break-up, but I feel like it was integral to their relationship growth and progression. Overall, Dr. Perfect was a nice addition to the series, and I’m definitely looking forward to more.

Diese Hörbücher sind einfach so schnell zu hören. Sie sind kurz, nicht zu deep oder ernst und machen einfach Spaß. Es kommen immer wieder altbekannte Charaktere vor, auch aus anderen Reihen von ihr. Sie kann einfach gute Freundschaftsdynamiken schreiben und irgendwie sind alle ihre Charaktere sympathisch. Ich hab btw noch nie eins der Bücher gelesen sondern immer die deutschen Hörbücher gehört. Es wäre eigentlich auch mal spannend die Geschichten im Original zu lesen.
In diesem Buch geht es um Zack und Ally (keinen Schimmer ob die so geschrieben werden, hab’s ja nur gehört und bin zu faul um nachzuschauen). Zack ist, wie fast alle in seiner Familie, Arzt (Gastroenterologe) aber er hasst es und will lieber Schriftsteller sein. Er plant trotzdem am Anfang des Buches, seine eigene Praxis zu eröffnen und stellt dafür Ally als seine Praxishilfe ein. Ally hat sich gerade von ihrem Ex Shane getrennt der irgendeinen Rennsport (nicht F1) beruflich macht und sie war quasi seine Managerin. Er hat sie betrogen und jetzt sucht sie einen neuen Job ohne richtige Referenzen oder eine Ausbildung. Eigentlich will sie an dir Kochschule in London, kann es sich aber nicht leisten. Deswegen fängt sie bei Zack an. Naja er kommt wieder ins Schreiben, das mit der Praxis geht nicht voran und Ally fängt an, sich zu wundern. Dann werden sie irgendwann eingeschneit und es passiert was passieren muss. Es war wirklich ganz cute, vor allen die Szenen, wo sie zusammen auf einer Insel in Schottland eingeschneit sind. Auch die Familie von Zack ist immer wieder fun. Es war für mich trotzdem etwas schwächer als der erste Teil. Und obviously werde ich jetzt direkt den nächsten Band hören, weil die sich so gut Bingen lassen.
Zach and Ellie
Zach, aLocal Dr. has lost his passion for his profession, although he never really had it. He figures he will open his own practice to lessen the hospital demand, but really he doesn’t want to be a doctor at all. He wants to write.
Ellie needs a job fast, as she has goals to go back to school for cooking. She takes on an assistant job for a doctor but soon realizes something is off, he has no patients.
They soon find themselves locked away in a snow storm and their chemistry gets the best of them. The more time they spend together the less time they want to spend apart.
This honestly wasn’t my favorite. It started out ok but never really went anywhere. The main plot was really just Will they won’t they and it got to be a bit repetitive.

Another sweet, quick romance. Both main characters are likable, if not completely fleshed out. That’s not a criticism, I felt we knew enough about each character without getting too bogged down in minute details.

What a sweet story of love and finding where you belong!
Zach, or Dr. Perfect, comes from a family of Dr's. I love that we get to see behind his cool and somewhat detached exterior. He falls fast for Ellie. She just got out of a bad relationship and is more skittish with love. I love how smart and talented she is! These two get snowed in a small cabin together and the sparks fly! Ellie absolutely loves to cook and make others happy. Zach makes her feel beautiful and appreciated in ways she's never had. I love the secret project that Zach is working on. It changes his life!
Ellie and Zach are so sweet and fit together so perfectly! They figure out their path in both their personal lives and their lives together.
