Third and Long
Trauma survivor, Abby Barclay, finds purpose for her life with her therapy dog, Gen, helping terminally ill children and their families deal with pain and loss. When a playground accident brings nine-year-old Dylan into her life, even Abby is surprised at the depth of bond between the boy and her dog. Her relationship with him – as well as with his divorced father, Scott – soon grows into something beyond professional.
Threatened by Abby and Gen’s close relationship with Dylan, Scott’s ex-wife reopens their custody arrangement, forcing Scott to decide between his son and the woman he loves. To make matters worse, Gen, receives a devastating prognosis.
As Abby weighs losing Scott, Dylan, and her beloved dog, she must decide whether loving anyone is worth the risk, and whether she can find the courage to go on even if she loses everything.

“This is a heart wrenching love story that will catch you by surprise more than once!” -Goodreads Review
“What a charming story! I wasn’t prepared to be as emotionally invested in all these characters as I was. I really enjoyed the many relationships and all their layers in this and everyone’s dynamic to each other. The story is about so much more than just Scott and Abby’s growing relationship, and Abby’s past felt like a character of its own, which really got me.” -Goodreads Review
