My Review: 4 stars
First off, I never read any
of Jenn McKinlay’s books and romance books aren’t exactly a favorite of mine,
though I do enjoying the good ones from time to time. Ms. MicKinlay has gained
a new fan. This is a cute, warm and funny story you’ll be sure to remember. If
not for the characters but for a stray puppy Gavin rescues and is named Tulip.
I enjoyed this cute romance novel with a twist of puppy love in it. Back home
for two weeks as maid of honor in her best friend Emma's wedding. Emma just
happen to be the older sister to Gavin, with whom Mac has a bit of a secret. I
love the setting on the Maine coast, one of my favorite places to visit,
despite the cold.
The characters are well developed and the
story has several plot twists. I confess to not being a big fan of romance, but
those that I enjoy, I truly do so and have no hesitation in recommending. Such
is the case with About a Dog. I enjoyed the friendship, camaraderie, humor, the
aunts, and of course, the stray pup named Tulip! If you don’t love anything
else about this book, you can’t help but fall in love with Tulip, the stray
dog.
