An innocent small town animal trainer is out to rescue the heart of her brother's best friend in this charming and wholesome contemporary romance. Zeke Harper has always seen animal trainer Mollie McFadden as someone in need of his help and protection. Nothing more. Having known her since childhood as his best friend's sister, he can't cross the line-no matter how irresistible he finds the girl next door. Until a surprise kiss takes them beyond the bounds of friendship. Now Zeke wonders if this woman who opens her life to pets in need can find a place for him-in her heart!

Stacy Connelly dreamed of publishing books since she was a kid writing about a girl and her horse. Eventually, boys made it onto the page as she discovered a love of romance and the promise of happily-ever-after.

In 2008, that dream came true when she sold All She Wants for Christmas to Silhouette Special Edition.

When she is not lost in the land of make-believe, Stacy lives in Arizona with her two spoiled dogs.
