Fate pulled her to Dorset Hills for love once before. Will the second time reveal her true calling?

Twelve years ago, Isla McInnis followed a hunch to Dorset Hills in search of the perfect rescue dog. She found the dog... but the perfect man slipped through her fingers.

Ever since, she's longed to come back to this fairy-tale town - the town she practically created with an article she wrote praising Dorset Hills as the best place on earth for dogs and dog lovers.

Returning at last, Isla finds Dorset Hills isn't quite as sweet as she remembers. In the past year, a new mayor has corrupted her vision and turned the place into a circus. Now he's collecting puppies from premier breeders for an illicit project, and somehow evading the Rescue Mafia.

Isla's plan to oust the mayor turns into a clever game of political cat and mouse. To solve the mystery of the purloined puppies, she'll need to locate the new dog of her dreams as well as reconnect with a man whose heart whose heart she broke all those years ago.

The cards may be stacked against Isla, but the mayor has one heck of a fight on his hands in this hilarious and heartwarming Season Finale.

If you love dogs, romance, small town capers and cozy mysteries, you will adore this book.
