Tails of Love

"Man's Best Friend" by Lori Foster It's a rainy, dark night and Erin needs help with the puppy she saved. She reluctantly calls Gary Rutledge. Gary has been waiting for an opportunity to get close to Erin to tell her how he feels, so when fate steps in, in the shape of a needy puppy, Gary jumps at the chance. In "Man's Best Friend" Erin and Gary long for the same thing and a poor forgotten puppy pushes them into each other's arms. "Man's Best Friend" is a quick love story about finally getting what you want. "A Knotty Tail" by Stella Cameron Two dogs, who want to stay in the home they've found with Rose Gibb, team up with a cat to get their owners together. Can this unlikely trio make everyone's dreams come true? "A Knotty Tail" is a cute story told mostly from the animal's perspective. While I would prefer more human interaction, "A Knotty Tail" is a fun and romantic read. "Norah's Arc" by Kate Angell Houdini is one of the many animals in Norah Archer's petting zoo. Contractor Mike Kraft has had it with the trouble-making goat. However, the more trouble Houdini causes, the closer Mike gets to Norah. "Norah's Arc" is more about the goat's antics than Mike and Norah's relationship. Mike is vey sexy and I would love to read more about their ensuing relationship. "The Pursuit of Happiness" by Dianne Castell Rex Barkley has a secret he's sure will drive his girlfriend Jane Louise Garrison away. But maybe Jane does love him enough to see past his differences to find the man behind the dog. "The Pursuit of Happiness" is a southern tale with a paranormal twist about a southern belle with an eccentric family and a very unique boyfriend. The storyline is silly and a little old fashioned, but Jane and Rex do get their happily ever after. "Atticus Saves Lisa" by Ann Christopher Since her brother Keegan's devastating accident, Lisa Evans has denied herself her own life in order to care for him. Cruz Shaw is Keegan's best friend and he's determined to give Lisa back her life...with him in it. "Atticus Saves Lisa" is a heartwarming and sweet story. Cruz is very sexy and very good to Lisa. "Atticus Saves Lisa" has a lot of emotion and a funny little monkey, too. "Rescue Me" Marcia James Adam Baumgardner was young and stupid when he gave his college girlfriend, Claire Mendelsohn, an ultimatum: come with him when he goes off to play pro football, or stay behind. Years later, a surprise meeting proves to Adam that he made the biggest mistake of his life, but has too much time gone by to win her back? "Rescue Me" is a good title for a story about a lost dog and a lost heart. Adam and his unique dog get a second chance because of Claire's big heart. "Lord Hairy" by Donna MacMeans A supposedly wicked hellhound turns Hannah Waverly's life around when his true owner appears and takes her away from her wicked stepmother. "Lord Hairy" is a good story, but too short. Just as things are getting started between Ashton and Hannah, it ends. Some

A wonderful collection of short romance stories in which the love of animals affects the outcome of each tale. I recommend this book for animal lovers to keep in their own collection and to give as a gift to the other animal lovers in their lives. A portion of the proceeds from this anthologie are being donated to an animal welfare organization. This book is edited by the very talented Lori Foster, and it includes her own delightful animal tale.

This is the story of Erin Schuler, a park ranger, who one night while working over time she meets a very unkempt puppy. He is in need of love, a bath, and good home. When her car doesn't work, she has to call her former best friend Gary Rutledge for help. The one man she never wanted to ask for help again. Gary though has been waiting for a second chance with Erin, now that he has it he never intends to let the woman he should have married go. This story was so great I didn't want it to end ever! And the puppy gets a name at the end of the story, I won't spoil it for you and tell you what it is but it's very fitting. This story will make you believe in true love and the power it holds.

This is a great anthology that is all about animal friends bringing human couples together. It's sappy and romantic, most romances are. It's a great summer read and it's for a good cause as all of the authors and agents are donating all of their proceeds to the Animal Adoption Foundation, a no-kill animal shelter in Hamilton, Ohio. There will probably be a story or two that you don't like so well., but I'm sure that you'll find that most of the stories are heart-warming and great reads. Please support this excellent cause by picking up this great little book!

"Tails of Love" is filled with stories about animals bringing human couples together. It's sappy, romantic, sweet, and occasionally sad, but overwhelmingly beautiful! It's unavoidable with anthologies that you'll probably find one or two stories that don't entirely appeal to you, but I was amazed to find only one story I didn't particularly like. The rest grabbed hold of my heart and squeezed, and I ended up sniffling with tears far more often than I'd like to admit! You'll find everything in here from humorous historical romances to whimsical contemporaries, tragic (yet uplifting) modern tales to animal's-eye amusements. The only constant is the presence of animal companions determined to see their humans happy and in love.
