Doctor D’s Orderly Affair (Doctors of Eastport General) by C.A. King – Review by Cami Hammond

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was my first time reading a book from this author and it was a quick spicy read! Desmond and Emily both work at the hospital. Desmond is a doctor with a naughty reputation and Emily is an orderly that seems to play it safe. They work on different floors so they have never met until they both decide to go to the same bar on the same night. They don’t have the night of fun they want so they try again the next night with success! Something happens that changes things. I can’t give it all away but I will say I did enjoy this read. I know it is a Novella, but I wish it were longer and not so rushed at the end. I wanted/needed more. I can’t wait to read her next book. Maybe we will get an update on these two!

Emily is a new orderly at Eastport General Hospital and is hearing some gossip about Doctor Desmond, aka Doctor D. Since Emily has never met Doctor D, she imagines he is that almost too perfect kind of Doctor who seems to have everything and really doesn’t believe he really exists. In all honesty, Doctor Desmond does exist and sure sounds like everyone’s dream. What the gossips don’t talk about is how much Doctor D cares for his patients and how hard he works to help the children under his care.
Overall I really enjoyed the book. It’s a short novella type story for Doctors of Eastport General. I am looking forward to checking out some of the stories written by other authors for this series.

A cute, quick, fun read! Right out the gate, the book starts with chaos, which made it intriguing. Initially it is a little confusing to line it all up, but it makes sense fairly quickly into the story. Dr. Desmond is a pediatrician who is caught up in the middle of an impossible situation. He also has a bit of a reputation. Emily is an orderly with her life all planned out and no time for BS. I loved the two MCs, both separately and seeing how their relationship evolved. The story made me laugh a few times, got a little steamy in others, and tugged on your heart strings a bit along the way. I would have liked to see a little more on the characters. Because of its size and how quickly it flies past, it reads more like a novella. I will definitely be picking up some others in this series when I am in the mood for a quick, cute romance!

This was a great quick romantic read! You really get to know Emily and Des. I like how you get to read from both perspectives with alternating chapters. I always enjoy this author and her writing style is really fun and light. This story proves you can’t and shouldn’t judge someone based on what you hear. From first class embarrassment to some tear jerker parts this story is definitely worth the read!

Once again my people of Bunya revive me with open arms and I’m more than thrilled to be back 🥰

I just feel it in my bones that Bunya is going work it’s “love magic “ again for another Currthers sibling ❣️😉

Doctor Franceen Lewis comes to Waratah hospital to heal and service the community but in doing so they are actually the ones healing her 🥰 and while Scott has his own cut out for him i matters of the heart , he’s so gentle , loving and patient with his Dr Lewis I can’t help but fall harder for than she does 😂

These people of Bunya and Waratah really have a big place in my heart ❤️

Dr. D’s reputation precedes him. He’s hot, sexy, and only available for one night. He doesn’t do relationships and everybody knows it. Emily, on orderly, is oblivious to the legend of Dr. D because she’s too busy chasing her dreams and working. The legendary Dr. D and Emily have a chance encounter that does not go as planned. Did she ruin her one night with Dr. D? Rules are rules!
Doctor D’s Orderly Affair is a fun and fast-paced quick read. The characters are relatable and easy to like.

Not quite what I was expecting, but a good book nonetheless. The book was slow to draw me in, but I was still able to finish it in one day and enjoyed the writers style of writing. I definitely plan to read the other books of the series soon.

The characters of Desmond and Emily are both relatable, making it feel like you understand what they are going through as the book switches back and forth from their perspectives. The chemistry between them is apparent from the first time they meet in the hallway of the hospital they work at together, and by the end of the story you are rooting for them to have a happy ending.

Doctor D’s Orderly Affair is part of a series of Doctor Affairs in the General Hospital. This gave me a Grey’s Anatomy McSteamy feel to it. It’s a quick and spicy read if you love steamy books that are novella type. When Doctor D meets his romantic interest Nurse Emily it is off to the steamy races. Without giving away too many spoilers just know what happens next is nothing short of a steamy romantic slow burn spicy read. I look forward to reading more books in this series.

