Carrie Moore has returned to Rhode Island to settle her grandmother's estate. Carrie didn't want to be in Rhode Island. What if she were to run into that dirty rat Jack Radigan? The man took her virginity, broke her heart, and as a result exiled her from the state for almost twenty years. Now Texas was her home. She had to get home before she saw Jack again.
Then the call comes from the Heavenly Doggie Kennel to come and get the dog from hell that supposedly belonged to granny.
On the way home the worst happens and Carrie sees blue lights illuminating her rear view mirror. She finds herself handing her paperwork to Handsome Jack himself.
Could things get any worse?
That you have to read for yourself to find out. And it is definitely worth it.
This book is a comedy. It also has a tender love story, both past and present. There is a very special story about friendship and parental love.
This is a short read, approximately 70 pages, but it carries quite a wallop and is worth every penny you pay for it. Add the fact that the proceeds go to a worthy charity then not only do you get to read a good book, but you get to do a good deed while doing it.
This book rates a:
Lady Mischief must make a disclaimer here. She is a stickler about sloppy editing. She even marked down Lucy Monroe (a particular favorite) for no one catching a name change that bothered her throughout the entire book. In this case The Lady has decided to be lenient and judge the book on the merits of the storytelling alone. She decided this for three reasons. The first reason: this is C. D. Yates' first book. Reason two: as far as The Lady knows Blade Publishing is a relatively new company. This is not a good reason for not having good editors. Every college in America graduates thousands of English majors a year. New Paragraphs do not start three of four spaces after the end of the last paragraph they begin two lines below with an indent. Sloppy. Sloppy. Sloppy. Third, and final reason: the proceeds are going to charity. Perhaps corners were cut in order to send more money to save the animals.
Lady Mischief must issue a warning. She will not be this lenient to Blade Publishing and the editors again. A reader should be able to enjoy reading a book, error free.
Remember editors and publishers, readers have chosen to spend their hard earned money on your product rather than someone else's. Respect them and make sure you are giving them their money's worth.
Yours forever between the covers of a book,
Lady Mischief
