Carly Kennedy and Max Sheffington did not know each other. But when their dogs got swapped by someone returning them to their homes because the dog-walker was indisposed, Carly and Max finally met. But not right away, because the dog-walker was in jail. Finding out who had which dog was not easy.
This was a cute "dogs bring people together" story. But between their work life, with Carly struggling financially after a layoff from her publicity firm, hoping to land a job in New York City, and with Max trying to overcome the final hurdles to reach tenure as a neuroscientist at his university in Texas, the stars were not cooperating. And their families were also a contributing factor in the difficulties of becoming a couple. This is an understatement!
This was a light, but engaging afternoon read. The dogs were as compelling as the people characters, which added to the charm.
