Scrubs - Brooke Harris
Publication date: Dec. 4th 2015
Series: Part 1
Genre: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance
I like fast cars, beautiful women and great sex.
I hate drugs. I can’t stand the idiots who take them and I loathe the bastards who supply them. Drugs cost me my whole world.
I wear many faces; right now I’m Doctor Lucas Callaghan and I’ll be him until I get my revenge.
My real name will be the last words to ever pass their lips.
I hate my name, Aoife Brennan, as soon as people hear it they treat me differently because of my father.
Medical school isn’t my dream, it’s his. But, it’s the least I owe him after everything I’ve done. I’m trying to be a good girl, but even good girls make mistakes.
He’s lying about who he is, she’s kidding herself about who she can be. They’re polar opposites with one very big secret in common.
I can honestly say Scrubs is off to a good start,I’m mildly entertained and will continue to read the series. While cliffhangers normally put me in that gimme gimme mold this one not so much maybe because I was hoping for a jaw dropping and clutch my pearls moments. Again I was very much entertained while reading this rather quick series. It did have one of my favorite forbidden pleasures : teacher -student relationship, granted its off to a rocky start, but whatever.
Sean/Lucas loses his fiancee while he was in med school, of course he blames himself and his life is thrown off course. His new profession is very much of course from being a doctor and now he’s undercover at his old school, but I don’t know why. He’s also looking into the man that basically runs the town and again I don’t know why. These are a few things I have to know and Brooke’s writing was intriguing enough to keep me hooked for the answers. While on this assignment a young woman catches his attention is a way he never expected.
It doesn’t take long for him to learn while posing as a professor she a student. Aoife, sadly is wasting her time trying to become a doctor when her heart is full of art. Struggling with trying to please her father, who happens to be a very prominent doctor, she finds herself having to chose between loyalty and love. Thankfully Aoife doesn’t have one of those entitled attitudes which makes her so enjoyable. She actually wants to help people and she’s seems quite geniue in her approach.
Scrubs is told with a dual POV. Brooke’s writing is fast pace intriguing, but at the same time you feel like you weren’t given enough to leave you with a hanger. I so happen to crave that feeling. Fingers crossed when the second installment is released not only will some questions be answered, but I’m left with a hangover. I’m still not sure how I feel about the ending while it was a cliffhanger it felt more so like the end of a scene. Yes I have a ton why and who questions that I would love to know. Thank you Brooke for introducing me to your work and currently I’m patiently waiting for this story to unravel and the pieces to fall in order.
