A Boy and His Dog

By: Chloe Holiday

Narrated by: Serafina Dare

If Dr. Hope Hernandez were any more exhausted, she'd be the one on the gurney. Her drive for perfection leaves her scrambling to juggle an insane ER schedule, studying for boards, and her boyfriend—whoops! Ex-boyfriend.

Fine. One less thing demanding her attention. Hope buries her pain in work. The truth is she’d get more affection from a dog, with less risk to her heart. Safe and uncomplicated. The second she sees the forlorn, retired military K9, Hope falls hard: He's sad and alone, just like her. They head to Colorado, aiming for a fresh start—if she can score the coveted ER job. Yet when a scorching hot veteran shows up to lay claim to her dog, he disrupts her careful plan. He's anything but safe—he’s dynamite. And he's oh, so wrong if he thinks he can charm Hope into giving up her loyal companion.

Bomb disposal technician Grant Calloway's whole life blows up after an IED detonates at a Kosovo parade. He and his working dog, Mojo, save hundreds with their off-duty heroism, but reality bites hard: Mired in red tape, then bounced out of the Army for hearing loss, Grant's blindsided when Mojo's adopted out by a civilian who won't understand the needs of a military-trained dog. Grant's best friend deserves better. Grant turns his back on a lucrative job and instead hits the road for Colorado to track down his dog.

He thought finding Mojo would be the hardest part, but the woman who took him won't listen to reason, and Grant's charm has no effect. Refusing to be diverted by her big brown eyes and gorgeous smile, Grant lays siege to reacquire Mojo—by whatever means necessary.

A Boy and His Dog is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers medical/military romance. It contains profanity and sex scenes.

It could have been better

I enjoyed the story but due to the narrator’s voice I almost thought it was creepy. The narrator didn’t sound old enough to have graduated from college much less medical school. Then the constant calling her pretty girl added to the creepy feeling. I would have given a higher rating had i read the book instead of listening to it. I also had to speed it up as the pace was too slow. Of course this is just my opinion I’m sure some people will love it. I doubt I read any of the other books in the series.
