From the author of The Fools Tale and I, Iago comes a disarmingly charming and warm-hearted romcom about a woman, her dog, and the man who has to prove that he is good enough for both of them.Sara Renault fired Rory OConnor from his part-time job at a Boston art museum, and in response, Rory-an Irish actor secretly nursing a crush on his beautiful boss-threw caution to the wind, leaned over, and kissed her. Now Sara and Rory are madly in love.When Rorys visa runs out on the cusp of his big Hollywood break, Sara insists that he marry her to get a green card. In a matter of weeks theyve gone from being friendly work colleagues to a live-in couple, and its all grand . . . except for Saras dog, Cody, who had been a gift from Saras sociopath ex-boyfriend. Saras over-attachment to her dog is the only thing she and Rory fight about.When Rory scores both his green card and the lead role in an upcoming TV pilot, he and Sara (and Cody) prepare to move to Los Angeles. But just before their departure, Cody is kidnapped by Saras ex-and it is entirely Rorys fault. Sara is furious and broken-hearted. Desperate to get back into Saras good graces, Rory takes off and tracks Cody and the dog-napper to North Carolina. Can Rory rescue Cody and convince Sara that they belong together-with Cody-as a family? First theyll need to survive a madcap adventure that takes them all across the heartland of America.Stepdog is a refreshing and hilarious romantic comedy that asks: How far would you go for the one you love?
