To All the Dogs I’ve Loved Before

Pine Hollow, Book 3

by Lizzie Shane

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

Do enjoy dogs in your romance? How about match making dogs?? Well, dog lovers rejoice! The third instalment of Lizzie Shane‘s Pine Hollow series, To All the Dogs I’ve Loved Before not only has a dog, but she plays a pivotal part of matchmaking for this pair of former sweethearts!

Dory, an adorable rescue pup is a teeny Houdini (😆!) and is constantly breaking out of her owner, school librarian Elinor’s home while she’s at work… thankfully her former high school sweetheart and ex-fiancé, police chief Levi is pretty good at catching his pup! All of these forced encounters make Elinor and Levi question what broke them up and if they have a possible future together…

This was a slow burn, second chance romance that really hit home. The hurt over the failed engagement and their own perceived faults was palpable as I read this book. I really appreciated the attention to personal growth author Lizzie Shane gave to both Levi and Elinor to allow them to reach a place where an HEA between them was possible and realistic.

This series stole my heat from the first book, The Twelve Dogs of Christmas (a holiday must read!😉), and continues to keep me coming back for more!

To All the Dogs I’ve Loved Before by Lizzie Shane was released November 30th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Forever Publishing and NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
