when your dog ends up being your wingman…
The cutest romance book to get me out of a long reading slump. The characters were lovable and sometimes too relatable. You fall in love with the characters as you watch them fall in love too. Conflicts in the story were funny and sometimes realistic. Four stars for slow and feeling kind of dragged out at times but overall a great enjoyable read.

Who doesn't love a good love story that has two cute dogs in it? Personal goal to have a cute fall date in a dog park!

A cute book! I loved the concept of the accidental meeting and the banter between the love interests is so cute. There is definitely no shortage of drama in this book.
As a side note, I purchased a hard copy of this book because it caught my attention. Once I started reading, I realized that it was misprinted and had several blank pages. I ended up borrowing from the library to finish it, but definitely disappointed by that.

Touch and go, by the end. Thought not conclusive

This was a lot of fun, cheesy and a little rushed in areas but mostly enjoyable. Liked the scenario, dual perspective and all the crazy things going on in their lives. I did feel second hand anxiety for our main female character several times but I was invested.

Honestly, a romance involving dogs? Sign me up. And that's what you get! A cute romance involving with the perfect amount of dogs!
I received an ecopy of this book through Netgalley; however, my opinions are my own.

I received an ARC of this title from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
"We should all be such lucky dogs."
Once upon a time, there was a stoner/dealer/dog walker in Austin, Texas, and his getting arrested for dealing created a whole lot of chaos...
Carly Kennedy, a public relations expert currently failing at finding a steady income, didn't know what she was getting into when she agreed to take in Baxter, the somber basset hound her newly divorced mother bequeathed her harried mother-of-three sister. But it certainly wasn't a dog mix-up.
Dr. Tobias Maxwell Sheffington III, better known as Max, loves dogs. He's a neuroscientist up for tenure, and incredibly devoted to his father and his younger brother, Jamie, who is Autistic. He is also the proud dog dad of Hazel, a cheerful basset hound whom he dotes upon. Then, one day, he comes home to find that his precious Hazel has been replaced with the most emo basset hound you could ever lay eyes on.
Carly and Max eventually find each other, returning the dogs to their rightful humans... only to find that Hazel and Baxter adore each other, and can't stand to be parted. Soon, Carly and Max start to feel the same way about each other...
Family drama, depressed fashion designers, out of control toddlers, and a whole lot of dogs come together for this unforgettable rom-com!
While this was very good (I read it in a day, so it was good), the amount of drama--especially the drama that Carly is forced to endure--to be somewhat anxiety inducing. It just seemed like one thing after another and constantly being in a no-win situation. Carly is a saint for not losing it on everyone every five minutes over their stupid nonsense, or having a mental breakdown. But the romance is great! The premise is phenomenal, and the writing is amazing, though there are some chapters that bounce around with timeframes (is it currently in the moment? Is it two days ago? Who knows?) that made it distracting and hard to follow along. Though other than the main leads, the only character I cared about was Jamie; he was much more fleshed out than the rest, and the one I least wanted to smack upside the head. Jamie deserves all the dogs to pet. I'd take him to a million dog shows.
