The Dog Handler

Wells Carruthers has a shipping fortune, a dishonorable-looking discharge, and a court order to serve two hundred hours at a nonprofit that pairs retired military dogs with veterans. Joss Ferreira has a kennel full of unadoptable Malinois, a maxed-out credit card, and no patience for men who think money is a verb. She hands him a mop. He offers to buy the whole property. It goes downhill from there, and then it doesn't. Because there's a dog in the last run who won't eat for anyone, and Wells is the only person who knows why. A grumpy-sunshine billionaire military romance about grief with four legs, a kennel about to lose its lease, and a man learning that the only thing he can't buy is the right to be needed.
