Schnickelfritz in Love — Deirdre O'Dare

Industrial electrician Jake Rasmussen has traveled too much to make a lot of friends, but he finally gave in to impulse and acquired Snick, a feisty rescued mini-schnauzer. Detective Boz Corwin similarly obtained Athena, a retired racing greyhound and a total lady.

Both men adore their canine partners, but when the pets meet at the dog park and develop an instant love affair, all hell breaks loose between Jake and Boz, opposites in many ways.

Meanwhile, valuable material and components are vanishing from the construction site of a new medical complex where Jake is working. Boz is assigned to the case, and the two must work together. Can they make this and much more work between them?

Only their faithful canine companions know for sure ...
