I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Amy Cooper is a romance writer who enjoys watching sports at home, curled up with her kitties. She published her first book in 2014 and has big dreams of making writing her full-time job. She writes contemporary romance books that are sure to bring a smile to her readers’ faces.

“Then she heard a dog bark.”

Kate is working on putting herself and her life back together after getting divorced. Her ex-husband should have been the love of her life, but instead, he ended up break her heart. As Kate slowly starts putting her life back in order, a disruption arrives in the form of a handsome new neighbor. Will this be her second chance at love?

This was a charming romance story. Ben and Kate have more in common than they realize at first, and despite getting off to several rocky starts, they build a friendship.

As Kate and Ben build their friendship, she realizes she could see herself falling in love with this blue eyes author and his sweet pup, Cooper.

After a scary accident that could have been deadly, everything changes between Kate and Ben. She realizes she is comfortable with him. She finds herself missing him when they aren’t together, and she has found a particular fondness for Cooper.

As they spend more time together, their feelings only intensify. Kate finally gets the nerve up to ask Ben to be her date to her best friend’s wedding, and the rest is history.

This is the first book I’ve read by Amy Stephens. Honestly, I chose this title because there was a dog on the cover. I enjoyed this story. A simple, sweet, pure love story.

I found the characters well developed and the plot charming. Kate and Ben have both been through the wringer when it comes to love, and I think it is lovely that they find their second chance within each other. And Cooper makes their relationship perfect.

I enjoyed the build with this story, and as great as steamy scenes can be, it was refreshing to have a romance built solely on genuine feelings and not physical touch.

This is a very cheery, upbeat, festive romance. It’s a quick read, and if you are a dog person, I strongly suggest giving this book a read.
