About this listen

In Talyton St George, vet nurse Tessa Wilde is on the way to her wedding...It should be the happiest day of her life. But then her car hits a dog, and though the dog is saved, her wedding is not.

Animal welfare officer and part-time firefighter Jack Miller spends his life saving animals and people. As one of Tessa’s oldest friends, he feels he has the right to rescue her from a marriage that can only end in tears. But does he? Tessa is sure she doesn’t need rescuing, least of all by Jack.

When they begin to work together at the Animal Rescue centre, however, Tessa begins to wonder whether being rescued by Jack might not be such a bad thing after all.

What a lovely story. I really enjoyed listening to it even though at times it was so sad and the story wasn’t just about animals but the lives of those people involved in the running of the centre. Penelope Freeman read it beautifully.. I am sure that anyone who likes animals will love this book.

Thank goodness for animal rescue centres
