Description:
Standing between Stephanie and her dream is one hundred pounds of lovable
trouble.
It should have been so simple for Stephanie Pink:
Meet up with Agnes Wharton in a small town in California, retrieve the
reclusive author’s valuable new manuscript, and be promoted to a full-fledged
literary agent.
But Agnes’s canine companion, Sweetness, decides
to make a break for it before Stephanie can claim her prize. Until Agnes has
Sweetness safely back at home in Eagle Cliff, Washington, Stephanie will never
set eyes on the manuscript she needs to make her dreams come true.
When Stephanie tracks the runaway mutt to a
campground, she meets Rhett Hastings—a man also on the run from a different
life and a costly mistake. Rhett agrees to help Stephanie search for the
missing dog…thus launching a surprising string of adventures and misadventures.
Once Sweetness gets added to the mix, it’s a
recipe for love and loss, merriment and mayhem, fun and faith in the backwoods
of the Pacific Northwest.
My
Review:
Fetching Sweetness is a pure delight to read. I had so much fun following the adventures of Sweetness, a fun loving, trouble-causing, (innocently, mind you) huggable dog and a few other critters they pick up along the way. His care-taker and literary agent want-to-be, Stephanie, and Rhett—who is trying to sort out his life—are from two different realms which adds the perfect amount of friction and misunderstanding. Fetching Sweetness isn't just a fun, fluffy read. There is heartbreak, humility, encouragement, joy, and growth in the spiritual journeys the characters follow. I highly recommend this sweet story. You'll find lots of surprises and laugh out loud moments.
