About the Book

A few rough breaks lead a woman at the end of her leash to journey across the pond to fetch a surprise inheritance–but the dogs she rescues along the way have other ideas.

The plan was simple: Elizabeth would suffer through a quick trip to her late father’s family homestead in the English countryside, try not to think about how she was unjustly fired from her dream job, claim her inheritance, and hop on the next flight back to Silicon Valley where she can get her life back on track.

The plan does not include rescuing an abandoned black and white puppy. Or bonding with her long-lost aunt and uncle, their Border Collie, and their two very opinionated sheep. Or falling for the handsome local who runs the town’s craft brewery. As Elizabeth’s brief visit to Fargrove turns into an extended stay, she discovers that she has more in common with the new puppy than she realized.

Reflection

A light-hearted, feel-good story that will leave you with the warm and fuzzies we all need right now!

Like so many, I am struggling through 2020. Between the pandemic and the disconnect in our country, I have been seeking ways to unwind from it all. When I picked up Victoria Schade’s Who Rescued Who, it was a total breath of fresh air. It is love, light, and fun packaged into an adorable and heart-warming story. The perfect book to help you beat those 2020 blues!

Social media influencer and HR manager Elizabeth Barnes shares her entire life online. Afterall, is she truly experiencing something if she doesn’t post about it? Living in Silicon Valley, she has plenty of social media-worthy moments to capture. But when she makes a joke during an interview that jeopardizes her company, she finds herself out of a job and much less to share on social media.

Just when she thinks she has hit rock bottom, her father passes away and her hopes of truly connecting with him and finding a sense of family and home she’d been lacking is gone. Until her uncle contacts her and invites her to England to visit her father’s land that she has now inherited… Her plan is to sell the land and get back to life as she knows it. But perhaps that isn’t what fate has in store for Elizabeth.

Sometimes when everything goes wrong, we find our way to what is right.

I loved the theme of finding yourself just when you feel your most lost. For Elizabeth, it seems that she had gotten so misguided, she needed her life shaken to it’s core in order to get onto the right path. A sweet and fun read, I just completely adored this book!
