Mishaps Abound as Second Chance Ranch Struggles to Get Its Start
Grab a kitty to cuddle and relax into a fun small-town mystery as a new animal
rescue project turns into a three-ring-circus of calamities in book 2 of
the Gone to the Dogs series. Trina Potter, Nashville country music
star, buys a ranch near her hometown in Brenham, Texas, to help her niece open
an animal rescue facility. Her presence in town stirs up some old high school
rivalries and romance. Finding property to buy is a challenge, convincing her
mother to move there with her is daunting, and navigating a string of strange
accidents is perplexing. Sometimes Trina feels like she's purchased her own
three-ring-circus instead of a beautiful piece of land. But her first priority
will be figuring out who wants Second Chance Ranch shut down before they even have
the grand opening.
My Thoughts:
What a nice trip back to Brenham, Texas this second in the series proved to be. Getting to know Mari in the first book, this time we get to know her Aunt Trina better. Trina Potter is a country music star living far away in Nashville. However, after a visit home she is really wanting to stay in her hometown for good. Can she do that with her contracts? Well, she is going to certainly find out. There is a lot she has been missing out on.
Trina wants to live privately in her hometown, nothing fancy, moving her mom in with her all the while helping Mari set up her animal rescue facility. But there are some ominous things surrounding Mari and her team when they go out at night for a rescue. Can the police get to the bottom of some of the troubling ones? And her Mama needs to be independent, but still have tabs kept on her. Especially after an accident that brings Trina home once again. Then there is Wyatt, her once upon a time prom date. He is not so nerdy anymore and he seems to keep showing up when she needs him.
I really liked the camaraderie all of these characters have with one another. The family dynamics were heartwarming, and I am glad these three women have one another to lean and depend on. As for the romance or more, I was pleasantly surprised.
