Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and love is in the air in the quaint town of Cottageville. Dog groomer Sarah Carter, owner of Carter's Canine Coiffure, is feeling the pressure of overseeing the first annual Valentine's Day Pet Parade with her trusty Australian red heeler cattle dog, Whiskey, by her side. But if planning an all-day event for more than two hundred pets and their people wasn’t anxiety-producing enough, Sarah’s stress level skyrockets when a historic tree in Cottageville Park becomes the victim of an arsonist and Sarah’s best friend’s engagement party is overshadowed by a shocking theft.

Can Sarah and Whiskey and their closest friends find the fire starter and the thief before they strike again? Or will they all find themselves tangled in mysteries that could unravel more than just ribbons and hearts.
