5.0 out of 5 stars If it's a dog's life, we should be so lucky!, Oct 1 1998

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Fudgeballs and other sweets (Paperback)

This little book is a total hoot, especially when we're in the dog's point of view. The imagry and humor in Fudgeballs is superbly done and one can believe this is actually the way dogs think.

As for the romance between Dave and Jenny, and their misunderstanding, it was cleverly done and kept you on your seat wondering when our hero and heroine were going to figure out who was supposedly moving. Given the subject, though, I think I gained ten pounds just reading about all that delicious fudge!

Gee...I wonder what bull-poodles really look like? -Lee Emory

5.0 out of 5 stars Fudgeballs and Other Sweets, Feb 22 2005

By Alicia E. Flores "Simply Ali" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Fudgeballs and other sweets (Paperback)

Back cover reads:

Princess, the poodle, had a perfectly glorious life, a dog's life in fact...

Until that annoying bulldog, Jake, moved in next door.

Jenny McNeill had a perfectly glorious life, a life every successful woman might dream of, until that irritating Dave Kasada moved next door. With his dog.

Then a baby was abandoned on her doorstep. And Jenny's biological clock began to tck loudly. And Dave began to look more and more appealing, and Jenny wasn't even going to think about what tricks the dogs were up to! She needed to concentrate on her candy business! Candy was good. Candy was her future. Candy, not sexy Dave, was what she should be thinking about!

But all the while she couldn't help thinking Dave looked awfully sweet and tempting...
