Gwen Benedetti has spent most of her life being a disappointment to her wealthy parents, who don’t understand why she has to be a professional dog walker and pet sitter when, in their mind, she could be so much more. Gwen loves her job working with animals, her small New Orleans apartment, and the life she’s made for herself. The only thing she’s missing is someone at her side to share that life with.
Juliet Francis is a corporate trainer at Southern Roastery, a growing coffee chain, and when an opportunity to take on a little extra work comes with a possible future promotion, she grabs it. The only downside is that it comes with a lot of travel, and that means leaving her dog at home alone.
When Juliet requests Gwen’s dog-walking and pet-sitting services, she thinks she’s only getting someone to take care of her dog, but as they continue to spend time together, she discovers she might get a lot more than that.
