The Doctor Falls For Her Gargoyle

Dr. Sophie Mead has a problem.
She's falling for one of Nocturne Falls' resident gargoyles: the tall, muscled, and sexy Elias Saunders.
But when Elias comes to her after being attacked, she has to put aside her attraction for him. What looks like a small mark on his left forearm is more than just a mark. His skin is turning to stone - and it's spreading.
Sophie enlists the help of an old family friend, and joins Elias on a desperate quest to find out what's happened to him, and how to stop it, before he becomes a statue. Permanently.

My Review

The Doctor Falls for Her Gargoyle was definitely different from the other stories I’ve read so far, where the female character has to rescue the male character. It’s a role reversal of damsel in distress story and I really enjoyed it. Poor Dr. Sophie Mead also is falling for the patient, Elias Saunders, who happens to be a gargoyle. He ends up getting attacked and now he is forced to see Dr. Sophie Mead for help. Unfortunately, it’s going to take more than Sophie to help Elias.

Overall, this was a quick story to read and I really loved the build up of the drama in the story. Like I said in the beginning it was different and I really enjoyed both characters. If you read Cate Dean’s first book to the Nocturne Falls Universe, you would recognize the secondary characters in the story because Elias happens to be the neighbor to Lidia Reston.

If you’re looking for a quick PNR book to read during the summer then I would recommend this book and the rest of the Nocturne Falls Universe stories.

I give this book 4 stars and look forward to reading even more books from Cate Dean in the near future.

Owner/Reviewer at A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog

I guess I should type a bio here. I'm FranJessca, or Fran for short. I'm the owner/reviewer behind A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog. I've been reading and reviewing books on my blog since leaving the Navy in 2011, and I will keep doing it as long as possible. My favorite genres will always be Romance & Fantasy, and I read every subgenre underneath those two genres. (Sorry, not a fan of nonfiction, so don't try to convince me to read it.)
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
