In Dog We Trust by Beth Kendrick

4.0

I truly enjoyed this book—it was very light, with interesting characters, great dialogue and a believable romance. The book is set in the same fictional seaside town where the author has set several other books, but it works perfectly as a stand-alone. In fact, I have not read any of those other books, and that did not interfere with my enjoyment of the story at all. The book begins with the main character, Jocelyn, saving a dog from being hit by a car. Before she knows it, Jocelyn is romantically involved with the driver of the car that almost hit the dog, and also is roped into becoming a paid dog-walker for the dog’s curmudgeon owner, Mr. Allardyce. Things get even more interesting when Mr. Allardyce dies and leaves his estate in trust for his dogs, with Jocelyn as the trustee and guardian. It sounds like a made for TV movie when I describe it, but it was undeniably fun.
