About this listen
It’s not long before their pet-centric arrangement sparks a person-centric desire…
Simon Burke has always preferred animals to people. When the countdown to adopting his own dog is unexpectedly put on hold, Simon turns to the PetShare app to find the fluffy TLC he’s been missing. Meeting a grumpy children’s book illustrator who needs a dog walker isn’t easy for the man whose persistent anxiety has colored his whole life, but Jack Matheson’s menagerie is just what Simon needs.
Four dogs, three cats and counting. Jack’s pack of rescue pets is the only company he needs. But when a bad fall leaves him with a broken leg, Jack is forced to admit he needs help. That the help comes in the form of the most beautiful man he’s ever seen is a complicated, glorious surprise.
Being with Jack—talking, walking, making out—is a game changer for Simon. And Simon’s company certainly…eases the pain of recovery for Jack. But making a real relationship work once Jack’s cast comes off will mean compromise, understanding and lots of love.
Carina Adores is home to romantic love stories where LGBTQ+ characters find their happily-ever-afters.

Both Jack and Simon’s personalities and situations tug on the heart strings and when they finally start to open up to each other it is delightful. They share some steamy scenes as the book progresses. Jack’s brother and Simon’s grandma also contribute to the enjoyment of the story.
I must admit it took me a while to get into the story. In fact, I switched to the audio version, which hooked me right away. It is superbly narrated by James Cavenaugh.
An enjoyable hurt/comfort romance
