Summary: Ruby Taylor gave up pageant life the day she turned eighteen and figured she'd never look back. She has no intention of taking the stage ever again, but when an elderly friend begs her to help show her Golden Retriever, Wheezy, in the local dog show, Ruby reluctantly straps on her heels and gets to work. Too bad Wheezy is the laziest, most adorably good-for-nothing dog she's ever met. If there's one thing veterinarian Spencer Wilson knows in this world, it's dogs. Human beings, however, are a different story. Especially gorgeous women clearly in way over their heads. As judge for the local dog show, Spencer advises Ruby to quit while she still can, but her old fervor for winning has returned—and she wants to show the stern, broody-eyed judge that she's more than just a pretty face.

This book was pitched for fans of THE HATING GAME, which everyone knows is one of my favorite books of all time, so clearly it was no question when it came to adding this book to my TBR. I'm also a huge sucker for romance novels with illustrated covers lately, so I'm not ashamed to admit that that roped me in, too. November can't get here soon enough -- I can't wait to read it! And the fact that it comes out on my anniversary is just a fantastic bonus...so maybe I can convince my boyfriend to get me this as a gift! ;-)
