Where the Echo Calls - Lee, Steve N

. .

Résumé :
He'd lost so much he wanted to die. But a stray dog changed everything. Left for dead in the gutter, Rio struggles to his feet and lurches into the shadows for a place to hide. Life has always been brutal, thanks to a monster of an owner, but at least he'd had food, a bed, a place to call home. Now...? Ben's life ended when he lost his family. Drink no longer dulls the pain; therapy is a joke; friends have moved on. He'd had everything, yet now...? But when the broken man meets the broken dog, they discover something neither had ever dreamed could exist... a reason to go on. In a story as heartwarming as it is heartbreaking, When the Echo Calls explores how hope can be found in the most unexpected of places if only we have the courage to look for it.

I almost laughed myself into an asthma attack during certain scenes and cried at the end of this book, all the while wondering if this is how my own dog perceives me. Kathy Banfield, Goodreads ?????
