When two childhood friends return home after their sports careers don't go as planned, a puppy just may give them a second chance at happiness together.
She’s always been the girl with the plan . . . until the plan crashed big time
Kendall Walsh has exactly one second to save a fancy, five-tiered wedding cake and any possibility of being a wedding planner—not to mention her family’s struggling ski resort. All because of one very cute, very furry, golden menace of a retriever who has a serious thing for butter chiffon icing. Which is exactly when Olympic skier Brody James shows up and saves the day . . . and the cake.
Brody makes Kendall feel about a million indecipherable things. He’s her brother’s bestie. Her first crush. And a ridiculously popular Olympic hero, which only reminds her of her own failed Olympic dreams. What Brody isn’t telling her is that he’s walked away from it all. The fame. The sponsorships. The celebrity girlfriend. Now he and Kendall are both lost somewhere between their past and a future they can’t yet see. But four weddings, one mischievous puppy, and a few steamy kisses later, these two might just realize that they are both exactly where they need to be…with each other.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Shane serves up a wintery treat with this charming contemporary, the fifth in her Pine Hollow series (after Pride and Puppies). After a serious crash ends onetime Olympic hopeful Kendall Walsh's skiing career, she embarks on a new life as a wedding planner, hoping to convince her family that their struggling ski resort in Pine Hollow, Vt., would be a perfect wedding venue. Her first wedding at the resort gets off to a rough start, however, when the rambunctious golden retriever puppy she's fostering, "an adorable furry wrecking ball," manages to get loose and makes a beeline for the wedding cake. Thankfully, Kendall's longtime crush, world-class skier Brody James, who is unexpectedly back in town, grabs the dog and saves the cake. Unknown to the public, Brody is considering hanging up his skis, rattled by the news that his fiercest professional rival has killed himself. He takes a part-time job helping Kendall remodel the resort in time for his sister's wedding. As they work together, they inevitably grow closer—but they've both got big choices to make about their futures. Shane delivers both humor (thanks to the antics of a misbehaving puppy) and pathos against the backdrop of a winter wonderland. Dog lovers will lap up this romance—as will Shane's many fans.
