NOT THAT KIND OF GIRL, the final book in Susan Donovan's Dog
Walkers trilogy, brings back Roxanne Bloom and Eli
Gallagher. She's transferred her man-hating ways to Lilith,
her pit-bull-boxer. He is the dog whisperer who may be the
last hope for preventing a death sentence when Lilith bites
Roxie's sleazy ex-boyfriend after he breaks into her home
and threatens Roxie. Eli seizes his chance to reform both
Lilith's and Roxie's man-hating ways and explore a
relationships with a women with whom he has a long simmering
attraction.
NOT THAT KIND OF GIRL brings back all the favorite
characters seen in The Night She Got Lucky and
Ain't Too Proud To Beg. Not having read the other books
in the series (though I plan to change that ASAP), I can say
that the story stands on its own. I suspect fans will find
this book a satisfying ending to the series. Ms. Donovan has
created a love story that elicits a range of reactions from
the reader- laughter, anger, tears, and smiles. Roxie's
rage against men was understandable and was balanced by her
love for her friends and Lilith. I was touched by Eli's
patient understanding of both Roxie and Lilith in the midst
of his own personal quest to find his father. This book
will keep you reading late in to the night and rooting for
happy endings all around.
Roxanne Bloom is through with love. Fresh on the heels of
a bad break-up, she’s decided to devote all her time to
her man-slamming website—and her man-hating dog, Lilith.
But this pit-bull-Boxer is so good at unleashing her fury
(and her owner’s) that the male victims keep piling up…and
now it’s time to get some sensitivity training.
Enter Eli Gallagher, one of the best—and hottest—canine
experts in town. The more Eli gets to know Roxie, the more
he senses that she’s been hurt by men in the past—just
like her dog. With a little gentle prodding, and a whole
lot of patience, Eli hopes to gain Roxie’s trust and
soothe her broken heart. Eli can see that Roxie’s bark is
way worse than her bite. But she’s not putting her guard
down just yet—even if she is falling deeply, madly,
doggedly in love with him...
