Fresh Fiction Review

Romance Contemporary

Paws-A-While is Serena Oakley's doggy daycare/spa catering to upscale San Francisco dogs. Serena's become good at matching clients to pets, and when super-sexy, ruggedly masculine Nick Whalen enters her establishment with Bessie, a tiny Yorkie-Poo, she's a bit taken aback at the pairing. Not only that, Nick doesn't have the usual attitude most clients exhibit toward their dog-kids. Still, Nick seems nice enough and Bessie passes the Paws-A-While screening with flying colors when she bonds with Serena's Maltese, Snowball, making her the newest member of the exclusive club.

Serena is right to be suspicious of her newest client. Nick is a private investigator and Bessie is his "in" at the doggie daycare. Serena is definitely hiding something, and if it has anything to do with the identity theft ring he believes she's running, he's going to take her down.

Kandy Shepherd's HOME IS WHERE THE BARK IS is a delightful romantic comedy with a cleverly plotted mystery thrown in. In addition to Serena and Nick, who are very likable characters, Ms. Shepherd has created a variety of four-legged characters guaranteed to amuse and entertain. HOME IS WHERE THE BARK IS is tail-wagging fun!

SUMMARY

From the author of the delightful Love is a Four-Legged Word comes another novel of romance, mystery, and dogs.

Former model Serena Oakley has opened Paws-A-While, a doggy daycare and spa in San Francisco. When a ruggedly handsome client walks in, holding a Yorki-Poo too dainty for his personality, Serena knows something's not right.

Undercover PI Nick Whalen has followed a series of identity frauds to Serena and is determined to dig up secrets he's certain she is hiding. Despite their mutual distrust, Nick and Serena find themselves bonding over an injured, orphaned dog. And soon they're arousing more than just suspicions. But will the pair trust in love enough to thwart a danger circling too close to home?

Re: Tail-wagging fun in this delightful romantic comedy with a clever mystery thrown in.

I love this review and want this book
now. In fact, having never read the
first one, I want that one too! I
wouldn't have know about this 'new to
me' author except for today's post in
Fresh Fiction. Thanks!
