But still, as a rom com premise, it’s hilarious and original and I appreciated the hell out of it. I mean, what kind of nut-job would leave a billionaire dollar company to a dog and expect the dog to run the board? But after seeing a woman carrying a Chihuahua in a newborn sling into my son’s taekwondo class the other day, I started thinking maybe it wasn’t so ridiculous after all. ![]() ![]() ![]() The first book in the series, also called Garnethill, won a Crime Writers' Association award for best first novel.
