Someone to Love

Perfect for fans of Lucy Dillon & Lucy Diamond. If you loved Marley & Me, you'll love this uplifting, feel-good read.

A life-changing encounter . . . becomes a life-affirming friendship

Unjustly fired from her dream job in Silicon Valley, level-headed Elizabeth Barnes has escaped to England with her tail between her legs.

There to settle some family matters, Elizabeth is surprised when she stumbles upon an abandoned puppy and realises her brief trip might just turn into an extended stay. For the first time in her life, she feels needed by another living creature and finds she needs her new furry friend just as much.

But will long-kept family secrets risk the new life and love she's found?

In this delightful shaggy tale, rescue magic will happen on both ends of the lead . . .
