Third and Long - Paperback

by Rebecca Minelga (Author)

A sweet, sports romance where love is a four-legged word.

Trauma survivor, Abby Barclay, finds purpose in her life with her therapy dog, Gen, helping terminally ill children and their families deal with pain and loss. When a playground accident brings nine-year-old Dylan into her life, even Abby is surprised at the depth of the bond between the boy and her dog. Her relationship with him--as well as with his divorced father, Scott--soon grows into something beyond professional.

Threatened by Abby and Gen's close relationship with Dylan, Scott's ex-wife reopens their custody arrangement, forcing Scott to decide between his son and the woman he loves. To make matters worse, Gen receives a devastating prognosis.

As Abby weighs losing Scott, Dylan, and her beloved dog, she must decide whether loving anyone is worth the risk and whether she can find the courage to go on even if she loses everything.

Special Edition now includes three additional bonus scenes and a sneak peek at False Start, Book 2 of Paw Prints on My Heart.
