So sweet it needed pancakes

Rescue You
by Elysia Whisler


Don't get the idea that this is anything other than a love story and you'll be satisfied. I thought it was about dog rescue!  

There's a little dog rescue but there's a lot more body building and massage therapy. Interesting stuff, all, and well explained. Great, great characters; some extraordinarily well-related action sequences, and a whole lot of mushy stuff that never came to the point of oozy. The author did a good job walking the narrow line between "no sex at all" and "way too much sex," in my opinion.  The amount that she included seemed just enough to complete the story but not so much that you were blushing throughout the scene.

I was very pleased. But there should have been more dog. More good dog.

Since one of the main characters ran a rescue organization and tended to go outside the law a little bit in her efforts to free abused and neglected animals, there was a little more detail on that subject than I wanted to read--we had to know what she was seeing in order to understand her behavior. But the descriptions weren't so graphic or scary that I had to put the book away. Just skim to the next paragraph and get on with the good stuff. And there was a lot of good stuff.
