Book Review
This is the third book in the series and tells us the tale of the last puppy left in the box. Unlike his adventurous sister and hungry brother, Grumpy is not interested in anyone but his mistress. He wants to go back home and when he manages to get out of the cardboard box, that's exactly where he heads. We finally meet Amelia and her step brother Jimmy who is responsible for abandoning the puppies.
Jimmy is at a difficult and cranky stage of his own life and is making things really difficult for his loving and caring elder sister. He's just about lost control of his anger and is about to hurt her or her old dog Belle when the cop bursts in through their front door.
Harley is the support that Amelia needs, and while he is already reeling from one tragedy at the hospital, he's more than happy to be helpful to Amelia. I love the way that things come together for the family after all the twists and turns in the story. The enthusiasm for the pup that the baby girl shows is so cute! All in all a really nice heart warming finish to the series!
Find Me a Home (Holiday Heartwarmers Book 3)
Book Description
In this delightful Christmas love story, Deputy Shawna Mallory finds Billy McCrae – a runaway boy sleeping in a mound of snow with an anxious puppy guarding him. He’s a sad child surviving a terrible existence until she puts a stop to it and becomes his foster parent. She’s drawn to the snarky kid and just wants his life to be happier, his and the stray mutt who won’t leave his side. Not that the boy cares about the dog… or her. Then she meets his father, the one who abandoned the boy when he was five.
John Reid McCrae wants only one thing in his life to make it worth living. Years ago he’d lost his son to a bitter wife and now his goal is to get Billy back. He’ll do whatever it takes, no matter who gets hurt. Until he meets the town’s stunning deputy. Can he put his needs ahead of her happiness?
Book Review
The three pups we first met in
Please Keep Me return in this book. Once the first pup doesn't return Chubby decides to leave the box to find help and this is his story.
Shawna has never felt a connection as strong as the one she feels to the little boy she rescues. She even loves his furry guardian pup. Billy is an angry, unhappy and sad boy. He refuses to go back to his foster home, and can't allow himself the luxury of loving the pup either. This means Shawna is able to hang on to him for a while longer as her social worker friend tries to pull out the story of abuse in the foster home.
The surprise in the parcel is the fact that Billy is not really an orphan. His dead mother had vindictively kept the knowledge of his father from him. Now John knows that his son has been shuttled into the foster care system and he's back to stake a claim. Unfortunately he also feels like staking a claim to his son's current care giver. The deputy may love his son, but could she have place in her heart for him as well?
Really sweet and heart warming. I can't wait to see who Cranky, the third pup, ends up with.

Book Review
Belinda loves her precocious four year old Hollie, even though she believes she was drugged and raped. She doesn't remember much of what happened at the party at the Carlton home five years ago, but her black out had consequences that changed her life. She would hate the man who caused the events forever. There was no excuse for such behaviour in her book.
Reed is a successful surgeon today, but he's never been able to get over the one night stand he had five years ago. He's been comparing all his current partners to that sweet, innocent and sexy Lindy. Little does he realize when he jumps into a lake to rescue a pup and a baby that he's going to see her again.
But she doesn't seem to recognize him. He can make out that she's treating him as a total stranger. What he can;t figure out is why? Does she really have no idea who he is, or is she trying to hide a deeper secret?
