St. Francis Society for Wayward Pets

A Novel

By: Annie England Noblin

Narrated by: Sarah Naughton

If you love Susan Mallery and Jill Shalvis, you won’t want to miss this new novel of second chances, dogs, and knitting, from the author of Pupcakes and Sit! Stay! Speak!

Laid off, cheated on, mugged: what else can go wrong in Maeve Stephens’ life? So when she learns her birth mother has left her a house, a vintage VW Beetle, and a marauding cat, in the small town of Timber Creek, Washington, she packs up to discover the truth about her past.

She arrives to the sight of a cheerful bulldog abandoned on her front porch, a reclusive but tempting author living next door, and a set of ready-made friends at the St. Francis Society for Wayward Pets, where women knit colorful sweaters for the dogs and cats in their care. But there’s also an undercurrent of something that doesn’t sit right with Maeve. What’s the secret (besides her!) that her mother had hidden?

If Maeve is going to make Timber Creek her home, she must figure out where she fits in and unravel the truth about her past. But is she ready to be adopted again—this time, by an entire town…?

Enjoyed the story

Interesting story that holds your interest. Quirky characters. Easy listening for my long rides and the narrator’s voice was pleasant.

St. Francis Society Wayward Pets

I enjoyed the story. It was really good. I like how it went back from the past to the present all through the story.

Couldn’t put it down!

This is a wonderful story I didn’t want to see end. I hope there will be a sequel!

TITLE IS MISLEADING

The only pets in this novel are the dog and cat that the main character has,, the fact that the knitters' club makes sweaters for animals

Surprisingly Endearing

Not sure what I expected but it wasn’t to become emotionally attached and invested in this town and its people. It was sweet but shockingly emotional only to end up exactly how it was supposed to.
