Purchase options and add-ons
Welcome to the heartwarming world of Waterford Farm, where love, laughter, family, friends—and rescue dogs—reign supreme.
In the quaint town of Bitter Bark, North Carolina, dog whisperer Shane Kilcannon rarely misses when he sets his sights on a lady. But when he strikes out with a captivating stranger, Shane is left snarling like one of his precious pitbulls. His father’s plan for Shane to collaborate with that same woman on a big town project might give him a second chance, but it will take every trick he knows to get Chloe Somerset’s attention.
A visionary known for her ability to put small towns on the map, Chloe is determined to win over the locals and get support for some groundbreaking tourism plans. Beloved home town hero Shane Kilcannon can help her…but only if she will provide a temporary home to a rambunctious and affectionate pittie. Not anyone’s idea of a “dog person,” Chloe hesitantly opens her home—and heart—to a deeply misunderstood dog…and his equally misunderstood master. But when Chloe’s plans backfire and literally end up in a garbage dump, she has to fight for the dog, the town, and the man she loves…or lose them all forever.
The Dogfather Series – Family drama and sweet romances set at a dog refuge in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Determined that all of his adult children find forever love after he loses his wife of many years, the man they call “The Dogfather” sets out to play matchmaker. He’ll pull a few strings and make a few deals and enlist the help of some incredible dogs all to make sure there are fairy tail romances with happy endings for the entire Kilcannon clan.

Chloe had an unusual upbringing. As an adult she has very strict rules and regimens for her life that she rarely, if ever, deviates from. Coming to Bitter Bark, North Carolina to help her aunt, the mayor of this small town, with tourism ideas to bring in more revenue to the town will have life changing effects on many people… especially Chloe. She will step outside of her comfort zone in so many, wonderful ways – and discover a life that she never envisioned for herself through the eyes of one sexy dog whisperer – and one adorable, if constantly giving sloppy kisses, dog.
Shane never, ever intends to settle down to the “married bliss” that so many people believe is a natural state. No. He’s seen firsthand what losing the love of someone’s life does and he wants no part of that. Oh, he’s not against having a light hearted fling, but always with an expiration date. Always. Until he met Chloe, an uptight, rules driven non-dog lover who captures his interest. So she has issues and barriers – he’s the man to help her break them down and have some fun. Short-term romance, yeah, he can do that. But what happens when that short-term starts to feel like a much longer wished for commitment – he can run or face his demons, especially if he wants to keep this woman in his life.
New Leash on Life brought me tears, laughter, contentment and a very enjoyable visit to this small town community. I loved Shane and his wacky, crazy, close knit family. And we meet up with everyone a little bit in his story. Chloe is a wounded soul who need desperately to open up and let the past go. Watching her come alive was pure enjoyment. And Daisy. Oh, that lovable pup will be changing some minds about her breed. Remember, it’s how the dog is trained that makes them “bad”, not the breed. A lesson we should all learn.
So, I loved it. I recommend it. And I’m going to dive into the next story as soon as I can. If you love realistic romances with believable plots and characters then New Leash on Life and The Dogfather series is a perfect match for you.
His life starts to make a change when he meets the young woman his small town hires to come up with a plan to encourage visitors to spend their vacation time and money in Bitter Bark. At first he is sure he can encourage the young woman to just about give him anything he wants. However, she has a few issues and it is just not that easy to give in to the sexy dog trainer. Shane has a few issues of his own. He has never recovered from the loss of his mother. It has been a few years since his mom died of a heart attack at 55 but he is still angry and has a few misconceptions on why his dad encourages his kids to find love and marry when he did that and then suffered such a tragic loss.
There is a bit of drama as Chloe tries to save the town and keep her interest in the dog trainer in separate compartments. There are people in town that object to change no matter what and they are at work trying to sabbatoge Chloe's plans to save the town. It is a very good read. I found it to be entertaining, a little bit of a tear jerker in a few places (no, none of the dogs die) and a good love story. I definitely recommend it as a fun, light-hearted read. There are a few sexy scenes and you must love dogs!! It is a good read.
I was not paid for this review. I am not a writer nor do I know one. I am not kin to this author. i am a reader and this is my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. 7/8/18
