A witty, heart-warming tale about a woman's best friend, you'll love it! Nick Spalding

"A love story that honestly will just make you cheer... I loved it." Miranda Dickinson

When your dog plays cupid... what could possibly go wrong? Loyal rescue pug Doug wants his adoring owner Julie to find unconditional love and happiness - and he knows she won't find either in the arms of her married boss, Luke. Doug is terrified that Julie will become a lonely cat-lover if she stays single too long, but he can't let her fall for any more of Luke's empty promises. Julie needs to move on - and Doug is convinced that Tom, a newly divorced V-E-T, is perfect for her (despite his questionable occupation). There's just one problem: Julie and Tom can't stand each other. Doug doesn't quite understand the quirks and complexities of human relationships, but he won't let that get in the way of his mission to bring Tom and Julie together. After all, being a 'rescue works both ways... Readers LOVE Pug Actually!
