Redwood County Animal Shelter manager Tyson Haines is absolutely committed to the pets under his care. Despite having limited resources and staff, his boundless compassion and patience make him damn good at his job. But when the county decides to drastically cut the shelter's funding, the lives of his beloved animals hang in the balance. Tyson is ready to do whatever it takes to save his shelter and the animals he loves.
Overcoming the legacy of his past...
Software engineer Jack Keppel took the plunge and adopted a child from the foster care system. Seven-year-old Mia is a sweet girl, perceptive and smart. But she's old enough to know she can't just trust anyone, and Jack struggles to connect with her. Remembering his childhood dog, he decides to take her to adopt her own, determined to give her the love he never received from his own parents. But when they arrive at the shelter, Jack meets handsome, easygoing Tyson, unearthing feelings he thought he'd buried—feelings of being attracted to men.
Finding love in the most unlikely places...
Jack finds himself returning to the shelter again and again just to see Tyson, asking for advice and signing up for obedience classes. When he learns about the budget cuts, he finds that he's invested in both the shelter and the passionate man who runs it. But can Jack overcome the legacy of his parents' homophobia? And can Tyson find a way to save the lives of the shelter pets?
