Kat vs. Dogs
Description
Despite her fear of dogs, seventeen-year-old Kat takes a job at her aunt's pet store.
Kat quickly learns that if she wants to keep her job, she's going to have to try to overcome her fears. Then Kat meets Hiro, a famous (and cute) dog influencer at the store. Kat starts watching his videos in hopes of getting over her fear of dogs, and soon she's crushing hard on Hiro. But if she's not a dog person, she doesn't stand a chance. Before she even realizes it, she's telling Hiro she loves dogs.
When Hiro asks Kat to look after his corgi, Pickle, Kat questions whether she can fall for dogs as hard as she's fallen for Hiro. Will she own up to her lie or finally overcome her fear?
