Book excerpt: Refreshing and insightful, rich with humour and brimming with life, this is the story of Nina Shepard, dog walker extraordinaire. With the keys to many strangers' apartments, Nina has the access, the freedom, and the choice to cross a moral boundary, and several foyers, and enter into other people's lives. And so she falls in love with Daniel, a man she has never met but whom she thinks she knows from snooping in his apartment when she picks up his dog for walks. But both Nina and Daniel are imposters, pretending to be what they are not. By the time they learn who the other really is, after mishaps and mistaken identities, deception and lost dogs, it's too late. They've learned too much about themselves and will never be the same again.
