Status Updates From Rising Storm (Bluegrass Bro...

Marshall wants to date her but she wants to forget it ever happened. Meanwhile there is a dog fighting ring and people start finding blood and dead animals on some of the secluded forest areas. Someone is training fighting dogs. Katelyn the vet has sewn up a few and the whole town is horrified at this animal abuse. The characters from previous books are part of the story as are the gossipy town folks.

She works hard with scholarships, modeling and puts herself through vet school then comes home to open vet clinic. She loves what she does but many people treat her badly including Marshall Davies (5 yrs older than her) and the new Sheriff who grew up seeing her as the spoiled rich girl.
He goes out of his way to torment her and she avoids him, till a night at a party leads to a one night stand.

Love all of the Bluegrass series. The town is quirky and the characters range from young to old with lots of animals in the plots. This one features Katelyn who grew up in town till she was sent to boarding schools. Her dad is rich ahole and her mom has been married many times, trading up to make sure she has lots of money and things. Neither parent cared for her but her grandparents love her dearly.
