Pride Day is coming to Foggy Basin! Of course I’ve volunteered! I can’t wait to see the shows and to connect with all my friends in town. I also want to ensure my busy husband has a good time. As I meet old and new friends, I find two really important people in my life are avoiding each other. Maybe some meddling is in order…?
Gabbi lives in beautiful British Columbia where her fur baby chin-poo keeps her safe from the nasty neighborhood squirrels. Working for the government by day, she spends her early mornings writing contemporary, gay, sweet, and dark erotic BDSM romances. While she firmly believes in happy endings, she also believes in making her characters suffer before finding their true love. She also writes m/f romances as Gabbi Black.
It's time for Foggy Basin to have their first Pride Parade complete with a festival. This is an event that no-one in town can stay away from but it seems there are a couple of people who are not very good at communication and might need a nudge in the right direction. Could their dogs help?
Christian and Noah are there, with their dogs, meeting and greeting friends old and new and trying very hard not to laugh too much at the amazing efforts of a five-year-old with face paints. Miss Esmeralda, Glynnis, Soren and Sam all make an appearance and it is the latter two who seem to be having a problem. If you've been following the stories, especially Noah and Christian's you'll have an inkling about what happened at Christmas but none of us are any the wiser, yet, about what spooked Sam and why Soren is struggling to speak to him.
This is a very cute story, another perspective on the lives of the men of Foggy Basin, their friends, family, neighbours and dogs, of course! It is also a wonderfully teasing lead into what I hope will be another addictive story, the story of Soren and Sam. Foggy Basin is my new home from home, these men, and their dogs, are my found family and I would love more people to discover them and all of Gabbi's other heartfelt stories too!

This was such a lovely, feel-good addition to the Foggy Basin world. The Pride event brings all the characters together in a way that really highlights the sense of community, and it’s hard not to get swept up in the atmosphere of it all.
Christian’s perspective adds a nice touch, especially with his gentle meddling and his focus on making sure everyone, especially Noah who actually enjoys the day. There’s a lot of warmth in the way friendships and relationships are portrayed, and the familiar faces make it feel like catching up with old friends.
The underlying tension between Soren and Sam adds just enough intrigue without taking away from the overall cosy vibe. It’s clear there’s more going on there, and this feels very much like a teaser for what’s to come.
Overall, it’s a short, sweet, and slightly emotional snapshot of this world, full of charm, community spirit, and just enough drama to keep you curious.

I love all of Gabbi’s little snapshots in time of characters from her different series, and the Foggy Basin one is no exception. It’s the first Pride Day and Christian and Noah are enjoying mingling after the parade, talking to people they know and connecting with the owners of the puppies Noah has trained. When Soren approaches Noah with a problem, then Sam talks to Christian, both have advice for this new pair on how to repair their friendship. The possibility of communication could go a long way to help those two to work their problem out.

Short, sweet, entertaining tidbit to possibly lead into a new Foggy Basin book.

This was a sweet way to wrap up this adorable friends to lovers couple. If you loved the previous books then you will love this. Like in the previous 2 books, I still totally love this small town the author created and the large cast of side characters and all their furry friends. This story focused in on a select few of those side characters and I couldn't have chosen better myself. Miss Ezmerelda was sweet and funny as always and I've been dying to know what was happening with Sam and Soren since the last book. This was a cute was to drop hints and lead up to their book which I will gladly read next.
This was a sweet addition to the world of Foggy Basin. Pride Day has come to the small town and Christian wants to be sure Noah and their friends have a good day. Only it seems Soren and Sam are avoiding each other, and Noah really wants to know why. While this is a short and there is clearly more to happen, this sets up things really well. I have a feeling Soren and Sam will figure things out in their own story but this is a lovely set up and I recommend it very much, as with all of Gabbi's lovely stories.

