The Matchmaker - E-book - ePub

Sara loves her quiet life as a small-town librarian, surrounded by the comfort of books-but not dogs. When her father surprises her with a puppy she never asked for, Sara is thrown into a chaotic new world she's not sure she belongs in. The last thing she needs is another dog, especially when the mysterious Jack and his dog, Lassie, arrive in town. Jack is looking for a fresh start, running from a past he'd rather forget.
When he spots a job posting, he meets Sara-a woman with no interest in him or his beloved canine companion. But as their lives begin to intertwine, and Sara is forced to confront the unexpected warmth Lassie brings into her life, she discovers that love can sometimes find us in the places we least expect. Will Sara's heart open to more than just books, or will she let fear keep her from a love that could heal both their pasts? "The sun rose above the town.
No clouds. Crisp morning. The tall buildings and white concrete houses stood like reminders that everything in the town was still the same. The smell of fresh rain in the air. Wet sidewalks and the road ... leading to the ocean and the beach. This was Sara's favorite morning routine-jogging to the beach, then walking on the pier and soaking up the sun." The Matchmaker, page 1
