After you've sold your soul to the devil, can you renegotiate with a dog? Brilliant defense attorney, Finn Morgenstern, knows the worst guys pay best, so defending slimeball, Rance Franklin, becomes his path to senior partner and a whole lot of benefits. But then a walk home to his pricey townhouse brings him face-to-ears with a batshit-crazy little dog who just won't leave him alone. So Finn takes the dog to the local veterinarian to find out how to get her back to her owners. Hello vet! Emerson "Em" Fairweather sure doesn't match his stodgy name. Tall, platinum blond, and gorgeous, Em puts the pet in pet ownership. But Em has ugly secrets and Batshit dog is up to her ears in larceny. Suddenly Finn is the one who needs defending, and he's faced with a choice between what he thought was important and a whole new batshit-crazy life. Contains mature themes.

I enjoyed this story. It’s different from the author’s other series, like ‘Balls to the Wall’, ‘The Pennymaker Tales’, and ‘The Aloysius Tales’. The topic was a little more serious and the writing was better. There’s more than one mystery and the author does a good job weaving them in and out to finally meet at the end. However, I did have difficulty figuring out who all the people were for about the first twenty pages. The story doesn’t start with the main character; it starts with a minor character’s pov, which threw me off. Then the story switches to Finn’s pov, but then, many more people are introduced, and it confused me. I didn’t enjoy the first part of the story.
I liked the two main characters. Finn starts out as driven to succeed, he doesn’t even like dogs and wants to dump Batshit at the vet’s or the Humane Society, but he keeps her and she wheedles her way into his heart. Finn is representing a big client, someone who is not on the right side of the law. Emerson or Em for short, is not his real name. He’s been running and hiding and has settled down long enough to open a vet clinic. Gradually, Em finds out whom Finn is defending and Em is ready to bolt. However, he’s drawn to Finn and Batshit and doesn’t want to run again. Things get more and more complicated as schemes are revealed and somehow Batshit is involved. Batshit was awesome. She was pretty fearless, proud, and seemed to have an uncanny ability to understand what humans either were talking about or wanted her to do. Well, except for stop barking. She never got the hang of that.
If you’re looking for detailed sex scenes, there aren’t any except one in the car. Most are fade to black which I liked. This book is focused on the mystery, action, and romance. It didn't need explicit scenes.
I enjoyed the mystery and the way the author wove everything together. Batshit was a nice touch because her antics kept Passions of a Papillon from getting too heavy and she livened up the action. I recommend this entertaining read and give this book, 4 Stars.
