Talk Doggy To Me

By Maggie Shayne

A hot detective used to female attention...
Jay Harris has a tender side too, and he's a top-notch detective. Those qualities are more important now than ever before, with a serial rapist stalking the women of his town.

A bristly veterinarian who prefers animals to people...
She's more interested in his dog's good looks than the detective's. And she has good reason for those feelings. She also has a secret that could ruin her practice, should it get out. A secret she's vowed not to share, no matter what.

She can talk to animals...
Well, not talk, precisely. She feels them. There's a connection. Should this talent of hers get out, it could label her delusional, ruin her reputation and shatter her life.

The only witness who can ID the rapist... is a dog.
Now, Macy's secret is in danger because she has no choice but to share it. She must find a way to make the smoking hot detective believe her. But there's more danger than she knows, as the criminal draws near, seeking to silence her and her gift, for good.
