Book Description

May 2000
They tried to resist each other, but it was impossible. Soon their passions were unleashed, and their self-control went to the dogs . . .

FBI agent Jake Donnelly is not the kind of man who names a dog "Muffin." Especially not a jowly bulldog. But now Jake's Aunt Sophie has left him her beloved Muffin, along with a sizable inheritance that has some strings attached. Jake and Muffin have to attend a two-week therapy course designed to work out any bonding issues they may have.

Enter Leanne Crosby, a pet shrink and owner of a luxury pet spa complete with private counseling sessions, a doggie dating service, and plenty of quirky advice on proper pet parenting.

When the gorgeous and brilliant Dr. Crosby sets out to help Jake and Muffin become soulmates, it soon becomes obvious that she and Jake are falling in puppy love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Jensen Jewel! 12 Sep 2002
By Deborah MacGillivray HALL OF FAME VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
I loved 'Stuck With You' and this is just as enjoyable. Jake Donnelly's favourite aunt died and leaves her entire fortune to her pet Bulldog "muffin". Jake could careless, except for the Summer cottage where he has a few of his happier childhood memories. When he finds out if he does not take Muffin, it will go to the owner of Hound Dog Hotel, Leanne Crosby, the fur hits the fan. She runs a doggie/owner summer vacation spa and Jake, an FBI agent, decides he is going to expose her "racket". Toss in the usual odd ball Jensen characters, some mobsters wanting to bump Jake off....

Well, you have another hilarious, utterly charming Jensen Jewell. Keep 'em coming, Trish!...

3.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable 23 Sep 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the third Trish Jenson book I have read and I have enjoyed them all (others: The harder they fall and Stuck with you). This book is not as funny as the previous two i have read but there is a little more substance to the story line. It's lighthearted and well written which just makes for easy and enjoyable reading when I have some precious spare time. Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Move over, Fox Mulder. Agent Donnelly is here. 13 July 2000
By Barbara O'Neill - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
In Trish Jensen's latest, "Against His Will," we have the unlikely Combination of Jake Donnelly, FBI Agent, a bulldog named Muffin, Bob and Scooter (the T-Shirt guinea pigs-trust me, you have to read the story to get the scoop on these two), and a lovely doggie psychologist, LeAnne Crosby.

Tough Fibbie that he is, Jake wants nothing to do with Muffin until he finds out his beloved Aunt Sophie has tied his inheritance to his care of the dog, and that in the event of his default, all reverts to the lovely LeAnne. Quickly, we find out why Jake is so emotional about one of Aunt Sophie's properties. He's also suspicious about LeAnne's occupation and her up-scale resort for humans and their canine owner. Certain that she's fleecing the unsuspecting, he decides to play along with the terms of the will if only to debunk the doggie shrink. What evolves is one of the most entertaining stories I've read in a long time as Jake and LeAnne at first circle each other warily and then break down and admit their attraction for each other.

The book had me laughing and, in the end, crying. It was one of those books I wanted to go on for another 300 pages or so *just* so it wouldn't end. My heart went out to Jake and how important his Aunt Sophie and Uncle George were to him. And I loved LeAnne for her ability to get 'close' to him and help him.

I don't know of a better way to spend a couple of summer days, and if Amazon would let me, I'd give "Against His Will" a 6-star rating. I can't recommend this one highly enough and I'm looking forward to Ms.Jensen's next release.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trish's writing is so good... 2 May 2000
By Ed Williams - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
...it's changed my behavorial habits. Normally, as a member of the Brotherhood, I wouldn't be caught dead reading romantic fiction. Because Trish is so talented, and has a way of making these stories both believable and funny, I now find myself openly seeking her work out in the bookstores I patronize.

Buy this book - the premise is creative, the characters believable, and you'll understand why Trish is the Brotherhood's favorite (and only recommended) romantic fiction author. She must have some Southern blood in her somewhere....

5.0 out of 5 stars Trish Jensen at her hilarious and heartzinging best! 2 May 2000
By Ross Bennett - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Special Agent Jake Donnelly isn't having the best year. His dear Aunt Sophie, with whom Jake had spent his wonderful childhood summers, has passed away...and left him a most peculiar bequest: guardianship of her beloved bulldog, Muffin. Her very WEALTHY bulldog Muffin. So when man and mutt meet face to face and it isn't love at first sight, what's a Special Agent to do? Find LeAnne Crosby, that's what!--even if it doesn't sound like a great idea at first.

Trish Jensen weaves a rompingly-funny, heart-tugging tail [er...tale] of romance and laughter as we follow Jake Donnelly through the peaks and pitfalls of pet parenting. With the gorgeous and brilliant Dr. Crosby to help him fall for man's best friend, and with hit-man Jimmy 'The Bunny' on his tail, Jake Donnelly is in for quite a vacation indeed!

Fetch this book home and curl up on the furniture with it. It's absolutely a must read!
