Wellies and Westies

 

by Cressida McLaughlin

 

Catherine ‘Cat’ Palmer realises, too late, that bringing an adorable puppy into work at the local nursery was a bad idea, especially after the ensuing chaos gets her the sack.
Determined to turn a negative into a positive, Cat decides this is the perfect opportunity to get her dog-walking business off the ground with the help of her flatmates, Polly and Joe. After all, Primrose Terrace where she lives, is full of home-alone hounds…

Wellies and Westies is the first part of Cressida McLaughlin's Primrose Terrace series - and what a fantastic start to the series it is! The book is warm and fun and I loved the easy writing style that allows you to relax into the words and immerse yourself in Cat's world. There are lots of fantastic characters within the novella, from Cat herself to her housemates Polly and Joe and love interest Mark. And not let's not forget Disco, the adorable puppy.

 

Although this is only a novella and part of a series, it felt like a whole story in its own right. Having said that, I can't wait for the next instalment to see what will happen to Cat next.
