Publisher's Summary

He doesn’t trust women. She only trusts dogs. Why can’t they keep their paws off each other?  

Darren Reade builds stone walls in Vermont - and around his heart. Women don’t stick around, so it’s better to put up “no trespassing” signs and focus on raising his adopted son. Darren is willing to do whatever it takes to help the boy cope with his mother’s death. But doing it alone is a challenge. 

Grace Hollings indulges her love of old-school jazz by singing nights at the Speakeasy Taproom and spends her days training service dogs, connecting small humans with smart pooches. Of course she had planned to be married already, but a failed engagement has taught her that dogs make better company than men.  

One evening, Grace and Darren don’t exchange names, but they do engage in a single night neither of them will forget. Is once all there is? Or can they train their hearts to trust what they’ve built under the starlight?

A beautiful story

This a an absolutely beautiful story, with so much love, highlighting the awesome support that a service dog provides not only to the person the dog is for but the whole family. Beautifully written and performed.

Awesome

Loved it....the narrators brought to life a truly fabulous story. Serviced trained dogs for children in dire need of extra assistance. Although love was a major factor but so was the heroines special skill set. Brought tears to my eyes to feel how broken a child could be when a connection between dog and child is shattered through carelessness of another human.. senseless however a HEA after all...
