About the book:
The holidays are the
perfect time for ex-lovers to get a second chance at love! This sensual
contemporary romance novella is the second in the dog-lovers' "Klein's
K-9s" series, featuring a service dog training facility, its skilled
staff, and its compassionate volunteers.
Celebrity photographer
"Jax" Jackson volunteers to shoot the Klein's K-9s annual fundraising
calendar. His agenda: Convince past love and calendar coordinator Amy Walters
to give him a another try.
Producing the
dog-themed "12 Days of Christmas" calendar includes dodging
dive-bombing birds, tackling runaway pigs, and handling 78 dogs who'd rather
play than pose. In the midst of the chaos, will the reunited lovers find their
happily ever after?

The review --
When you begin reading
this book, you're immediately left wondering what the heck Jax did, because Amy
seems to hate him, and the fun doesn't stop. The chapter titles are simply
delightful and add to the reading fun. What can I say …. this is simply a wonderful
book.
The whole story of
them shooting the calendar, and him trying to get back in her good graces, and
wrangling the dogs, and trying to get their shots. It's all just wonderful. I
truly loved this book, and it was such a fun read.
