warm investigative doggy romance

In San Francisco Nick Whalen brings his Yorkie Bessie to the Paws-A-While doggie day care managed and owned by former model Serena Oakley. She has a difficult time seeing the pair together. After bewildering him with doggy blogs, social networking and doggy-kids, she knows he is doggy clueless especially about pampered pooches. Her assertion is affirmed when she learns the canine's human pet is Nick's great-Aunt Alice of Sausalito A private investigator, he actually is using the pooch to get insider information on Serena as part of an investigation he is conduction on identity theft in which the evidence points to the day care owner. Still Nick is attracted to his only suspect and soon gets involved with a doggy abandonment case that brings them even closer together. Following up on Love Is a Four-Legged Word, Kandy Shepherd provides another warm investigative doggy romance in which Nick and Serena learn the same lesson that the previous leads learned that WC Field's was right to never co-star with animals; they always steal the show. Fans will relish this jocular romantic suspense as the undercover P.I. and the doggy day care entrepreneur fall in love one bark at a time. Harriet Klausner

Best Bark Book Around

I love this book. It has laugh-out-loud moments with a very sexy hero and a charming heroine. If you are a person who needs a cheer up and who loves animals, this is the book to read. Almost as gorgeous as the hero are the dogs. There are a lot of them, each with entertaining personalities and endearing qualities. I want to adopt Mac, but then I'm animal mad. Shepherd's writing has star quality and I look forward to future books. Cathleen Ross.
