Here's another sneak peek at my work in progress, The Dating List. I can't share too much as I don't want to give anything away. Dogs figure prominently in several of my books. Especially pugs. So here are Buster and Daisy from The Dating List.

Colin
pulled into the driveway of the big Victorian house which started a cacophony of
barking from inside. By the time they started up the walk, they were assault by
Buster and Daisy, the Andrews’ family pugs, jumping up to plant wet kisses on
unsuspecting faces. Leah laughed as Buster leapt up to lick her face. Colin
tried to pull him down but the persistent pug made another attempt and
connected.
“I’m sorry. I forgot to warn you
about the dogs.”
“They’re adorable!” Leah laughed as she wiped her cheek with her
hand. The dogs ran to the front door then back to Colin and Leah.
When front
door opened, Leah caught her first glimpse of Colin’s parents. Mary, an
attractive brunette, wearing an apron had her arms wrapped around her torso.
John, tall with thick silver hair, wore a dark plaid flannel shirt held an
unlit pipe in one hand and the doorknob in the other.
Mary engulfed her son in a quick hug
while her husband motioned them inside. Colin took Leah’s hand and led her into
the warm entryway. After introductions were made, John took coats then ushered
the lovers to the blazing fire.

Very cozy set up. Although I prefer Labs, I adore pugs too. Sounds very romantic.

The greeting committee sounds like my house. We have 2 labs and a beagle and the noise is deafening. Lovely interlude!
Very sweet! I love pugs! Used to have one, and I miss the drooling ball of silliness every day. :)
Why did I know your story would include pugs? LOL. Nice job, as always.
I love how you described Colin's mom and dad in two sentences painting a vivid picture.
You know you're i a loving house when you gt met by happy dogs
I love the scene. I always love stories when parents are involved.
I love your writing because I can totally identify with your characters. Love the pugs. How can you not love being greeted by such adorable beings. LOVE DOGS!
Didn't realise Pugs were boisterous, you paint a lovely picture of many moods.
