Kim knew she wanted to be a writer before she even knew how to write. When her parents read bedtime stories to her, she knew she wanted to be a part of the story world.

Issues like faith and forgiveness, perseverance and tolerance.

Kim lives with her husband of more than thirty years and two teenage kids in Texas.

Excellent
Excellent short story! I love it when Salem and Vic get into some exciting plot to rescue or capture of find! They seem to always end up in the winning side, but the way they get there is filled with humor and so many twists and turns.

Another funny short. I really like the main character. Maybe because I used to groom dogs, also have a weakness for sweets (and I also have an extra 40lbs to show for it), and I too laugh uncontrollably when I’m nervous, or tired, or just watching dog videos😂. Anyway really enjoying this series.

Hilarious
Salem and Viv will have you cracking up with the silly things they say and do. Salem has a lot of hang ups and insecurities that she should work on as a grown adult. But otherwise the books are great!

Cute!
This is a cute short story! I can't wait to read more in the series. I love the crazy, down to earth characters. They sound like people I would actually hang out with.

So funny!
So far, I have loved every one of Kim's books! I like her realistic struggles with her 12 step program and she's just wacky enough to be believable! Keep 'em coming!

Short story about a kidnapped dog
Viv and Salem want to retrieve a kidnapped dog, one of Salem's clients. The usual antics ensue. Bacon is even involved.

I'm already in love with these characters! This was a cute, quick read but really pulled me in so that I'm interested in reading the entire series about this duet.

Three stars only because it was really short. Same funny humor in the book. This time its about a kidnapped dog. Her and her elderly partner go to find the dog. When you gotta go - you gotta go LOL

Very cute story.
Only one complaint about this book. It is too short. This author is writing some entertaining stories, so far I have enjoyed every one I have read.
