For Keeps

By Donna Ball

Casey Carmichael is an animal trainer who understands that , in his line of work, a man who is not in control doesn't last long. He rescues animals, he trains them for useful jobs, and then he moves on. He has only one rule: he doesn't get attached. But when he meets Lynn Sanders, he knows he's about to break all the rules... even his own.

Lynn Sanders came to Florida to rest and recover from a traumatic incident in her past. She does not want to work, she does not want to worry, and most of all she does not want to get involved-- with her sister's pet -sitting business, with a cowardly, traumatized dog who needs her almost as much as she needs him, and most of all, with Casey Carmichael and his zoo. But love has a way of changing everything, and this time, it just might be for keeps.
