Synopsis "The Bow Wow and Meow Campaign"
The Bow Wow and Meow Campaign, the seventh in the Barbourville Series, is also a read-alone book. Following is a short description: Casey Trent is on the fast track as associate manager for an upscale department store in the city. Josh Preston is owner of a rundown farm in the country outside Barbourville, Tennessee. Casey is known as an up-and-comer; Josh, who takes in abandoned animals, is known as the cat-and-dog man. Casey figures they have nothing in common, but when Josh tries to interest the citizens of Barbourville in building an animal shelter, Casey offers to help. The town can't afford to support the center, so she suggests that she and Josh collaborate to raise funds for an endowment. Thus is born The Bow Wow and Meow Campaign. As they work together to plan their campaign, Casey begins to realize that there are depths to Josh she hadn't previously suspected, but nothing has prepared her to learn the full truth about his past. Once she does, can she find a way to forgive him, or is their tenuous relationship doomed to fade away? The Barbourville Series in order of publication is as follows: A Summer Sentence, Falling for Dallas, Dealing with Denver, Dreaming of Dayton, The Forgotten Christmas Tree, At Home in Barbourville, The Bow Wow and Meow Campaign.
