Publisher Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Part of Your World comes a romantic comedy full of "fierce humor and fiercer heart" about how one adorable puppy brings together two perfect strangers (Casey McQuiston, NYT bestselling author of Red, White & Royal Blue). Artist Sloan Monroe just can't seem to get her life on track. But one trouble-making pup who randomly jumps into her car with a "take me home" look in his eyes is about to change everything. With Tucker by her side, Sloan finally starts to feel more like herself. Then, after weeks of unanswered texts, Tucker's owner reaches out. He's a musician on tour in Australia. And bottom line: He wants Tucker back. Well, Sloan's not about to give up her dog without a fight. But what if this Jason guy really loves Tucker? As their flirty texts turn into long calls, Sloan can't deny a connection. Jason is hot and nice and funny. There's no telling what could happen when they meet in person. The question is: With his music career on the rise, how long will Jason really stick around? And is it possible for Sloan to survive another heartbreak?

Customer Reviews
The Love story I Didn’t know I needed
Marriage can be monotonous and dating leaves your mind the second you raise a family. This book was such a good read, it had me changing the way I saw my husband and remembering that love we also have for each other. It made me want to open up and be a better lover to my husband, to remember that life is short and what if I woke up one day to mourn his death? Never take a day for granted and love what is right in front of you no matter the consequence.
Wasn’t Expecting Much
What the heck did I just read? I felt like I signed up for a cute lil meet-cute romcom, but THAT ISH had me in a choke-hold and threw me around the room. I thought I had the ending figured out n was waiting but then BAM they added a whole other diversion to have them ripped apart, tortured, and and then brought back together in the most dramatic way possible. Such a fan-gurl dreeeam moment. I will hopefully be dreaming about this tonight. That was so beautiful and I wasn’t expecting much.
Omg LOVED
Seriously….read this in like a day. I loved, loved, loved this story. How could you not just fall in love with Jason. Everything was beautiful and believable.
