BLURB:
Wilby Linfox is the world’s biggest flirt…
From the moment he stumbles into my life—drunk, singing, and shirtless—I knew he’d be trouble… But I had no idea just how much trouble he’d be.
But I’m in Australia to do exactly three things: work, check out some touristy hotspots, and scatter my mother’s ashes.
Not on the cards? Getting sidetracked by a charming, ruggedly handsome Aussie vet who’s quite possibly got the loudest laugh in the southern hemisphere.
Another thing I wasn’t expecting? Finding out my work puts me on a direct collision course with Wilby Linfox.
Wilby
Sometimes you meet someone and you just know they’re going to mean something to you.
That’s what happened with Col Langdon. Sure, he’s a cranky, uptight New Yorker who seems strangely immune to my serenading, but he’s been living rent-free in my head since the night we met.
It makes no sense. I’m the king of casual. After a good time, not a long time. But with Col…it’s different.
When he shows up unexpectedly in my hometown, I hope it means we get to rekindle what we started in Sydney.
But then I find out the real purpose of his visit, and my feelings for him explode into a volcanic rage. If Col thinks he can waltz in here and destroy my family, I’ll give him the biggest fight of his life.

The Flirty Vet is packed with deliciously fun low angst / high heat adventures including: lovers to enemies to lovers, bi awakening, grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity, chosen family, gorgeous Aussie vets, small-town shenanigans, and a heartwarming happily ever after!

REVIEW:
What a masterly written story!!
This story takes place in Australia and I love it.
Wilby has a witty way with words, he’s a tease, fun and sunny. Meeting grumpy New Yorker Col while singing along the streets brought them together. Wilby was the one singing and Col complained from his hotel window about the irritating noise.
The time they spent together was unforgettable. Both are impressed. It seems a goodbye wasn’t even a real goodbye. Col is here for business and ends up in Willy’s town.
Wilby is an open book, oh boy he so is <3. Col on the other hand is a very closed book but is willing to tell one secret, he’s also here to scatter his mother’s ashes.
Wilby is a vet. Living the good life, and has some awesome hobbies, something he’s willing to share with Col.
Col has anxiety attacks, unwilling to share but they happen, so Wilby is witnessing them.
“She’s a Cessna 170. Single engine, four seater. Pure joy to fly. Made in the USA just like you…”
While Wilby is a shining bright star with no harm in him, he’s also quite protective, with a bunch of responsibilities on his shoulders.
Finding out Col’s business purpose and the consequences for Wilby’s family business is reason enough to cut off any communication. Both are miserable.
Oh boy, we arrived at the enemies-to-lovers part, read yourself why this is… funny!
The author did an excellent job on character development, gosh what a guys they are, so much to learn about them! Read it! read it! read it! That’s my advice!
If you are familiar with this author you know you’ll laugh a lot, but also be deeply moved, have goosebumps, and tears dripping. This story was all this!
A full, overflowing with feelings story, with rich characters and details, absolutely stunningly developed! Every time I finish a Casey Cox’s book I think this is my favorite, yes, this is my favorite!
Word of the day: Competitive! Ha!
