Dr. Nora Walsh has just been dumped in spectacular fashion, making it the perfect time for a major life change. She figures taking over the medical practice in tiny Matchmaker Bay for a couple of years will help her get over her broken heart, and then she can head back to the big city. But when the first man she sees looks like a superhero god, she wonders if maybe there's something to small-town living after all.

Jake Ramsey also has a broken heart -- one he never expects to heal. He doesn't need people anyway and is content hiding out in his secluded cottage on the beach. But after helping Nora with a medical emergency, he finds himself opening up to the witty, warmhearted doctor. Soon the local matchmakers are working overtime to pair them off, and Jake begins to wonder if his campaign to get Nora to stay is for the town or because he can't bear the thought of her leaving.

Paradise Cove by Jenny Holiday

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dr. Nora Walsh had found out her fiance was cheating on her and decides she needs a change. So she leaves Toronto and takes over a medical practice in Matchmaker Bay, for 2 years to get over the breakup.
Jake Ramsey also has a broken heart and one he thinks will never heal. He likes to hang out in his secluded beach cottage.
Then Jake ends up helping Nora with a medical emergency and he finds himself opening up to her, which he never does with anyone.
They decide to be friends with benefits. No romance at all. But can they really do that.
We also meet a lot of the other people in the community and how some are meddlers and some are just there to be there for each other.
Nora's sister and Grandmother also come for a visit, which Jake gets to know them.
Oh yeah and a dog is involved in this book because of Nora's ex. who happens to pay her a visit.
This was so good and I did read the first book of the series.
I received this from NetGalley and Forver for review,

Jenny Holiday started writing in fourth grade, when her awesome hippie teacher, between sessions of Pete Seeger singing and anti-nuclear power plant letter writing, gave the kids notebooks and told them to write stories. Most of Jenny’s featured poltergeist, alien invasions, or serial killers who managed to murder everyone except her and her mom. She showed early promise as a romance writer, though, because nearly every story had a happy ending: fictional Jenny woke up to find that the story had been a dream, and that her best friend, father, and sister had not, in fact, been axe-murdered.

From then on, she was always writing, often in her diary, where she liked to decorate her declarations of existential angst with nail polish teardrops. Eventually she channelled her penchant for scribbling into a more useful format. After picking up a PhD in urban geography, she became a professional writer, spending many years promoting research at a major university, which allowed her to become an armchair astronomer/historian/particle physicist, depending on the day. Eventually, she decided to try her hand again at happy endings—minus the bloodbaths. You can follow her on twitter at @jennyholi or visit her on the web at jennyholiday.com.