This book was a hard one for me to rate. I was ridiculously torn between numbers here. Ultimately I want to do this author justice because I did enjoy the book. I think this would be considered more of a short story or novella due to it’s size but could easily be added to too be turned into a longer novel. I did miss learning the characters back stories and learning about how they got to this point in their lives. In the beginning we just start right in the middle of a busy hospital scene which I found to be kind of abrupt, but as the story progresses we do learn a little about the characters. Once you get through the first chapter or so the story smooths out and becomes a really entertaining story about Doctor Desmond and an orderly named Emily. Dr Desmond is definitely more than the rumors lead us and Emily to believe. He does care about his job, and there are reasons behind him becoming a pediatrician. The chemistry between the two was immediate and on fire and I enjoyed seeing the relationship develop between them. I do wish more would have been added to the end mostly just to answer some questions I had but I was happy with how it ended. Overall I enjoyed it. It was a quick, fast paced, but entertaining, and enjoyable read. I would be interested in reading more from this series and more from the author as well.

This book was very fast paced. There were multiple parts that made me LOL which i loved. Parts that made me sad for these characters . There were parts that made snort because it was a bit unrealistic. There was one major time/location jump with no context between chapters so that was a bit confusing. So I guess I can say this was a roller coaster of story. Overall a cute short story! Would read more!

If looking for a quick read, this story will definitely fit the bill. The rumor of the legendary Dr. D circulated around Eastport Hospital. Emily had never seen or heard of the doctor until the day he was called into the Emergency department to help treat children from a school bus accident. The nurses were gossiping about him and when the orderly stated she had never heard of him, they automatically targeted her. Upon their advice, Emily decided she would go out one evening. Meanwhile, Dr. Desmond Danielson was attempting to convince his sister that her son needed surgery. While the surgery was risky, Mikey would die without it. His sister refused unless an emergency required the procedure. His co-worker advised him to take a night off for himself. As fate would have it, an extremely drunk Emily and Danielson ended up meeting one another. Emily accepted a ride from Dr. Danielson, and despite nothing beyond her throwing up on him, the rumor mill at the hospital immediately thought otherwise.

Steamy, hot, fun!! A good story overall. More of a novella than a novel and I was able to read this one in about three to four hours. However it was three to four hours of enjoyment!!! Desmond and Emily are the perfect couple who are the absolute definition of opposites attract!!
This author gives a great read with in depth characters and a plot line that is both character and story driven. The characters become a central part of the plot and bring this story to life!! My only complaint is the end didn’t jive with the story line and a lot was left unfinished… maybe there will be another story to complete this but over all I say it’s a great, comfortable read.

Main points: Enjoyable characters. Good story line. A little bit of steam.

This book is a quick read. I enjoyed that there was a good amount of story line balanced with the romance. One thing I will say is that if you are a reader who doesn’t want the pandemic mentioned in a book you are using to escape, this one might not be the book for you. It doesn’t overpower the story, but it is mentioned.
For some reason, I had a difficult time with the feel of the first chapter and struggled to get into the story, but it smoothed out in chapter two. I can’t pinpoint what exactly the challenge was for me, but I pushed through it, and it was worth it.

Dr. D is a pediatrician at a hospital where is has a bit of a reputation. He’s is known for being a fantastic lover but never going past a one night stand. Emily doesn’t think this man exist but after a VERY drunken night she is corrected. Dr. D and Emily have great chemistry and even though this was a novella there was just enough plot to compliment their relationship. This was a super fun and quick read, you can never go wrong with a steamy doctor!

Great novella. Dr D is a walking dream every woman wants him, but he only ever has them for 1 night and his main rule is no work colleagues until Emily the new orderly comes along can she stay for more than one night??? He hates the rumors about him in the hospital and keeps himself to himself. This book is hot you will not be disappointed

Doctor D’s Orderly Affair is a short (very quick read) about a doctor with a bad boy, one-night stand reputation and an orderly, named Emily’s romantic endeavor. I want to be able to give you a summary of this book, but I am left a little perplexed on how to write it without spoilers or confusing people. When I first chose to read this book between the summary and the front cover I was really looking forward and intrigued. I have to say I was pretty disappointed and thought if written a little more concisely and with more detail, it could have been an amazing book. As I read others’ reviews of this, maybe I missed something, but I felt the read left a lot to be desired.

At the beginning as we were learning about the characters I was truly enjoying the story, there was youth, fantasy, but also some tragedy. I really enjoyed the innocence of Emily and the tender side of Dr. D. However, the two story lines that are present, a possible mysterious sex encounter and also the doctor’s dying nephew, confused me. The confusion mainly came at the end where I think certain things felt left out – the whole journey really. Did he mend things with family, how Emily handled not seeing him for years, etc. I feel those were important chapters (that could have been done shortly), because when I got to the last chapter I was confused thinking I missed a chapter and went back to check. Nope, the author decided to just some it up quickly with little explanation in the final chapter.

