WHAT SHE NEEDS…Emily Miles already has plenty on her plate: caring for her rescued dogs, finding staff and volunteers, and raising money to keep The Wagging Tail rescue home going. So when new part-time vet Seth Pettit starts making her heart flutter, Emily tells herself it’s just gratitude.Seth has his own plateful – he’s newly responsible for a teenager, but he’s got no idea what to do with kids! Tough but delicate Emily needs a full-time partner and he can’t take on that role as a vet or a man. So why does he want to be both for Emily?

His broad shoulders strained the limits of his flannel shirt.

And his loose jeans outlined his muscular thighs as he donned protective gloves and hunkered down in front of the cage.

Everything about him was big, including his hands, and yet Emily knew he performed surgery. Strong, yet precise, firm, yet tender … There was no telling what those capable hands would feel like on her bare skin. A shiver of desire passed through her.

She gave herself a mental eye roll and bawled herself out. Now? She was lusting over Seth when the German shepherd was suffering from who knew what? The animals here depended on her to keep them healthy and safe, and find them new homes. They came first. Always.

Seth Pettit was a gorgeous man. He’d also given up his night’s rest to help this dog. She’d best get her mind on the matters at hand.
