Paws for Love: A Novel for Dog Lovers

By Dana Mentink

The Only Thing Sweet About Jellybean Is His Name

Jellybean the terrier is about to unleash some serious mayhem on the unsuspecting town of Albatross.

There's no quiet on the set when over-the-hill screen star Lawrence Tucker brings his naughty terrier, Jellybean, on location to the beachside town of Albatross, California. When Jellybean develops a rapport with Tucker's violin tutor, the painfully shy, socially awkward Misty Agnelli, her arm is twisted into minding the mischievous animal. Trailing Jellybean leads Misty into the candy store of Bill Woodson, a handsome chocolatier with a painful secret and a three-year-old niece to raise.

Misty must deal with the unstable Tucker, a temperamental Jellybean, her budding feelings for the mysterious Bill, and the high-pressure atmosphere on the set. Though she wants nothing more than to flee, how can she tell her Grandma, Lawrence Tucker's biggest fan, that she abandoned the star and his dog?

It's actors, animals, and antics galore when Jellybean gives his own heartwarming performance.

Reviews for Paws for Love

[squiresj_1 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book is a story about Jellybean and all the people struggling with problems. His antics draw people together and bring to light many situations. The Chocolate Shop chocolates sound divine. Troubles are all through story so life experiences people deal with just like us. How God helps others help one another "Let their light shine" is all through story. A dog no one owns but his love unique for those he lets in. As a dog owner, Jellybean like most dogs. They love but not controlled. Misty overcomes her desire to hide to help out the town. Just the book I needed right now. It was hard to lay down. I recommend you read all Dana's books. All will uplift and encourage you.
