- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I picked this up off the library sale shelf because I was intrigued by the title. I did not read the first book in the series ("Lawyer for the Dog") so it can be read as a stand-alone, though as always, there may be things about the characters's backgrounds that you would better understand if you read the series in order. I'm not quite sure how I'd categorize this book if I needed to. It's not courtroom fiction like Grisham. It is legal fiction in the sense that Sally Banyard is tasked with fulfilling the requirements of a trust set up to care for the cat, Beatrice. Though there are relationships, it's not really a romance: Sally seems incapable of committing to a mature relationship (which makes me angry that she's apparently sleeping with Tony). Though, given that most of the marriages we hear about in this book are/were not happy ones, it doesn't sound like she has a good role model for marriage. (her mother and father apparently had marital problems because her mother keeps saying she should have "married Ed Strand", Lila's marriage seemed more one to please her parents and/or keep the land she loved though her relationship with Simon might have been love, Gail's in an abusive relationship though they aren't married, Gina's beau is convinced he needs a prenup because women always betray him, Mandy's pretty much dismissed the boy who got her pregnant from her life other than wanting him to contribute money toward their child's upbringing...)Sally does finally commit to adopting the dog Tony has been after her to adopt. Maybe that is a start toward progress in her character.Sally interviews several people, some identified by Lila and some not, for the position as Beatrice's caregiver. I didn't guess correctly who she chose--I was expecting her to pick a different character than she did--though the character I expected her to pick does seem like he might get to stay involved with the house and Beatrice, just in a different way that I expected.
