But sometimes those mysteries conceal a truth better left buried. And when a devastating secret is suddenly revealed, dividing loyalties and uprooting lives, no one–from Winnalee and her sister to Button and her family–will ever be the same.

Pages : 112
Book Description
Are you at the end of your tether with your reactive dog? Barking, lunging, screaming at people and other dogs? Here you can learn proven, positive, and simple science-backed techniques developed by professional dog trainer Beverley Courtney through her years of study and working with thousands of dog-owners like you, both face-to-face and in her popular online coaching programs. Picture the scene: you’re walking along the road with your dog when - horror of horrors! - another person with a dog appears at the end of the street. You start to breathe faster, your heart rate speeds up, you clutch the lead tightly to you, keeping your dog’s head close. Your dog spots the other dog, and lunges forward on the lead, barking ferociously. You gasp out broken commands as you try to keep your feet on the ground. The other person sweeps by, looking down their nose at you. Now shame enters the mix. Your dog has behaved badly, you were quite unable to control him, and now you’re condemned as a useless dog-owner with a nasty dog. This walk has turned into a walk of shame and misery. Your dog is now on his toes, anxiously scanning for the next intruder to bark at. Your hands are sore, your throat is dry. You wish you could disappear into a hole in the ground, wondering where you have gone wrong. Sound familiar? The first thing to realise is that you are not alone! There are lots of people who have dogs whom they love dearly - dogs who are a pleasure and delight about the house: calm, biddable, great with the kids. But as soon as they venture out of the door, the horns and the forked tail grow. 👉 Book 1 in the easy-to-read series Essential Skills for your Growly but Brilliant Family Dog shows you exactly what is going on with your dog - why he’s doing what he’s doing - and sets you on the road to make some changes born of understanding that will ultimately transform your walks. It’s important that you have this knowledge before you attempt to make the changes in Books 2 and 3. “If you want to enter a phase of partnership and understanding with your dog then this is a book for you!” 5* review Beverley writes with empathy for anyone whose dog has been labelled anxious, fearful, aggressive, or reactive - and the undercurrent of humour which flows through all her books will keep you smiling as you work through this entirely force-free program.

He’s growly. Grumpy. Stubborn. And now, my new roommate. Walking away from my disastrous last relationship was an easy decision, but moving in with a friend-of-a-friend hockey star who’s rarely home? Not quite as simple, because Grant makes me feel all kinds of things I’m not prepared for. Protected. Desired. Unsteady. • • • She’s beautiful. Smart. Tempting. And a little fragile. I’ve never been anyone’s knight in shining armor, but when Ana needed a place to stay, it was easy to offer her a room with me. Not so simple, though, is keeping my hands—or my mouth—to myself. And the night she crawls into my bed and shares her body with me? Heaven. But she’s not looking for a relationship, and to my surprise, I find myself pissed off by that idea. They say my heart is broken, that I’ll never settle down. I used to think that was true. Now, though? Hell, your guess is as good as mine. First, she took my bed. Then she took my heart. Then she took my everything. Your favorite hot jocks are back with an all new standalone novel. If you like sexy, confident men who know how to handle a stick (on and off the ice), and smart women who are strong enough to keep all those big egos in check, this series is for you!
