2.5 rounded up
This book is super simplistic, i'd even dare say puerile but in a funny way that's exactly what makes it it entertaining. Yes it's super predictable and yes nothing much happens till the end but it's nice, fast read.

3.5 stars
None of the characters were particularly likeable, except maybe Rory, but I love that Fern wasn't some naive, weak wife. She had plans of her own! I also loved the ending!
The title is just slightly misleading, as I don't think the fact that Drew was a doctor had THAT much to do with the story, really, but it didn't take anything away from the story either. (He probably could have had almost any job and the story wouldn't have changed much.)
Overall, another great novel by Daniel Hurst!

Thank you to Daniel Hurst, Bookouture, and Netgalley for this advanced copy. All opinions are my own.
What to say? Hmmm. Daniel Hurst once again delivers a truly shocking and fantastic story. I didn't even read the description, so I went in blindly but it's a Daniel Hurst book, so there's that. If you like rollercoasters, strap yourself in, cause you're in for a wild ride full of twists and turns, lies and deceit. I feel this is one of his best books, and that's saying alot because he has written some amazing stories!
Synopsis:
Fern and Drew have been married for quite some time. She's living the life of a doctor's wife, while he's living a lie.
What's the lie? Well you'll find that out when you read the book. Giving away that will take away from the story.
Anyway, Drew tells Fern he needs to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and wants to start fresh. So after some time he talks Fern into moving from the city to a small town about 200 miles away, where he will be the village doctor, which will help him with the slow down, he's looking for.
Little does Fern know the real reason for the move, or does she? If Drew can have a secret why can't Fern?
Lots of surprises are heading your way in this book. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did

Very easy book to read, although it’s pretty clear from the start what would happen. I was expecting the ‘secrets’ Fern knew about Drew to be something bigger. From the write up, I guess I was expecting more than just a cheating husband/scorned wife story. The epilogue was the most interesting part, but it was still an enjoyable, easy read nonetheless so I will be reading the rest of this series.
