Dr Stanton Kindle Edition

The perfect pair!The perfect spin-off to Stanton series. This highly anticipated book did NOT disappoint! Like all of Swan's books, you'll get a rainbow of emotions with this read. Storytelling skills are always on point and writing is very well done, even for the toughest critics.I enjoy a mouth dropping bombshell and you'll get several with this book. I loved it! From the very first chapter I was hooked. Whenever I find a book that is great from the first chapter I know it's gonna be a good one. The 2 main characters of this book are 2 peas in a pod, they push each other's buttons like crazy. The chemistry is hot, the sex even HOTTER!! He is a typical guy at times and she is a strong willed superwoman. You'll be dragged through the mud with this one. I wanted and did curse at my kindle like a sailor. 24 hours after finishing this book I still have my emotions running high. Swan's books are NOT forgettable they are addictive! Once you start reading her books you'll become a junkie just like me! I received an ARC of this book because when given the chance I jumped on it!Now, for some things I loved and some things I didn't care for without spoilers!Loved:The pace of the book. Never a dull moment!The chemistry. You could feel how intense their interaction is. If you like true, real deal match making, you'll love this story. They are truly perfect for each other. Swan wrote them so they were equals. Even though at times it seemed as one had more power over the other, it's just not true in this book. I found that they owed each other rather than one having more power. This book isn't about dominating because they are both strong characters. Which I also love. I hate push over characters.Surprises. I love twists, turns and even cliffhangers. Don't worry this book doesn't have a cliffhanger. But it does have great surprises and moments that are so angsty you'll be like a crazy person reading under the covers while biting your nails waiting to see what happens. You'll want to high five someone when things happen so make sure you read this book with a friend. You'll want to talk about every chapter in detail. This doctor is HOT!This book didn't effect the main series or more books to follow. So you really could read this one and then hop back to the Stanton series. But I highly recommend you read the first books first because it will make you fall in love with Cameron more so. You'll see his character develop more maturely if you read the others first. Plus those are amazing!Con (for me):This book takes place between 2 doctors, but we didn't get much of their occupation. I was a little disappointed in this. Ashely, the main character and a doctor in training was never called a doctor. She is a strong woman and I would have liked her smarts to come out more at work and not just between her and Cameron.Somewhere in the middle:Now, if the author does a good job, you feel everything. The good, the bad and the ugly. The author knows them inside out. So being a reader, you create this fantasy of how you perceive a character and it's not exactly as the author does. Swan has written things in previous books that gutted me but I understand why she did it. Still amazing books by the way. In this particular book, somewhere around the midpoint, I started hating a character I never thought I could. I was so angry at one point I thought, that's it, the story will never be the same now. It will never be what I wanted it to be because this thing happened. I actually stayed mad almost till the end of the book. But THEN, the brilliance that is TL Swan happens and she somehow weaves her craft and fixes it. It's not perfect but it became very real. Both parties in the book had to admit defeat in order to try and fix it. Ugh, just thinking about it makes me crazy lol!This was a grand-slam home run ending! If she had changed one sentence, one sequence of events it would not have ended as it did. Very well thought out ending. I loved this book as well as its characters.

This book took me on an emotional roller coaster. It was hot, it was good. It was well-written as far as flow and plot.However… I’m gunna put spoilers down below, so brace yourself and don’t look if you don’t want to know! And boy is this LONG. And RANTY. I feel emotionally raw, unsatisfied, and a very high level of Oh Honey.. NO. By the last page. A BAD book hangover.TLDR; minimum no spoiler: MC is mean and selfish. There should be groveling IMO and there was not. Bulldozer/flirt/seduces the FMC to forgive him. Even she admits she doesn’t ever forgive him just… leaves it alone. And the relationship/misunderstanding/TRUST issues continue but they just kind of ignore the elephants and live… Happily Ever In Toxic Ignorance? RIP-------SPOILER:The FMC works at a VERY high end club that has sex work in the building, but it is NOT a brothel. When the MC finds out she works there he flips and orders her to stop OR ELSE. They also work together at the hospital by day. And.. after their Vegas interlude, she was pregnant with his child.Now this is where I just wanna crack something in half.HIS childish actions at the casino (counting cards when he knows and acknowledges he could get banned and acts a fool) get him thrown out and he loses his phone. And her number. So if he hadn’t been an enormous idiot he wouldn’t have lost track of her. And she had no way to contact him.So while I also don’t condone that she dates him and hides his child from him?When he does find out, he loses his ever loving MIND. She goes back to working at the club at night to take care of their son. He threatens her again with how their son will feel if he finds out later in life his mom was a prostitute. EVEN IF she doesn’t work in that area.She goes out for drinks with a few of the girls from the club after he’s been an absolute A-HOLE to her about having his kid and hiding it from her. She needs a break.Someone at the bar roofies her and she’s brought to the hospital. They do drug tests. She tells him the truth- she was drugged. He doesn’t believe her.Files court orders and security with his massive bags of money and gets the court to remove her son from her until she “gets her head on straight”. She warns him she’ll never forgive him for that. So does everyone around him.Changes his mind the day he comes to take their son and he hears her SOUL SHATTERING SCREAM CRIES and sees her in the FETAL POSITION on her couch. They settle into some other sort of arrangement.They BS around each other for months while he grows close with his son and she is as friendly as she needs to be and shuts down any attempts by him to talk about anything but their child. GOOD FOR HER.Of course after being confronted with the possibility of her dating or marrying someone else he’s like NO I LIKE HER. I want to eff other women even if I don’t care for them.. but NO WAY she can do the same.He ends up flirting his way back in her life with THE CRAPPIEST excuses about “putting his son first” and keeping her from being a prostitute and using drugs and just.. wow. WOW.They screw around and fall “back” in love and she thinks about how she doesn’t really forgive him but just decides to move on. Okay.They fly to her ex’s mother’s home because she’s dying and wants to see her and the grandson she had emotionally adopted. FMC goes to cook supper for her one last time and when she takes headache meds she passes out on the lady’s couch all night.She wakes up in a panic, sees her phone was on silent and she missed a million calls and the MC won’t answer his phone. She rushes back to the hotel and there’s a note saying they left her and she should just stay behind.He assumes she slept with her ex and just ditched him and their son.IMO a real man would have gone TO THE PLACE to see if she was okay not just immediately abandon her as a slut and steal their child away.BUT WAIT he has a flash of concience last second and goes back for her. Doesn’t really believe she didn’t cheat on him but just moves on.They live happily ever after.There was no groveling. No therapy. No talking about important stuff. This hot rich dude just mowed her over. Didn’t give a f she was drugged or was doing what she had to do to take care of his child- that he would have known about if he wasn’t a POS and lost his phone because he was acting like a DOOSH.There is no way even in fantasy land this is a healthy relationship or that marriage will ever work out.I was sobbing WITH the FMC when the man she loved called her a drug addicted whor3 and TOOK HER SON AWAY.My crying and rage carried me through the end of the book where the most sour and angry taste is left in my mouth. That child is going to grow up in the worst home. But at least he’ll be rich. Cameron Stanton is one of the absolute worst MCs I’ve ever read.

Each book brings you dapper into the world I felt so strongly about the characters in this book. I’ve been a fan of cams witty honesty . The freaking plot twist and full circle of this couple god . I was bawling my eyes out. Next chapter I’m confused at my emotions. Next chapter I’m laughing like I’ve lost all sanity. The ending was the best ending yet !

The characters are real enough to think they are true.The struggles and events have been repeated in TL Sean's other series but it such an easy read it is fun.

Started reading it and didn't put it down until it was done. Well written, entertaining, and a 5 out of 5 stars.
