Hello friends!
Can you believe it’s already October?
I can’t wrap my head around the fact that we are quickly approaching the end of 2024.
Do you feel the same?
In the next day or so, we’ll say goodbye to our little hummies.
It’s always lonely when they migrate to a warmer climate, but I can’t say that I blame them!

RELEASING NEXT MONTH!
'Tis the season for second chances and a special puppy.
After the tragic loss of her family, schoolteacher Hannah Simpson hopes coordinating her new town’s holiday festival will keep her mind busy and her past hidden. That is, until she’s forced to work with dog trainer Cody Beckett. As the recently appointed guardian of two of Hannah’s students, Cody sees too much for Hannah to be able to hide her mental health struggles. But as the two of them clash over budgets and event ideas, will a pair of matchmaking twins and a service puppy in training make Hannah and Cody realize a future together is the perfect plan?
Thanks for reading!
