Publisher's Summary

Romantic novel of the year 2010.

When the abandoned strays from a local dogs' home are matched with brand new owners, it turns out it might not be just the dogs who need rescuing.

Rachel's aunt has left her a house, a border collie and, despite Rachel knowing nothing about dogs, a crowded kennel. But since her life has collapsed, she's not sure she can deal with any more lost souls.

Zoe's ex-husband has given their children a puppy. The kids are in love, but she's the one stuck training Toffee the impossible Labrador. She's nearly at the end of her tether - until Toffee leads her to a handsome doctor....

Meanwhile Natalie and Johnny's marriage hasn't been easy since they started trying for a baby. But is a fridge-raiding, sofa-stealing Basset hound like Bertie really the child substitute they're looking for?

As the new owners' paths cross on the town's dog-walking circuits, their lives become interwoven. And they - and their dogs - learn some important lessons about loyalty, companionship and unconditional love....

I loved this book

The story of a 39 yo Rachel who is just getting over being heart broken. She inherits her aunts lost dog kennel and house.
This is not just about her but about the women in this little town and also about her aunt and her parents.
The book is written beautifully and I was able to relate some of her story to my own life experience.
It had me laughing and also in tears.
If you love animals especially dogs and a bit of romance, then your going to love this book.
