Publisher's summary

The first thing I learned at vet school was to always expect the unexpected.

Well, I sure never saw Santiago Torres or his adorable Great Dane coming.

Santi is everything I’m not. Tall, confident, overbearing, and if I’m to believe his advances, he’s also very experienced in...well, you know what.

I always play safe, but it’s time to ditch the V-card. We couldn’t be more different, but that doesn’t matter, because this is just a one-time thing.

I’m not going to want more, right?

I’m not going to fall for him, right?

How to Catch a Vet is the sixth book in the Chester Falls series and features an opposites attract story between a virgin and a player, a Great Dane with a tendency to rescue—read: kidnap—other people’s pets, and a small town like no other.

Heartwarming in what didn't happen

The most heartwarming part of this book is what didn't happen. There was a chance that one vet's life wouldn't be as bad as he originally thought. It turns out that specific thing happens. But it's not a bad as he thought it would be.
The other vet, he's not super fit like so many other characters are in every book, ever (not just romance books). And he stressed over that, and his man doesn't try to change him, but loves that part of him.
So the author writes a great feel good book, but makes it relatable too. Bad things happen, but that doesn't mean the rest of your life sucks. You're not the ideal human specimen society says we should turn ourselves into, so what! Be healthy and happy. Everyone else will adjust.

I love this narrator! He's so happy sounding. OK, not sparkly Tom - cause honey that's just too exhausting. But he sounds very bayou, which is great for these feel good series. Thank you.

A Veteran & Veterinarian Find Love

The "vet" featured in this hurt/comfort love story is actually two-fold - veterinarian Micah and military veteran Santiago. They forge a relationship - a first for Micah - while both face significant upheaval.

Micah is dealing with potential business ruin and lingering self-consciousness issues, while Santi is diagnosed with a serious degenerative eye condition that could lead to blindness. They have chemistry and are quite sweet together, and find support and strength in each other. And cheers for a lot of body-positivity and pet adorableness throughout this story too.

Narrator Nick Hudson has done a wonderful job voicing this series, and delivered another solid performance here. I especially liked his effectively conveying Micah's sensitivity and vulnerability. My only quibble is sometimes there was humor in his voice/tone that didn't quite jive with my interpretation of the mood at hand.

I've hopscotched through the Chester Falls series, which made tracking the plethora of secondary characters a challenge here. The books and coupled up characters are highly interconnected, so I'd recommend reading the books in order for maximum enjoyment. I received this free review copy audio book by request and have left this honest review voluntarily.

Sweet addition to the series

This is a so sweet addition to the Chester Falls series, as always spectacularly narrated by Nick Hudson. Nick always manages to get just the right voices for every character and infuses them with life and emotion. I loved Micah and Santiago, although Micah's insecurity from years of homophobia, bullying. and disregard, broke my heart. In spite of a successful vet practice and gaining Santi's love, even at the end, I wasn't sure he'd left it all behind completely. The ending with Santi was sweet and heart-warming.

I received a free review copy of this audiobook from the author and am voluntarily leaving this honest review

I love Chester Falls

Every story in this series is great! I adored Santi and Micah. Micah is so shy and it was great listening to him come out of his shell. And Santi...he is so swoon worthy. He has his own issues dealing with his life and status changes. These two were amazing snf and Nick Hudson really brought them both to life.

May I have Olive for a little while?

Because I need more critters in my life *dies laughing*

But, yes, if you have a pet like Olive, you better date the vet :P

This was funny, lighthearted and filled with adorable animals this is a go-to feel-good read; the characters are endearing and the way in which both fight their mutual attraction is... well, hopeless :P

I liked that there were neither miracles nor magic cures; what we find here is deep understanding, full acceptance and lots and lots of love.

Now, I'll sit here just waiting for my tour of the sanctuary :P

Santiago & Micah

Santiago is facing a huge crossroads with the loss of his military career. Micah has a terrible self image and problems with his veterinary clinic. I like they are both vets. An easy to read story with two great characters.

Cute

There were a lot of cute and mischievous animals in this story and I loved it along with Santi and Micah and how they both had a crush on each other they weren’t ready to act on when they were younger which was adorable and I loved how helpful and caring they were to each other and other it was another great story in the series

Enjoyed Revisiting Chester Falls!

I’ve enjoyed my time in this lovely place. The characters are still fun and likable. The flow of the story was steady and easy to get lost in. This story seemed to deal with more emotional topics than the previous books, but it was still a good story.

It was easy to connect and feel for the characters. I felt like their HEA was hard fought for and well deserved. I can understand how insecurities can grab hold and make you believe irrational things. If you’ve never experienced severe low self worth or esteem, you will likely not understand how that can happen, but you can have empathy—even for a fictitious character.

Nick Hudson did a good job with the characters and making the story enjoyable to listen to. He’s synonymous with Ana Ashley’s books, now. I cannot imagine anyone else narrating them. I hope she continues to use him for any of her upcoming books.

Micah and Santi

How to Catch a Vet is Book 6 in the Chester Falls series. I absolutely adore this series and this book might be my favorite. Micah is a veterinarian who tends to keep to himself. Santi is an army veteran who seeks Micah's advice about some animals he has acquired. Santi and Micah are such sweet characters and are so perfect for each other. I loved how Micah and Santi cared for each other. It was nice to see Santi help Micah with his self confidence. And for Micah to let Santi know he'd always be there with him. I loved all the animals and could picture them following each other and cuddling together. It was great to see some of the other characters at the bachelor auction. This is an enjoyable book with all the feels and I definitely recommend it.
Narrator Nick Hudson does another amazing job in the series. I've really enjoyed listening to him throughout this series.
