A reminder of the unbelievable bonds we form with the dogs in our lives. No matter how broken you are, the unconditional love of a dog can piece you back together in this book that's perfect for fans of A Dog's Purpose, The Art of Racing in the Rain, and Marley and Me.








Madison knows her fourteen-year-old daughter Abbie is struggling. She wishes she could give Abbie stability, the promise of a forever home in Millbury, but she is scared to stay in one town for too long, and every day Abbie seems more anxious. Until a chance encounter with a beautiful, boisterous golden retriever puppy called Duke changes everything...




Duke bounces into the community centre where Madison is working and when Abbie meets him she stops pacing the room. Duke is tugging his owner, seventy-five-year-old Arthur, along for the ride, and instantly Madison sees a way she and Arthur can help each other. She offers to train Duke so that Abbie gets to see him, and from that moment the four of them become a family.




Madison finally feels like she has a second chance at life and a reason to stay in town, but when her past catches up with her they are all at risk. Duke may have united this family, but will he be able to keep them together?

    What a heartwarming novel. Duke is a special puppy. When the reader first meets Duke, he is a lost puppy in search of a home. When retired judge Arthur Patterson finds Duke, Judge Patterson has just lost his wife and is a,lonely sad elderly gentleman. Duke is such a delight, bringing joy and happiness to Arthur. When Madison and Annie are introduced in the story, one can sense how a family is forming. Read this wonderful novel and enjoy!

    I am a dog lover from the get go so I had a feeling I would like this book. Oh my, I was hooked from the first page. What a beautiful story of a dog who came from a horrible situation but got a second chance at a better life and the people he came to protect, love, and finally become a family with. Highly recommend this to any dog lover and anyone who loves how dogs and humans coexist as one unit. Beautiful story and I look forward to more stories by this author.

    After reading A Dog's Hope I couldn't wait to read this book. It was just as good as the previous book. I love 💘 stories about animals and the comfort and loyalty they provide for their family. The story is very factual and confirms what any owner of a dog knows about their companionship and loyalty to the family who loves them. Should make everyone want a dog in their life and there are many waiting to find a forever home and family. Thank you again.

    I loved this story. It’s so in depth but never drags on or boring. Grabs your interest immediately. If I didn’t already have a wonderful Lab I would want to get a dog from reading this story. Made me look at and appreciate my dog more.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 31, 2021
    I loved this story, I have always had pets, always been happier with my cat or my dog next to me. I had a big loss too and my little dog slept on my bed and spent every waking hour close by my side for years while I nursed my partner with his illness. Wh3n he passed she still kept me company until it was her time to go. The story explains all the sadness, anxiety and emotional help a pet can give us to heal. Everyone should grow up with a pet, they are the very best companions. I heartily recommend this book. Be prepared to shed a few tears.
