Publisher's summary

Jason Davies was looking forward to graduation, when his dreams of being a veterinarian in Southern California would soon become a reality. However, a decision made years earlier changes his career path and his life. When he finds himself in Birdie, Oklahoma, Jason must contend with the weathered and outspoken Dr. Keating who he’s been sent to assist as well as the hilarious cast of townsfolk who keep him guessing at every turn. As he adjusts to his new rural life, Jason soon realizes that what he thought he wanted in a career, a relationship, and a home takes him on a journey he never expected.

Little Herriot

I did not find James Herriot in this tale of the tribulations of Jason Davies. Oh sure, Herriot was mentioned a time or two, but having read Herriot, I expected Suit to present an American side of the veterinarian story. I expected tales of deworming pets and farm animals, What I got was a delousing of Davies love life.

Veterinary Grad Finds His Way

Newly graduated from Veterinary School, James Davies is assigned his first job in an out-of-the-way town that does not fit his exciting expectations. The story winds its way through Dr. Davies' interactions with the little town's interesting folks. Those interactions keep the story flowing and Dr. Davies' old and new love interests are woven throughout. A good deal of focus is given to his decision whether to stay at his assigned position or to move on to his dream job as well as which relationship he should to pursue. He waffles back and forth a lot and that aspect of the story felt endless at times. I have read all of James Herriot's books and I can appreciate where the author was going with his story.
