A Christmas Tail




Blurb: Three months after the conclusion of DOG DAYS, Jessica Sheldon and her white German shepherd Zoe have moved in with Hot Max...and his cat, Groucho. When Groucho destroys the Christmas ham and frames Zoe for it, she knows it means war. As the dog and cat do battle, Jessica struggles to fit in with Hot Max's family during a week filled with holiday gatherings. All she has for family is a mother she's just met. Will it take more than that to make Max's parents like her?

My Review: This is an absolutely adorable Christmas story told from alternating points of view, Jessica's and her white German Shepherd Zoe's. As Jessica deals with her insecurities trying to create the perfect Christmas (after never having one growing up in the foster system) while attempting to fit in with Max's wonderfully Christmas obsessed family, poor Zoe has to deal with Max's cat Groucho who keeps managing to frame Zoe for his wrongdoings! I always find books that reveal our pets' thoughts to be so much fun.
