Saving Sarah by Melissa Storm
5.0
Finch and Sarah are a great couple. Both are hiding from what they see as mistakes in their past. When they first meet they are super hesitant about each other. Neither one willing to really open up about anything. But when Finch's long-lost relative, Eleanor, a resident at the rest home Sarah works at, drags them into a mystery almost as old as she is, they are thrown together trying to fix mistakes from Eleanor's past.
A lot of this story seemed to revolve around past mistakes and guilt, sometimes well-founded, but not always. As Finch and Sarah team up to solve the mystery, they grow close and learn to lean on each other, opening up about their pasts and coming to terms with their so-called mistakes.
Sarah's emotional support dog, Lucky, was present but didn't overtake the story. He was there to do his job and helped to highlight Sarah's progress with her emotional issues. He made a great secondary character that I got to know and love, but I was very glad that he wasn't used in a way that overshadowed the brewing romance and sleuthing.
Saving Sarah was a great introduction to The Gold Coast Retrievers series, and I look forward to seeing more of the Retrievers and their people.
*I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this book*
