This was a cute quick read that left me feeling good. I learned what an AGA is.
One thing to note is that my cover has a Great Dane on it, and there aren't any Great Danes in the story. There are like 10 different dog breeds, but no Great Danes. So if you're looking for a Great Dane story, this is not it. ( )

Rachel moves from the big city to a quirky small town after inheriting her aunt’s home and rescue kennel. An uplifting tale of friendship and starting over set in the U.K.

Rachel loses her job, breaks up with her boyfriend, and finds herself the heir to her aunt's house, rescue kennel and her border collie. She is thrown in with an assortment of lovely characters who all come together through the dogs in the kennel. Loved it. A romantic and funny heartwarming story. It is so british and it's about dogs. what's not to love???? ( )
