Each of the eighteen stories in this anthology is written about a very special dog and their interactions with those around them. This is a wonderful set of stories that each make for an entertaining read. I recommend this book for anyone who enjoys inspiring stories involving animals who help others. Must Love Dogs Anthology is a set of inspiring stories about dogs.
Nice easy to read stories with a dog as Cupid. Every story is well created and with good reality and plot. Well developed characters and often insta love. Relaxing and sweet.

I just loved this book. It was so well-written that it captured my mind and I was dragged along for the ride. Once I started reading I could not put it down until I read the last page.

This is a fantastic anthology!! The stories are short romance stories and features mans best friend. I cannot go into detail about each one or this would be very long. I can’t say enough about the authors and stories featured in this anthology. They were all great and I found some amazing new to me authors to follow.
This is for a wonderful charity. The books will touch your heart and so will the fact you’re helping so many get the sweet four legged friend that they need. You definitely need this book!!
This was a beautiful set of stories. Absolutely loved them all.
I will begin by saying, I’ve not read the entire anthology, but it does seem like a group of fun stories, for a worthwhile cause. That being said, I started by reading Sashy’s Salvation, by Darlene Tallman, because she is one of my favorite authors! I will be trying to read (and review!) the rest of the anthology, as time allows!
Sashy’s Salvation by Darlene Tallman
This story absolutely gutted me! I don’t know how the author managed to pack so much emotion into this story, but it definitely did me in. Sashy and Trick were childhood friends, who always knew they belonged together. Sashy left for the military, after high school, to begin her career, while Trick stayed behind to begin his own life, training service dogs with his dad. Throughout Sashy’s time of service, they stayed close, and stayed true to each other and their plans. I don’t want to give too much away, but life gets in the way, as it tends to do, and Trick has to pull Sashy back from the brink of throwing everything they could have away. This story highlighted the hardships many returning service members have, coming back from deployment, and their connection was absolutely beautiful to see. (It was also nice to see a couple where the woman was the returning service member, as in most stories, it’s the guy returning from overseas, and the woman that was left home to “support” her man in his service!) Anyway, the author promises to turn this short story into a much longer, more complete story, and I, for one, am looking forward to whatever she has in store for them!
Because Of Blue by Pixie Chica
Lynn barely survived an abusive relationship and now with her dog companion Blue she is slowly able to get back out into the world. However crowds still bother her. One day Lynn and her dog met Maddie and is immediately drawn to the girl. She helps her step out of her comfort zone even more. When she meet Isaiah she is pulled even more into their little family. But will they and Blue be able to help her accept that things are better and that she is safe?
Sashy’s Salvation by Darlene Tallman
Sasha and Trick meet when they are children on the bus to school. He tells her that they are going to be best friends and he plans to marry her one day. That same day he nicknames her Sashy. As they grow older they are still with each other even as she enters the military they promise to wait for one another. Trick trains dogs as service companions while he plans for their future. However when Sashy’s plane goes down and she is the only survivor with injuries to her legs will she come back to him? Will things be the same for them?
These are just a couple of the amazing stories you’ll find in this collection. Once I started I couldn’t put it down. Each story brings its own heartfelt story to the collection. This is a well written and very entertaining box set. I would recommend it to any book lover.

I have gotten this ARC voluntarily to leave an honest review
Words cannot express how amazing it was to read all the stories from this amazing line up of authors. The dogs bringing couples together was such a cute concept and work very well in all of these lovely stories. I will 100% be re-reading this anthology, and also going to read more from each of the individual authors! Must Love Dogs Anthology was just the pick me up I needed to cure my book funk!

A well written set of stories once I read the ARC I had to buy the set, I would say if you like dogs and romance this is the set to buy.
So good!! But almost a bad idea, judging by how many times I teared up when reading it. Truly inspiring, and highly recommended. Thank you for such a marvelous book.
First off, I could not agree more in the cause of the need of service animals. These amazing animals, not even always dogs, even provide a variety of comfort and ability for people to function in their day to day life by giving them a sense of normalcy and independence.
This book contains amazing stories with dogs and some hot men, perfect. Each story included is a great read. These stories are all well written and quick reads sure to give you that much needed break in the day. This book is an enjoyable read but for a great cause. Kali, I hope you are able to get your service animal. I read this book as part of an ARC program but purchased as well to contribute. Enjoy!
