Diamond in the Ruff by Emily Carmichael Pdf

Can a pup with a nose for trouble collar two lovers who need a miracle? Lydia Keane figured she’d be heading for heaven after finding her best friend, Amy, the perfect husband. But instead the reluctant angel’s still stuck here on earth, trapped in the chubby body of a corgi named Piggy — and blackmailed into another matchmaking mission! This time the job means manufacturing a little mischief before any marital vows are exchanged — an assignment that lets her hound every human within sniffing distance.... Wedding consultant Joey DeMato knows firsthand how hard it is to find true love. So when it comes to romance, Joey is all business — until Alicia, an old friend from college, becomes Joey’s latest client. Alicia is rushing into a marriage with a hero cop who saved her life. But as Joey tries to stay on the sidelines, the gorgeous groom gets under her skin — with more than a little help from a conniving canine! Piggy’s scheme includes nixing the planned nuptials in favor of Joey and the handsome lawman — but Piggy’s not the only one who wants the bride out of the way. Now, with just days until the wedding, can one devilish dog put the bite on a mysterious stalker and still find time to play canine Cupid?

Diamonds in the Ruff by Wanda L. Johnson Pdf

"If you're expecting a manual on how to raise the perfect well-adjusted pack member, may I refer you to anything by Cesar Milan, the Dog Whisperer, because - believe me - this isn't it!" And with that confession, Johnson embarks on a hilarious chronicle of the intricacies and challenges of being a multiple pet owner. Trying to balance the demands of a bellicose bitch, a diminutive diva, a compulsively eating min-pin, and a differently-abled Chihuahua results in occasional hysterics and frequent hilarity in this series of tales about woman's best friend, which will delight dog-lovers and those superior I-wouldn't-own-a-pet-if-my-life-depended-on-it people alike.

A Diamond in the Ruff by Richard Nurse Pdf

Title: A Diamond in the RuffSeries: "Jasper, Street Fighter & Me"Episode #: 2Premise: While enjoying an afternoon in a meadow reading, Maggie hears Jasper give out a sharp bark. Thinking that Street Fighter had managed to sneak up on Jasper, she just smiled and went back to reading her book, underneath the ancient old oak tree she was leaning against. When Jasper and Street Fighter, appeared in front of her, she quickly forgot about the book she was reading. Street Fighter was carrying a small leather bag that hung from his mouth by the drawstring, and Jasper had what appeared to be a human rib bone in his mouth. The bag in Street Fighters mouth contained uncut diamonds.Her 'boy's' as she calls Jasper and Street Fighter, had managed to find Maggie's Detective Firm, "Jasper, Street Fighter & Me" next case, or possibly even cases. When she followed the boys back to where they had found the bag and bone, Maggie discovered the partially opened, and shallow burial site of a human body. Sitting between the bones of the pelvis was another bag, just like the one that Street Fighter had brought her.Maggie calls her lifelong friend, Detective Jim Patterson from the Metro Police Department, and the sight is quickly labeled as a crime scene. The initial hypothesis is that it is one case and that the victim was a mule for the diamond smugglers. But Maggie isn't so sure, and during a relaxing dinner, at her home with Jim, and her boys, Jim is called out, when another body is found, in an almost identical state as the first body. Except for one big difference, there are no diamonds with the body, this time.Maggie has an idea where the diamonds at the body came from and devises a plan to prove her theory. The proving of Maggie's theory sets off a string of events that turn violent and put Jasper and Street Fighter to the test right along with Maggie. Events of a nature, that Maggie, has not experienced since she retired from the Marines.

The Formidable Earl by Sophie Barnes Pdf

He's breaking the rules for one woman, and coming dangerously close to falling in love... Simon Nugent, Earl of Fielding, knows he's flawed. He's arrogant, possessive, and haunted by a terrible choice he made long ago. So when a former friend's daughter gives him the chance to do a good deed, he grabs it. Except he'd like to grab her as well and teach her a thing or two about kissing. If only she weren't so damn stubborn. Ida Strong wants one thing - justice on behalf of her father. She has no room for anything else, in spite of her growing and (at times) inexplicable attraction toward a certain earl. But for a woman who knows what betrayal tastes like, placing her trust in others is hard. Risking her heart, would be downright foolish. Until it's the only thing that seems to make sense.
