Jacqui Lane has written a wonderful cozy mystery. I was pulled in from the first page. This story has it all - romance, humor, cute animals, and murder. Cara Rogers needs to reclaim her life. She came to Middleburg to work for her Aunt Marian after she lost her veterinary license and her money. When she finds her aunt's body, her life changes yet again. Detective Cole Sampson arrives to investigate and sparks fly. She is attracted as is he but murder stands between them. Since she is a suspect, Cara begins to investigate. Will she be successful in her quest for justice? The characters are charming, humorous and feisty. Watching Cara and Cole dance around their attraction is so romantic. The other characters added to the suspense. They provided potential motives that kept me guessing to the very end. I loved Cara's mother, Emma. What a woman! The small town atmosphere and the doggie spa, La Maison de Chien, provided the perfect background for this mystery. The story was fast-paced and enjoyable. A perfect summertime treat. I loved it!
