Love and lust can strike at totally unexpected places and inopportune times. When two strong men fight a powerful attraction that slips up on them, sometimes a loyal and loving canine cupid needs to take matters in his or her paws to make it happen for a stubborn master!
Previously available only in electronic format, these sizzling short stories have now been combined for a paperback edition! Included are the tales...
Solitary rancher Damon Carhart expects to spend the rest of his life alone. Then an injury to Dixie, his beloved stock dog, sends him to the nearest veterinary clinic for help. His crusty old veterinarian friend is away, and in his place is a young doctor in whom Damon initially has no faith. Once he entrusts his canine to Eric Vann's care, however, everything begins to change. And once desire gets a bite on him, what can Damon do but go along for the wild ride?
Caleb Storm is a loner, a rancher whose Native American blood sets him apart from most of his fellows. When a spring blizzard dumps Nick LeGrande and his tiny dog Cedric into Caleb's life, he and his old stock dog Cheyenne hardly know what to make of their visitors. Caleb finds Nick attractive but doubts such a successful and urbane man could have any interest in him. Their dogs, however, hit it off from the start and seem to conspire to get their masters together. Can a pair of canine cupids work the necessary magic?
As he struggles to get back on his feet after the horrors of service as a medic in the Middle East, Roy Dunham tends bar in a quiet club. The sudden entrance of K-9 Officer Samson and his handsome partner Craig Rommel startles Roy. Put off by the cop's attitude until Sam and Craig save him from drug-driven violence, his opinion soon changes. He returns the favor by tending their gunshot wounds. Before long, Roy finds himself hoping the policeman and the dog will become permanent parts of his life. Can Sam be the key to winning his way into Craig Rommel's well-protected heart?
With his life torn apart by tragedy, Garrett finds a true life-saver in the Golden Retriever pup Mandy that he rescues from a shelter. Inspired by the heroic search and rescue teams he sees on TV, he and Mandy also become trained. Their first challenge comes when a series of vicious tornadoes rip through the high plains. Meanwhile, Dan has returned from Iraq shattered by the horrors he witnessed. Like his father and grandfather before him, he takes off on a motorcycle to try to outrun his nightmares. Instead, a storm almost takes his life before a SAR team comes to his rescue. In Mandy and Garrett, will Dan find the unconditional love he needs to become whole again?
