Love Laughter and Lots of Dogs is a feel-good, modern fairytale
romance between two childhood friends from different walks of life. Lord
Cory Winthrop, a banker who's dated models and other celebrities returns to his
childhood home and reconnects with Kelly Taylor who has started a new business
after being fired from her previous employment. She’s curvy, full of life and
laughter, and very differed from the women he’s normally dated. For him, it is
love at first sight and he never waivers when it comes to his feelings for
Kelly (she’s the one!) in spite of some negative comments their relationship
garners among the town’s gossipmongers.
Dating Cory is also a dream come true for Kelly who had a crush on
him in her teens. Despite worrying about their class difference (he’s a lord
she’s the mechanic’s daughter) she also doesn’t hide her feelings.
However, prince charming doesn’t do the rescuing. Instead, Kelly’s
previous work experience comes in handy when someone needs to save the day with
an event.
I loved that fact that the
heroine was a curvy girl and I wish the model on the cover reflected this. The pets
were cute and central to the story, creating a few ‘aaww’ moments.
There were no real conflicts as
far as I’m concerned; even when their obvious class difference was stated, it
ended up not playing any real role in their budding relationship. Most of the
conflicts were external, which only served to strengthen their already
established love for each other. Basically, they were two perfect people thrust
together by life and they fit right from the start. I wish there had been a
little more uncertainty, and therefore some necessary characters development.
The story is written in first person, from two POVs, which is
normally not to my liking, and the author does some backtracking from on scene
to another, which is something I also normally don’t like.
However, the author has a good writing style does a good job of
showing her characters’ feelings. This is a well-written story and would most
likely be enjoyed by readers looking for an uncomplicated love story with a few
laughs along the way.
