Title: Timeline problems in an otherwise good story
Product review: The hero is a good guy, the heroine has problems (and so does her father, in spades), the "other man" is no emotional prize but does a very decent thing at the end. From a purely romance perspective, the book is a satisfying read. The main problem is timing in the backstory. The heroine, a physician, has been "away" for years, whereas the hero, a veterinarian, has been "home" in the small town where they grew up. This seems to leave out of consideration that the education needed to produce a veterinarian is just as long and strenuous as that needed to produce a physician, so that - logically - he must have been away himself a minimum of seven or eight years before returning home to open his practice and can't have been back for more than six years (given the ages assigned to them), no matter how a reader tries to stretch it.
