Publisher Description
With a spark of romance and a bevy of chaotic canines (Romantic Times), #1 New York Times bestselling author Fern Michaels delivers a wonderfully entertaining novel about the things we do to protect the ones we love and the happiness life can bring when we least expect it…
Olivia Lowell always believed her father’s claim that her mother died in childbirth, until the shocking day a lawyer informs her that her mother has just passed away, leaving her a fortune. However, the money comes with a caveat. In her will, Olivia’s mother reveals that she and two college friends committed a crime long ago, and now she wants Olivia to track down her accomplices and convince them to come clean.
Feeling betrayed by her father and unsure that she even wants her mother’s tainted money, Olivia must decide if she can handle the secrets of the past. Fulfilling her mother’s request won’t be easy, nor will mending her relationship with her father. But with the help and affections of a handsome young lawyer, and the sweet companionship of her beloved Yorkies, Olivia will come to understand who her mother really was, and who she, herself, was meant to be….

"I thought it was going to be a girl book that I got suckered into buying from book of the month, but it turned out to be a good read. Characters I actually cared for, and tons of cute dogs. I shouldn't be thrown off by pink covers from now on..."

" so far it's a cute read but it's predictable "
— Maria, 2/14/2014 -
" Flat, unlikeable characters. Contrived situations. I almost stopped reading it but the plot was interesting enough to pull me through to the end to see it resolved. A better writer could have done something with the plot to at least make an enjoyable read. "

— Estella, 1/12/2014 -

" Quick read and an interesting story. It did get a little out there at the end, but overall I liked it. "
— Michele, 1/4/2014 -
" Not one of her best works. I have been thoroughly enjoying the "Sisterhood" series. Next to that series this seems like an earlier less polished work. "
— Karla, 12/31/2013 -
" eh...listened to this one on CD in my car. It was entertaining but definitely not a great book. Predictable and pretty corny. "
— Julie, 12/10/2013 -
" I liked the characters and the storyline but it left me with some unanswered questions about what happened. "
— Patricia, 11/23/2013 -
" I was unable to finish this book. It was boring and I didn't like the main character, Olivia at all! She was whiny and unlikeable. She did nothing but complain in the part of the book that I did read. "
— Sierra, 10/15/2013 -
" My favourite and most interesting storyline in that book was the one about the bank robbery. The rest was a little bit of a "filler" and boring. The love story was a bit too quick and unrealistic which in my opinion spoiled the book. "
— Dominika, 10/15/2013 -
" Just okay. Typical Fern Michaels book. "
— Tammy, 9/8/2013 -
" Total and utter crap. The writing was very stiff and the charictors were completly flat. "
— Betty, 5/24/2013 -
" It was an intriguing story although I felt a lot of negative emotions throughout where I thought there could have been more service oriented or at least curiosity based actions. I never really felt a connection to any of the characters. "
— Susan, 3/8/2013 -
" I let my daughter, who's five, pick this one. Not as bad as some other ones, but a bit too corny for me. "
— Paula, 12/21/2012 -
" Usually I enjoy books by Fern Michaels, but this one really dragged and I completely lost interest in it towards the end. "
— Amy, 7/2/2012 -
" This book was slow getting started. It was an okay read. "
— Linda, 2/26/2012 -
" Not one of this author's best. Good concept for a story but is not executed well. Too much unnecessary "stuff" made the book tough to get through. "
— Lorraine, 8/12/2011 -
" This was the first book for Fern Michaels I have read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I read it in one day (as I didn't have to go to work). It was a fun pleasant read. Good story. "
— Pam, 7/31/2011 -
" Well...I got to page 75 and I had a VERY hard time staying concentrated with this story! I feel I gave it plenty of time to reel me in but it never happened!! I don't believe I've ever tried a Fern Michaels book but this wasn't a very good "first impression" :( "
— Keri, 7/7/2011 -
" Cute story. Sweet girl, wretched birth mother. "
— Marilyn, 4/12/2011 -
" I found this to be a fun story to read and that the dogs added a unique touch to the story. This was a nice and easy read that was enjoyable - I do like reading books by this author. Nothing too heavy, just right. "
— Carol, 3/17/2011 -
" Goes a litle long with the author trying to cram in too many cute dog stories and romance items into a mystery. <br/>Good enough read. Characters are likeable. Mystery is interesting. "
— Barbara, 12/23/2010 -
