Willow Taylor lives in a castle with large walls and iron fences. But this is no ordinary castle. It's called Heartstone Psychiatric Hospital and it houses forty other patients. It has nurses with mean faces and techs with permanent frowns.

It has a man, as well. A man who is cold and distant. Whose voice drips with authority. And whose piercing gray eyes hide secrets, and maybe linger on her face a second too long.

Willow isn't supposed to look deep into those eyes. She isn't supposed to try to read his tightly-leashed emotions. Neither is she supposed to touch herself at night, imagining his powerful voice and that cold but beautiful face.

No, Willow Taylor shouldn't be attracted to Simon Blackwood at all.

Because she's a patient and he's her doctor. Her psychiatrist.

The medicine man.

For those who love the rain

Saffron A Kent is a new author for me, and one whose work I will continue to explore. The first part of this story really captured me, Kent has a way of really working her words 'right'. However, the middle of the story was all about sex. Now sex is fine, but to me it was overdone - the middle of the story is saturated with it.

Yes, this is about a forbidden romance, and so many professional lines were crossed - but it is fiction, and it certainly portrays an interesting situation. It also portrays the reality that we are all 'broken' in different ways.

I liked the story line, I liked the writing and I would have liked to have seen more really well crafted sentences - which there are some really beautiful ones. The characters are engaging and as a reader I did find a connection with them.

Definitely worth your time in giving it a go.

Real Magic.

As this came closer to release I was starting to have my doubts, how was Saffron going to pull this off without the whole thing sounding whacky? But she did. All these characters feel like real people. Between those that have eating disorders, straight out depression, suicidal ideation or other mental illness, they weren’t glanced or glossed over, they weren’t made fun of they were all shown in a caring manner. As for the relationship between Willow and Simon, I think she said it best when Willow said it was her heart wanting Simon not her illness. They felt a connection and they went with it. I really enjoyed this novel and I look forward to the rest of Saffron’s books.

3 1/2 stars

Okay, I'm going to be the odd man out here and rate my reading experience of Saffron A Kent's at 3 1/2 stars. It's my first read from this author and I liked it but there was a section maybe from 1/2 way to 3/4 where I was skimming/flicking because I just wanted to get to the chase, I was bored and unusual for me it actually took me 4 or 5 days to finish. I love taboo, I love the older/younger trope so technically I should have loved this tale but sadly I only liked it, it was okay.

Wonderfully emotional taboo story with so much meaning !!!

27 September 2018

Format: Kindle Edition

What an emotional roller coaster of a journey this book has taken me on. Saffron A. Kent is truly a very remarkable author who knows just how to write a raw, gritty, angst filled emotional romance along with that taboo genre she does so well.

Simon and Willow's story is a unique one. Willow is a depressive person and has been placed in the care of Heartstone psychiatric hospital to hopefully get some much needed help. It is here where she meets Simon Blackwood, her psychiatrist. The attraction and the furtive glances between them both were palpable and slow burning but were fascinating to read. Simon himself is a closed book and has many issues he deals with daily himself; I really did enjoy his character. Willow was a breath of fresh air if not a little annoying at times but she did grow on me as the story progressed. Two wonderfully interesting characters that when the layers were peeled back, revealed so much more than what I was expecting.

Due to the nature of this book, I thought the subject matter was dealt with extremely well and with pivotal secondary characters and some smoking hot passionate encounters this book is an absolute must read!!!

EXCELLENT WRITING STYLE, BUT UNREALISTIC PLOT

18 October 2018

Format: Kindle Edition

'Medicine Man' by Saffron A. Kent was a sensual, sexually-charged, forbidden-love story. It also featured some mystery and serious issues (including suicidal thoughts and depression).
The MCs, high school grad, Willow Taylor and (Dr) Simon Blackwood were both deep, solitary and taciturn individuals. While able to be somewhat sociable, they were actually isolated and guarded 'islands' - each with their own constant burdens.
Saffron's excellent writing style was impressive, at times - a combination of lyrical, atmospheric, penetrating and edgy. While readers heard from Simon, mostly the trope was told via Willow's POV.
Why 2 stars then? I will try not to be too specific as I don't want to include spoilers, so please don't read on if you are concerned. I thought the first half of the plot was brilliant, haunting and clever. But the second half fell into predictable, unrealistic, contrived and troubling scenes. Crushes and sexual attraction happen, but the ethical and medical circumstances and possible consequences in MM felt quite alarming to me. While the story was supposed to give hope, I found the second half treated mental health like a soap opera. Perhaps my opinion is influenced by my job, but Willow and Simon's story conflicts with my experience of working with challenged teens bridging adulthood.

Mixed feelings

8 October 2018

Format: Kindle Edition

This book left me with very mixed emotions. And very difficult to review. Some parts were beautiful, other parts dull. Sometimes dragged on. I did like Willow, she was a real warrior. Simon I had trouble connecting with for most of the book. He left me hot and cold, just like his personality. Some things worked, some not so much. 3-4 stars. Will try another from this author.

Loved It.

Like any Saffron A. Kent novel, Medicine Man will challenge, confront, and move you. Her characters are complex, three-dimensional and flawed. They're beautifully broken. They're made up of hidden lies, shadowed vulnerabilities, and layer upon layer of half-truths.

I mean this in the best possible way.

After all, who wants to read about a heroine who's perfect? Who wants a hero that's got his life together? Where's the raw, animalistic, compulsion to break the rules in order to make new ones if there's nothing broken in the first place? Where's the risk? The reward? Exactly. And that's what Saffron does so well. She crafts highly original characters who own the page from the first word to the last.

So yeah, I loved it. I loved every minute of this slow burn romance.
