Max Abbott is called back home for the summer when he learns his grandmother, Ava, needs help cleaning out her old Victorian home. The hardest part of being back in Cruickshank, NC, is running into his ex, Caro Buchanan, who assists Ava around the house. They did not part on the best of terms, but seeing her again reignites that old flame. Leave it to a stray puppy caught in the bushes to finally bring these two together for a summer of just sex, no strings attached. Caro fosters dogs and works to place them in loving homes, but the new pet is not the only thing she is falling in love with, even as she harbors a secret that may threaten any chance she and Max have of finding their own “forever home” together.
VERDICT Richard (An Unexpected Christmas) delivers small-town, Southern atmosphere in this story with some sexy scenes and vulnerable characters, who readers can easily champion as they grapple with larger issues such as the death of a parent.
