Cora Bellamy is a woman who thrives on organization. She’s successfully run her own dog training business for years, perfectly content with her beloved rescue pitbull as the main man in her life. She’s given everything to her business, and her lack of social life (or slobber-free clothes) has been completely worth it.

But all that changes when she meets Charlie Gill, the hottest client she’s ever had. The only problem? Charlie’s taken. Luckily, Cora has a new friend—the sweet, lovably geeky Eli Crawford. More loyal than a retriever, he’s always there to help Cora with her problems, including her love life. That’s why she’s shocked to realize that even as things start heating up with Charlie, there might just be a more-than-friends spark between her and Eli, too.

As Cora’s life gets more tangled up than a dogwalker’s leashes—and as she prepares to audition for a dog-training TV show that may irrevocably change her entire life—she has to figure things out before it all goes straight to the dogs.

 


A cute look at the life of a dog lover, Life on the Leash was just that, cute. Cora has a self-made dog empire and a heart of gold.  As she maneuvers her way through life she finds that her four legged friends are only part of her life story.

Life on the Leash was a very slow moving read. For the dog lover you will find enjoyable moments of puppy bliss but it wasn’t until about 75% in that we get to the meat of the story.  Her “love triangle” was almost non exist as it took the backseat to her furry friends.  I loved the ending.  That was what redeemed the story for me.  I would have loved to see more development between her male counter parts.  With several storylines floating around it was hard to become vested in just one.  The book was written well and I would take a second chance on this author.
