About this listen

It's not long before their pet-centric arrangement sparks a person-centric desire…

Simon Burke has always preferred animals to people. When the countdown to adopting his own dog is unexpectedly put on hold, Simon turns to the PetShare app to find the fluffy TLC he's been missing. Meeting a grumpy children's book illustrator who needs a dog walker isn't easy for the man whose persistent anxiety has colored his whole life, but Jack Matheson's menagerie is just what Simon needs.

Four dogs, three cats and counting. Jack's pack of rescue pets is the only company he needs. But when a bad fall leaves him with a broken leg, Jack is forced to admit he needs help. That the help comes in the form of the most beautiful man he's ever seen is a complicated, glorious surprise.

Being with Jack—talking, waking, making out—is a game changer for Simon. And Simon's company certainly…eases the pain of recovery for Jack. But making a real relationship work once Jack's cast comes off will mean compromise, understanding and lots of love.

Really enjoyed!

I had declined this listen a month ago, but I am SO glad I changed my mind and decided to listen to the sample. I loved it and bought and listened right then. I loved it so much! Will listen to it again and again! Highly recommended!

Really good

I really enjoyed this book!

I read the second book first, so it was nice to come back and learn more about these characters. I don't think it's necessary to read this one first.

I definitely enjoyed the second book a bit more, but this one was a well-crafted book with an engaging plot and a solid narrator who was pleasant to listen to.

I'll read many more Roan Parrish books, I'm sure.

I'm pretty sure I listened to this one slightly sped up. but I don't remember the exact speed.
