Fetching Sweetness by Dana Mentink + Giveaway

5 Comments Edit


Title:  Fetching Sweetness
Series: Love Unleashed Collection, Book 2
Author: Dana Mentink
Publisher:  Harvest House Publishers
Release Date:  July 5, 2016
Genre: Inspirational Historical Fiction



Standing between Stephanie and her dream is one hundred pounds of lovable trouble.

 It should have been so simple for Stephanie Pink: Meet up with Agnes Wharton in a small town in California, retrieve the reclusive author's valuable new manuscript, and be promoted to a full-fledged literary agent.

 But Agnes's canine companion, Sweetness, decides to make a break for it before Stephanie can claim her prize. Until Agnes has Sweetness safely back at home in Eagle Cliff, Washington, Stephanie will never set eyes on the manuscript she needs to make her dreams come true.

 When Stephanie tracks the runaway mutt to a campground, she meets Rhett Hastings---a man also on the run from a different life and a costly mistake. Rhett agrees to help Stephanie search for the missing dog . . . thus launching a surprising string of adventures and misadventures.

 Once Sweetness gets added to the mix, it's a recipe for love and loss, merriment and mayhem, fun and faith in the backwoods of the Pacific Northwest.




Fetching Sweetness by Dana Mentink is the second of her Love Unleashed collection, but it's a standalone novel. Like the first one, Sit, Stay, Love, it oozes with sweetness of the dog and the main characters. Rhett and Stephanie meets early on in the story, and together with "Sweetness" encounters many fun and funny events, bringing laughter to you, as the reader. I especially enjoyed the different levels of development Rhett and Stephanie have by the end of the story. Hard topics as loss and guilt were the main thread, yet, Dana happens to instill a light atmosphere, allowing readers to take away the message without the heaviness.

Every time I read one of Dana's Love Unleashed novels, I want to go right out and get a dog.  Dogs are not idealized in Dana's novels, but instead written as 'trouble.' Yet, along with the trouble, comes the love and the passion - definitely a case of the benefits outweigh the strife.

So I suggest you to follow in "Sweetness'" paw-steps and dash right out to the bookstore, and grab yourself a copy of Fetching Sweetness. And while you're out, and if you have not read Sit, Stay, Love, grab that one too. You'll thank me.

    This was a great book! I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. Thanks for recommending Sit, Stay, Love as well. I haven't read it, but might need to check it out.