In addition, thinking that this was a steamy, sex story was also a little disappointing. My fantasy may be more extreme than others, but I felt there was not enough detail in the sex scene (only being one sex scene). After the vibrator scene I was really looking forward to the real sex scene and just felt not enough visualization could come from the description. I am not saying that I won’t read something from this author in the future, but this book was a little bit of a let down for me.

Dr. Desmond Danielson works as a pediatrician in a hospital. The rumor mill is fast at work painting him as a one night then move on type. Emily is an orderly in the same hospital. She has heard all about Dr. D’s reputation. After an encounter outside of the hospital she has diner with him. Will she be just another one night or could this be the beginning of something?

I enjoyed this quick and easy read. The Characters work well together and there is some depth to the story. However, if you are looking for a quick hot and heavy this isn’t the book for you. That being said I enjoyed the story and would recommend giving it a read.

Stars 3.5
Dr D is a guy who has had his fair share of bad luck in the world of dating especially a co-worker, so his rules are simple, no work colleagues and one night only, everyone knows within the hospital and his reputation is of urban myths territory, but he only wants to do his job. So, when he runs into an orderly that seems to pique his interest, will it become messy?

Emily is going about her job, new to the hospital and has heard the gossip about Dr D, although her colleagues are discussing this man every five minutes, she is under the impression that this man is urban myth too good to be true, that is until she meets him in the flesh and starts to have feelings for him. Although she knows he is a one night only deal can she keep her feelings in check, you will have to read to find out.

This is a novella with a great pace and fits a lot into such a short story, but I have to say there may be a little too much to be able to concentrate on the story and the characters. I loved the chemistry between the characters and the whole flow of the story, I just think having two main storylines within a novella just did not work for me. I think the author should have just stuck to the one and then the overall book in my opinion would have read easier.

That said I did thoroughly enjoy the writing and the style of the story, and the secondary characters added depth to the book. I was at the end dying to know what happened to this relationship and hoping there is more to the story than written. All in all, I can’t wait to read more from this wonderful author.

Although a rather short read, Doctor D’s Orderly Affair by C.A. King certainly hit the spot! This quick, easy read was full of fun, wit, and humor. C. A. King simultaneously creates a wonderful story and setting in Eastport General, but realistic, relatable characters. The gossip mill at Eastport General runs rampant, much to the chagrin of Dr. Desmond Danielson, who wishes to forget events of his past. His chance encounter with Emily leads them both down a rabbit hole neither one is prepared for. Their story is endearing and charming, with a little bit of spice. I am looking forward to more books from C. A. King!

While the story has a great plot line, it wasn’t as nearly developed as it could have been. Everything felt rushed. I also wish there were more *spicy* scenes. The 2 that were in there were decent, but they could have been developed better. I also feel like the author put emphasis on unnecessary details. I feel like random, inconsequential details or places where described too in-depth and other scenes should have been more descriptive.
I really enjoyed the premise of the characters of Emily and Dr. Desmond Danielson; however, the development of them is seriously lacking in this story. I liked Emily; however, I feel like the author did her a disservice. There were times when she was a strong, independent woman and then there were times when she was so wishy-washy and portrayed as a stereotypical woman that I wondered if the author had written two different characters. I feel like the author could have done a better job of developing the characters. The start was there, but she just didn’t finish it.
Overall, I feel like there is a lot to be left desired by this book. It was a quick read; however, I was frustrated most of the time because I felt rushed.

They’re both pretty amazing and similar yet different in many ways and it works. I love how the story had romance but also played out the hospital part too, it was well balanced and well written.

This was a rather refreshing love story that focused more on the characters and their lives than just moments of romance with tidbits about things going on in their lives. I loved how easy it was to imagine the story, and the flow, even though it was told from two point of views, was perfect. Though it was pretty short, I feel like the lives of Emily and Dr. D were showcased well, and not a second thought as I’ve seen with other stories of a similar length. It was adorable, really, to read some of the chapters and thoughts from both sides. I think I may have laughed out loud a few times, definitely was caught grinning like a madwoman at my screen more times than I can count. Reading this short story has made me curious about the rest of the books written by this author and I will be checking them out.
