ABOUT THE BOOK Introducing Lisa Blake, the purrfect pet sitter! When Lisa Blake’s life in London falls apart, she returns to her hometown rebranding herself as ‘the purrfect pet sitter’ – which may or may not be false advertising as she has a rather unfortunate habit of (temporarily) losing dogs! But being back where she grew up, Lisa can’t escape her past. There’s her estranged best friend Flick who she bumps into in an embarrassing encounter in a local supermarket. And her first love, Nathan Baker, who, considering their history, is sure to be even more surprised by her drunken Facebook friend request than Lisa is. As she becomes involved in the lives of her old friends Lisa must confront the hurt she has caused, discover the truth about her mysterious leather-clad admirer, and learn how to move forward when the things she wants most are affected by the decisions of her past. MY REVIEW THE PURRFECT PET SITTER by Carol Thomas is a heartwarming story about the importance of friendship, both old and new, and family. Lisa Blake didn't plan to end up living back in her childhood home in her childhood town but when her relationship and life in London don't go to plan, home calls out to her. But it isn't long before Lisa feels like everyone has moved on except her and with her new job as the 'purrfect' pet sitter a lot harder than it looks, life just doesn't seem to be panning out as she planned. But when Lisa bumps into her old childhood friend, and drunkenly Facebook friends her first love, she starts to realise how her actions have impacted those from her past, and whether or not it is possible to start afresh in a place that holds so many memories. A little slow to start, THE PURRFECT PET SITTER by Carol Thomas soon wormed its way into my heart and I was hooked on what was happening. While I liked all of the characters, Felicity was my favourite and I enjoyed learning about her life the most. There is canine capers, hurt feelings, some handsome admirers, and real friendship mixed throughout this story and it will definitely appeal to contemporary fiction fans who enjoy a rewarding story. Well worth a read. AUTHOR BIO Carol Thomas lives on the south coast of England with her husband, four children and lively Labrador.
