In a deliciously warm and fuzzy new romance from Melinda Metz - best known for her signature animals who play Cupid - one scruffy former street dog will show two people in Sedona, AZ just how far kindness and love can go.
GIRL MEETS DOG
Riley Bernard is living her best life. She recently landed a job at a resort in Sedona, Arizona, and her goal of working in all fifty states is well underway. Everything is going according to plan—until she sees a scrappy-looking dog limping along Highway 179. The poor pooch obviously needs help. . Unfortunately, adopting a stray is not part of Riley’s plan. She needs a plan B . . .
GIRL HIDES DOG
Determined to find the dog a home, Riley coaxes him into her car and heads to work at the High Sky Resort. She figures she can stash him in one of the empty guest cabins. But when she sneaks the pooch inside, she’s surprised to find it’s occupied—by a very attractive, nearly naked man, Daniel Acker, who is instantly charmed by the scruffy canine. And by Riley, too . . .
GIRL UNLEASHES TROUBLE
With Daniel’s help, Riley tries to find the dog a good home—at the risk of losing her job. Her micro-managing boss has a zero tolerance for trouble.. And somehow, Riley seems to attract other animals that need rescuing, too, including an injured rabbit. But her biggest problem? The closer she gets to finding that trouble-making dog a home, the more she can’t bear to part with the furry guy. Or a certain human named Daniel . . .
