As a dog lover, the cover and summary of this story captured me: a puppy at the center of a romance, right up my alley! The book was a lot more than that, more complicated and more interesting than I gave it credit for to begin with. Not faced-paced, this is one to be enjoyed for the development of the characters. There reactions are real and I found it easy to connect to the leads. Whilst the ending is unsurprising, the detours weren’t expected and make it a book I’ll remember. The dotty Daschie is still my favourite #mustlovedogs
