HTML:In Sue Pethick's witty and heartwarming debut novel, a sweet dog in need of an owner brings together the perfect candidates... Todd Dwyer, a successful app designer, wasn't planning to adopt a dog, but when his Uncle Bertie dies and leaves his little mutt Archie homeless, Todd can't help welcoming the pooch home. Archie could charm the marrow out of a bone, but Todd's girlfriend Gwen is less than impressed with the instant bond the fluffy white ball of fur makes with her boyfriend. When things go awry the first night, she insists that Todd give Archie to his sister, Claire, whose rural home is a day's drive away. Todd and Archie hit the road, but circumstances compel them to make a detour to a quaint hotel run by Todd's childhood friend, Emma Carlisle. As it happens, the hotel is hosting a colorful group of ghost hunters in town for a paranormal conference, and when Archie starts howling into the air vent, it isn't long before their road trip turns bumpier than an unpaved country lane. But with Archie's unerring canine instincts and loyal heart, he may help Todd and Emma see the happiness that's waiting just under their noses . . . Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Emma doesn't seem to be a very good business woman. I suspected someone was stealing from her or undermining her long before anyone in the book seemed to (except Clifton, but he had his reasons). She has ideas but all of them are going to cost her more money--money she doesn't have--rather than trying to work out a new theme idea with what she's already got. I kind of felt like she doesn't see the forest for the trees.
Archie is a houdini--he manages to escape from lots of places throughout the book--a garage, a car, locked rooms, a cottage. He also has been taught tricks by Todd's uncle. He seems like a cute, loving dog, but I don't think I could handle the constant escaping.
It's a cute story, but it's obvious from the get-go that Todd and Gwen don't suit each other and as a reader, you kind of figure that they're not going to make it to the altar with each other. ( )
