Hi, my name is Bentley. I'm a mutt with a dash of pit bull in the soup, and I have issues. I'm not likely to win any beauty pageants, and I'm afraid of cats. But my human, Norah Kent, thinks I'm the greatest despite all my shortcomings.
The problem is Norah won't go out with anyone who doesn't like me. Norah says she's perfectly happy being single, and that in God's time she'll marry Mr. Right. But I think God's time may be right now, and Mr. Right may be Officer Nick Haley - the one guy who's afraid of a kitten-fearing basket cas of a dog like me. I'll do just about anything to bring Norah and Nick together, even if I have to ...gulp...woof.
***Not written from the dog's viewpoint as the jacket alludes to. Cute, funny and well written. Lots of insite into facing your fears with God's help.

"Life, faith and getting it right"
This is the first time I have ever picked up and actually read a "faith-based" novel. If it wasn't for the name and the picture of the adorable pup on the front cover I probably would have passed right over it. However, I am a sucker for an animal on any book cover. To my surprise, I really enjoyed this book. It was a light and quick read...(Stayed up well past my bedtime to get it finished). There wasn't too much religion, just enough to make the story fit together nicely. I don't think I will go running right out for more of this type of book, but for a first time read I definitely enjoyed it and however, wouldn't run away from these books either. Very enjoyable.

I really loved this book. It was hilarious! I quicky bought a bunch of her other books and have not been dissapointed. This is the first book I have read where the dog has an opinion, but it does not make it cheesy.
