The Therapist #2
Shameless
~ An Alpha Male, Relationship Coach, Taboo, Erotic Romance ~
A mask is temporary, even if we don't realize it. My mask was put in place against my will. It was securely fastened by my mother and all of her judgement and expectations, and I willingly hid behind it until I could no longer bear it—until my mask slowly slipped away as I looked in the mirror and caught a glimpse of who I truly am, and what I really want.
After being made to feel enough embarrassment and shame to last a lifetime, I realize I have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. My therapist, Dr. Malcolm Colson, has helped me remove my shackles, and I’m able to take my time learning what pleases me. I won’t let judgment hold me back, I won’t be shamed into chastity, and I will no longer allow myself to go unsatisfied.
Now that the mask is off, I’ll never hide behind it again. Instead, I’ll discover what my needs are, and never again settle for a man who isn't capable of meeting them.

I can not express how much I am enjoying The Therapist series. We get to read two stores—one of Dr. Malcolm Colson and then one of his patients.
In Book Two, we met Tessa, Seeking help with Her and Her boyfriend, Brandon. Brandon is a complete jerk. Tessa is used to doing what others tell her to do. Her mother is always behind controlling her strings. Brandon breaks up with her, and Tessa continues Therapy and wants to find her true self. Malcolm helps her along the way and is very supportive. I just love how he was with her.
Malcolm has continued his relationship with Ava despite all the red flags. The chemistry between the two is off the charts. But it’s not enough. I don't think Malcolm can handle her. Their relationship is unstableness d differently keeps you on edge to what will happen next.
This book was a great read, and I recommend this series. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Once again we enter the world of Dr. Malcolm Colson and again this continuing story doesn't disappoint at all. You get to see two stories running side by side. One of the patients and Malcolm's own. These books are very clever and diverse. I'd say you almost get therapy sessions whilst reading them.
The story this time is about Tessa one of Malcolm's patients. It starts off as relationship therapy but becomes so much more for me. I don't really want to delve into it too far, as these books are great to read first hand.
As well as reading about Tessa, you also get to read the developing relationship between Malcolm and Ava. One that I am unsure is stable or will even work out but it shows different sides of people and it keeps you on your toes and guessing as to what will occur.
This book is a great read and a huge recommendation from me. This author's words are so underestimated and he deserves more of a wider audience.

This book was not as good as the other books I've read so far. I don't like that there are two different stories being told. I understand that it shows us who he is but at the same time it introduces a character that is meaningless. Despite that I am glad that he helps her to realize that she is more than just what society labels her. I love that she gets into a relationship with someone and that it is actually going well for her. I was glad when he told Ava that it was over. She was being very crazy and I don't think we've seen the last of her.

Wow I can’t explain how much I am loving these books, but I will try my best to. In this book we continue long with therapist Malcolm as we get more in depth to his own personal life and we also get a new set of patients he is helping. It starts with Brandon and Tessa having relationship issues after being together for 2 years, Brandon is a jerk and Tessa is use to doing what others expect her to do so things don’t seem to work out for them, but Tessa continues her therapy with Malcolm. Tessa is out to find herself and what she likes or does not like, Malcolm helps her along the way being a great supportive person helping her along her path while also dealing with his own personal issues. Malcolm was a fantastic therapist and he knew exactly what he wanted out of his relationship and life in general and while I don’t think he handled Ava too well because let’s face it she is bat crap crazy. I did love seeing how someone who is so strong, powerful, and confident that helped others easily didn’t exactly have his own life in order, but he was trying. These books keep amazing me and each one I love that we see new patients with new issues for Malcolm to help them through all while watching him try to navigate his own life. It’s a refreshing take on romance novels and very unique, I also love how the author tries to empower women and say that it is ok to be who you want to be so forget what others have to think about how you live your life.

I really enjoyed reading Shameless which is the second book in this new series by W.S. Greer. Dr. Malcolm Colson is a relationship and sex therapist and I once again loved observing Malcolm helping his patients.
This book focuses on Tessa who has started having therapy sessions with Malcolm for relationship advice. I absolutely loved witnessing the transformation in her as she, with Malcolm’s help, works out what she wants in life and gains the confidence to make some necessary changes. She is a lovely person and I wish her a happy and successful future.
In the last book we saw Malcolm enter a Dom/Sub relationship with his ex-patient Ava. They are so suited for each other in a sexual way but I was left wondering at the end of the last book if he had bitten off more than he can chew. Seeing their relationship develop in this instalment hasn’t filled me with any confidence for him at all. I love that their interactions have me on edge and I cannot wait to see what develops in the next book.

Book 2 in the therapist series is just as entertaining as e first. Again there are two stories told in the book. That of the therapist Malcolm and his new patient Tessa. Tessa needs Malcolm’s help in rediscovering who she is and just what she wants in a relationship. After a breakup, Tessa must go on her own journey to live out her fantasies and be The best person she can be, personally and professionally.
Meanwhile Malcolms release with his former patient Ava starts to deteriorate when Ava shows signs of being too clingy. How will this relationship expert handle it?
I loved the alternate POVs and the sex scenes are very hot! WS Greer is a talented writer who knows his characters very well. Highly recommended

Shameless is the second book in The Therapist series. Book one is a must read before jumping into this story.
Dr. Malcolm Colson is a sex and relationship therapist. In this story we read of Tessa who with the help of her therapist feels so much freer. I love we get more of Malcolms private life as well.
I really enjoyed this story. I’m looking forward to reading more of this series in the future.

Ava is crazy. I have this feeling she will do something crazy. Who’s stalking him? Loved Tessa and her discovering who she is. I can not wait to read the next book.

A good bridge book
It was ok, a slow story , not enough drama for my taste, but I'm so looking forward to book 3, just to see what Ava has In store . This book bridges the series nicely, for what I'm hoping will be a climax, (excuse the pun) 😂

Loving this series more and more. We have a different couple and their issues are so relatable to alot of couples today. We also see more of Malcolm and the crazy he's dealing with and this has me excited for the next installment!

When I read a serie and the first book is good it is hard to keep up with it. You have high expectations and trust in the writer. W.S. Greer didn't disappoint at all.
Once again he hit the right zpot to make this book worth it. This book has the perfect balance between thriller and romance.

In this series, the books are portraying 2 stories. The therapist (Malcom Colson) and a couple, the patient.
The client:
Her mother literally blamed her by her hypothetical rape just bc she slept with someone she didn’t know.
The therapist:
Ava, the girlfriend is just fucking crazy and he realizes the problem and just continues with it.

While it was a good continuation from book one, only part of it carried over, thought maybe Malcolm might see them out somewhere. Anyway, does anyone else think that she needs more help than what he is thinking that she needs. If he isn't careful, he might find that he needs therapy himself

Exciting!
I loved this book (and the 1st one) and how Malcom is growing into his realization of his own faults!! Can’t wait to read the next!!

Oh here we go again, Dr Malcolm giving out his sage advice whilst dealing with his own personal issues. This series is fantastic, it brings such realism to relationships and you connect so much with Dr Malcolm's clients. Can't wait to see how things unfold.