This is a very short Pride story featuring Noah and Christian. It would probably help to read their previous stories, but I have not read them, and I still understood the story and enjoyed it. It really seems to be a catalyst to introduce the author's next story in this Foggy Basin series with two different characters and she did a good job because now I want to read this upcoming story and see what happens.

The third season books of the Foggy Basin season will be released soon, and this is a short story setting the scene for one of the full length books. In previous books (Finding Noah, Noah’s Holiday) we’ve met the Noah and Christian, who relocated to Foggy Basin from North Carolina. Noah runs a successful dog training business. As they wander through Foggy Basin’s first ever Pride festival, the couple meet several people, with their dogs, including shy Soren. I’m looking forward to Soren’s story in this season.
I only read "Noah's Holiday" and "Finding Noah" a few months ago. So, these characters are only recent Foggy Basin residents for me (I'm more familiar with the "Nuts & Bolts guys). Of course I immediately fell in love with Noah and Christian. And all the puppies. This is a short, sweet addition to both the Foggy Basin and PRIDE series. Organizing the perfect Pride parade amid lots of friendly advice/interference. Pure cotton candy. Sticky, sweet and don't expose the floof to water.

This was a short but very cute read. I loved getting this short book with Noah and Christian and another view of what may have happen at last year's Christmas party. You can almost feel the tension between Soren and Sam. I am really looking forward to read more of Soren and Sam and the whole crew in Foggy Basin.

Sweet! A good day! Another sweet story showing Christian and Noah finde each other and make the right good choices and step on the right path. Christian and Noah, are delightful men who add a bit of fun to the series. The multi author series telling the adventure of those participating in the first Pride Day, is absolutely enjoyable. Nicely done. I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.
'As I meet old and new friends, I find two really important people in my life are avoiding each other. Maybe some meddling is in order…?'
The characters were very appealing and likeable and quirky. Plot was intriguing and exciting and well paced. World building was solidly drawn and impressive. Enjoyed immensely and highly recommend.
Grab a copy, kick back and enjoy!.

ARC review I love this short piece where we meet Christian and Noah again. I always loved Soren and can't wait for him to get his own happily ever after. He intrigued me when he was introduced in C&N story and now I'm dying to start reading his and Sam's story. I love Foggy Basin and finally they got their own Pride.
Dancing Through Pride is part of the multi-author Foggy Basin Pride series and each can be read as a standalone. This is a short story that brings us back to Foggy Basin with Christian and Noah. I really enjoyed this story and being back with all these wonderful characters.
I'm loving Gabbi's short stories. Seeing Noah and Christian living their best life was awesome. We get a bit of info on Soren and Sam, and I'm eager to read their story. Highly recommended author and series
I really enjoyed this story. This was a short sweet look into some familiar characters lives and a setup for the next story. It’s always interesting to see what the characters are doing after their HEA.
3.5 stars. A super short read with lots of lovely dogs and a little peek into the lives of Noah and Christian and the first Pride Day in Foggy Basin. Nice introduction to the next series. Thanks for the advance copy via Booksprout, I am happy to leave a voluntary review.
This was a wonderful slice of life short. Foggy Basin is celebrating Pride and we're catching up with Christian and Noah. The hints about Sam and Soren definitely have my curiosity piqued and I can't wait for more.
Christian volunteers at the 1st pride day festival and hoping his busy husband has a great time too. Noah runs a great dog training business loves seeing the dogs he has trained. They decide to meddle when their friends ask for advice on how to fix their broken friendship.
Super short read. I liked getting a glimps into Christian and Noah's life again and am exciting for Soren's story coming soonish. Otherwise honestly not much going on.
This novella is part of the multi author series of short stories about Foggy Basin’s first ever pride parade and we get to meet characters old and new, this is Noah and Christian’s story.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I liked this short story where the advice is to communicate openly because time can be too short.
Noah and Christian are enjoying the festival, meeting up with friends and wondering why two of their friends are avoiding each other. I enjoyed this short.
