About this ebook

Small dogs can make big changes... if you open your heart.

Carter Embree always hoped someone might rescue him from his productive, tragically boring, and (slightly) ethically compromised life. But when an urchin at a grocery store shoves a bundle of fluff into his hands, Carter goes from rescuee to rescuer—and he needs a little help.

Sandy Corrigan, the vet tech who eases Carter into the world of dog ownership, first assumes Carter is a crazy-pants client who just needs to relax. But as Sandy gets a glimpse of the funny, kind, sexy man under Carter’s mild-mannered exterior, he sees that with a little care and feeding, Carter might be “Super Pet Owner”—and decent boyfriend material to boot.

But Carter needs to see himself as a hero first. As he says goodbye to his pristine house and hello to carpet treatments and dog walkers, he finds there really is more to himself than a researching drudge without a backbone. A Carter Embree can rate a Sandy Corrigan. He can be supportive. He can be a man who stands up for his principles!

He can be the owner of a small dog.

Ratings and reviews

Loved both Characters Loved both Carter and Sandy but Carter the best. He is a civil lawyer working for a firm that walks thin grey lines of ethnicity. His conscious is getting to him when a case comes up involving a dog that was killed by escaping a faulty fence or more so the carelessness of the fence installer leaving the gate open is firm is supporting the fence company. He hates his job lost his last BF because of time. He is quiet but has a good heart…then one day a boy thrusts a box in his hands with a tiny puppy. He takes it to the pet Smart clinic to treat fleas and meets Sandy the vet tech. I also loved Brenda Carters co-worker and friend. And of course, Freckles the puppy steals the show. The story is pretty insta-love as the romance all happens in a couple weeks’ time, but it is so sweet and good. The sex is a bit slower built and sweet just enough to add the element of attraction and appeal to the romance. We also get thanksgiving and Christmas tossed in and I felt that was just icing on the cake. A perfect pick-me-up story to read.
