Stay

Savannah ('Van' ) Leone hasn't been the same since she lost her mother to cancer three years ago. Now, after watching her best friend Janie marry the only man she has ever loved, she drowns her sorrows in Kool Aid-vodka cocktails and reruns of Rin Tin Tin and buys a German Shepherd on the Internet. The pocket-sized puppy she's expecting turns out to be a hundred-pound beast that's impossible to train and only responds to Slovakian. Van feels like life couldn't get any worse, until she realizes that this dog might just be the only living being that will always be loyal to her. Van affectionately names the dog Joe, and together they embark on picking up the pieces of her shattered heart. When Joe leads Van to Dr. Alex Brandt, a rugged vet with floppy blond hair and a winning smile, Van feels happy and in control for the first time since her mother died. But just as things are starting to heat up with Alex, the newlyweds return from their honeymoon, forcing Van to decide just how much she's willing to sacrifice in order to have everything she's ever wanted.
