The Quiet Professor The Best Of Betty Neels

Rating:
Summary: I loved Reading this Book!
Review: I didn't find the Quiet Professor by British romance book author Betty Neels to be stale at all and I really liked it, Sure some of her books have different characters in the same situations like an English nurse falling for a Dutch doctor but her books are so well written that each books situations always seem like it's totally new and I really liked the characters, the English nurse Megan Rodner and the Dutch doctor Jake Van Belfeld and in this book instead of being written as a girl plain in looks Megan is described as being very pretty so to me that is different than a lot of Betty's books where the plain or homely girl falls for the handsome doctor and wins his heart even though I still love her plain girl handsome guy love stories and I love reading about what is the same and what is different about the medical field in America and Europe! I highly recommend this sweet endearing book!

Summary: Sterile dressing
Review: I've always enjoyed Betty Neels' books, as they're usually light but satisfying. This book was okay, but no where near her best. Megan is a nurse who is working with the imminent Dutch doctor, Jake van Belfeld. He falls for her nearly immediately, but for Megan, she's in a stale engagement with very 'suitable' Oscar, with whom she shares little to no passion, but she's very comfortable with and believes is best for her. But when Oscar falls for megan's little sister, Megan does the honorable thing and backs out. What she doesn't realize is Dr. Benfeld is waiting for her to realize that HE'S the man of her dreams, but it takes forever for Megan to wake up and smell the antiseptic. I thought she was often a very annoying character, who didn't see anything unless its spelled out for her. But Dr. Benfeld could be just as annoying, as it was hard to realize he loved her until the very end. In fact, more than once you felt he couldn't stand her! But he was a patient man, and waited for her to open her eyes. So, I found this book light in the romance department, but I'll give it a thumbs up if you like your romance a little stale.
