In Tails of Love, each writer draws from her own unique perspective on our loyal friends--exploring the many mysterious ways they bring love into our lives.

A silly and sweet picture book featuring a variety of dog breeds and dog tails Every dog has a tail. Every tail has a tale. Some tails are long. And some tails are short and sweet.

The best therapist has fur and four legs... Aimee Price thought she had everything in the bag. Then she found out that her ex had stolen her work, sold it, and trashed her reputation on the side. Suddenly things didn't look as rosy as she'd thought. Luckily, she's not facing this on her own. Morgan Clarke, her brother's best friend and her new flame, is willing to stand next to her as she fights for what is right, including going with her to New York to fight for her reputation. Except now, she's got a whole new bag of troubles. The company that bought her stolen work wants to hire her—but only if she moves to New York. Meanwhile, Morgan has plans of his own... that don't include moving to New York City. He's planning to stay in Long Neck with his new contact Gracie to open up a dog-training business. To complicate matters even further, Aimee's parents announce that they're selling the family farm to a land developer and moving out of town. Aimee's brothers come up with a scheme to save the farm, but it will only work if Aimee invests in it. And stays home. Staying home would mean risking her shot at a big career and a move back to the city she once loved. That would mean leaving behind the man she's come to love and losing what she's been building with him. It would also mean turning the family farm over to a developer who will raze the family home. Aimee knows what her heart wants, but she's not sure she's ready to listen to it. After all, she's been burned by love before. The question is, will she choose Morgan, her family, and her home? Or will she run back to the city, take the big job, and move on with her life? The answer lies somewhere in the middle... if Aimee can find it. And if she can convince Morgan to wait for her.
