Today we have a feature book and giveaway. So, here's the book blurb for Love at First Date:
Ellen may not believe in storybook love, but it’s about to rewrite her life . . .
Ellen’s figured out that finding the right guy is all about compatibility. That’s why she signs up for Detailed Dating—the local online dating scene in Sacramento. They ask men the hard questions, compare their answers with hers, then she filters through the profiles of each provided “match.” After numerous email exchanges, she narrows it down to two promising candidates she’s excited to meet in person.When Ellen’s best friend asks her for a favor, dog-sitting leads to disaster and Ellen ends up at the local vet where she meets a man she can’t get out of her mind. Henry isn’t a logical choice, but she finds herself paying for dog obedience class to spend more time with him.
Ellen knows that in order to have a lasting relationship, she should take the safe route and go for one of the pre-screened guys. But, how can she think with her head when her heart keeps begging her to give Henry a chance?Purchase links:

Sounds juicy with just the blurb. Here's an excerpt from Love at First Date:
Holding Rachel’s
bright yellow dishtowel under Chester’s saliva-dripping mouth, I panicked at
the morphed sounds he was making. “Hang in there, dude.”
I shifted him in
my arms then slammed on the metal bell some more. “Does anyone work here?”
“Can I help?” A
male voice came from behind me.
“Yes, this dog
got into my purse and—” I paused mid-sentence as my gaze met dark gray eyes
that sent a bolt of adrenaline through me. My heart flipped in my chest. Not an
appropriate reaction when Rach’s dog could be dying. “I-I think he ate
something toxic. Maybe my lip-gloss? Are you the vet? Can you give him that
charcoal stuff to make him barf it up?”
He studied
Chester’s half-open mouth. “Try setting him down. I’ll take a look.”
“Thanks.” I
knelt, still holding the towel under his mouth—because, ew, slobber all
over the place.
The vet dropped
to his knees next to Chester and pried his little jaw open.
Hech! Hech!
As he examined
the dog’s throat, I couldn’t help checking him out. There was something
going on behind those dark eyes that had me dying to learn everything about
him. Where he was from, what made him tick, what he looked for in a girl . . .
My pulse slammed
into overdrive.
Weird that the
vet was wearing sweats, though. Maybe he’d finished with his last patient and
was going for a run? Definitely looked like a guy who worked out regularly.
Yeah, that’s what I should be thinking about while my friend’s dog was gagging
for his life. What was wrong with me? Focus, Ellen. “Can you save him?”
