It’s so good to see the boys from Hairy Harry’s Car Seat back again and getting a new dog. Loved seeing Will, Lawrence, and Bob from Bob, Destroyer of Leads again.Most of this book is sweet and gentle as we see Evan and Peter settling in to life together and managing to share Peter’s kids with his ex-wife. The reality of raising a puppy takes over the household as Hazel escapes the confines of the kitchen and inserts herself in their bed. The fanged boot, which I understand is a true story, is very funny. (Beware befriending another author – the stories you tell over morning coffee may show up where you least expect them.) Gentle Will and dominating Lawrence appear with Bob to show even the famous dog trainer still can’t get Bob to behave.But things turn dark and scary with something secret going on with Peter’s ex-wife and her abusive boyfriend. Can Peter trust that the kids are safe in a house with Roy? Then there is the mysterious and highly dangerous neighbor Jesse and his soon-to-be left-behind-again boyfriend Dan. Ms Brown! You cannot do this to me, uh us! Introduce a man who won’t tell what he does for a living, has a boyfriend but disappears for months at a time, and then… well, I can’t say more without making it a spoiler. Suffice to say I, uh, we, demand Jesse’s story! OK, I’ll say it nicer… please?This is my favorite of the Lyon Road Vet series and it takes the good vet and his partner down a path they didn’t see coming. Great series, great book! Well done, Ms Brown!
