When an old rival reappears right before the holidays, a professional
dog trainer must decide if the melting frost between them can make up
for their ruff past, from the USA Today bestselling author of Dog
Friendly.
Chelsea Higgins is doing just fine. She's heading into the holidays at
the helm of a thriving dog training business, and she's got a mellow
senior dog at home to keep her warm at the end of the day. What more
could she need? Enter certified gym bro Andrew Gibson: Chelsea's former
nemesis, and now the newest neighbor in her business complex, who also
wants to expand into the vacant space Chelsea's been eyeing for months.
Who cares if it's the season of joy? Let the turf war begin.
When an unfortunate (and literal) run-in with Andrew's lawless dog
leaves Chelsea with a bum wrist, the two strike a deal: Andrew will help
Chelsea rehab the injury if she'll work with him to train his adorably
uncivilized boxer.
Their typical bickering soon turns to bantering, and Chelsea finds
herself inexplicably drawn to the man she thought she had nothing in
common with. As she gets to know Andrew and his parents, she realizes
she needs to refocus on her own family, especially with a milestone
Christmas speeding toward them. But Chelsea can't help wondering if she
and Andrew are training for keeps, or if this unexpected Christmas gift
is just too good to be true.
