5.0 out of 5 stars Master storytelling, 27 Mar 2001
I picked up this book cheaply second-hand and boy was I glad I did! Anita Burgh is a master story-teller. She is sometimes looked down on as a "popular" writer, I can't imagine why. Her stories (I have read most of them since this book, she doesn't write quick enough for me) are well-plotted, beautifully written and totally captivating.

She also taught me some good English usage in this book : there is a passage where I girl asks if she CAN use the telephone. The response is "Yes I know you CAN use the telephone, and you MAY". Wow, I never realised before what an important distinction there is between can and may. Amazing what you learn!

I would recommend this book to anyone, not just animal-lovers. Everyone I have lent it to has loved it, and gone on to read more of Anita Burgh.

This book does have a lot about dogs in it, but the plot, characters and wit stand in their own right. Her research is obviously extensive, but doesn't "show" too much - she isn't trying to teach her readers. An excellent book from an excellent writer.

4.0 out of 5 stars Can't put it down, 26 Feb 2007
By Ms. F. E. Brannigan (Newcastle, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was given this book years ago by a friend who'd read it and its gathered dust in my bookcase unread as I thought it looked too "popular" and might be a bit twee but thankfully I resisted putting it in the charity bag as I picked it up on a rainy day and have been hooked for days. Yes it is popular fiction but a real page turner and really good on character, dogs as well as people! A must if you're a dog lover and like a good romance and a bit of suspence and baddy versus goody. The matter of fact descriptions of owners and dogs sharing a bed was so true-to-life I was howling with laughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful combination for animal lovers and romantics alike!, 12 Sep 1999
By A Customer
I was hooked on this book from page one. if you love dogs (especially bulldogs!), suspense and romance then you'll love this. The book not only dealt with romance, the joys of animals, it also dealt with the issues of animal neglect. At times I was crying and at others laughing!!! A brilliant book, written so well that it almost feels real!!! A must buy!!
