Kitty's Book Spot!

This is book # 2 in the Foster Puppies series.  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding and enjoyment, I always recommend readers get through the series in order. Ludlow meets Richard in a local watering hole.  He is really quote obnoxious, and a bit full of himself.  The problem is that Ludlow is attracted despite all this. Richard is a free spirit who travels around doing as he pleases.  To someone like Ludlow, this seems like a homeless man grasping at things.  The sparks fly - but there is a touch of discomfort as well. I had a hard time getting into this story.  I really did not understand the attraction, and if the writer wasn't so good, I never would have finished the book.  They both have much to learn if they really want to find a future together.  I give this story a 2/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This ARC copy was given in return for an honest review only.

Tynan finds a lost puppy and recruits Harley to help.  Turns out the puppy is going to be a mom.  Harley and Tynan end up fostering the mom and the pups until they can be given up for adoption. Harley can hardly believe his luck!  Meeting a guy who is not only good looking, but loves animals too.  Can they have enough in common to make a love connection? This is such a sweet story.  The puppies are a big part of it and it makes for some genuinely cute moments.  The characters seem to need one another and the book was a joy to read.  I give this story a 3/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This ARC copy was given in exchange for an honest review only.
