Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Could you survive 10 days in a car with the person who destroyed your faith in love? Chloe has nothing good to say about Alex. Not since the day he deserted her, leaving their future in tatters. Alex’s heart has remained true to Chloe during their five years apart. All he needs to do is convince her to give him a second chance. Much to Chloe’s dismay, a simple promise finds her driving Alex across the outback to his sister’s wedding. Will they make it to the end together or will their fractured past destroy their chance at love? In The Doghouse is an introduction to the Love Down Under series. This short story was previously published as Back To You in the Steamy anthology. It is a stand alone romance with medium heat.

    Written in alternating, first-person POVs, this is fun from the get-go with a snarky female lead and a scheming male lead. Throw in a lovable canine character and I’m hooked.


    Forced proximity.
    Road trip!!
    Second-chance romance.
    Exes - to - enemies? Sorta? To … it evolves quite a bit.
    Hilarious banter.
    Random facts as the couple tour and explore.
    Best friend’s brother / sister’s bestie.


    Overall:
    A super cute, quick read with a bit of heat and lots of fun and sweet moments, and some adventure. I’d absolutely read more from these characters or any of their friends.

    4 stars.
