Kassandra Haden loves working with kids, her quaint condo on the golf course, and most of all, her dog, Lula. She's happy being alone, having convinced herself that people can't be trusted. But when Lula gets lost, Kassandra's thrown into a different world, one that insists she come out of her shell. As allured as she is frightened, Kassandra can't seem to stay away from the dog shelter, and the devastatingly attractive owner seems to be the cause. Jayden Beaumont isn't used to taking no for an answer. Running a no kill dog shelter isn't easy, but Jayden embraces it. She lives for her work and saves many lives in the process. But in doing so, she's neglected her own, and it's about to cost her big. When Kassandra walks into Jayden's shelter, two very different personalities collide. Can either woman open and trust in order to embrace the life they could have together?
