It doesn’t take much to become the laughing stock of reality
television. Just ask Theodore “Theo-Dog” Legend. Once you’ve pissed on a fire
hydrant in front of the paparazzi, no one ever lets you forget it.
Hadley Holiday is on her way to being America’s sweetheart, thanks to
her dog training routine on a national talent show. Although she didn’t win
first prize, she snagged Theo’s attention and he’ll do just about anything to
make her his—even if it means being the butt of everyone’s joke once again.
Hadley wants a career in showbiz. Theo needs to get rid of that doggone
nickname—pun intended. Pairing the two together on a new show sounds like a
disaster waiting to happen... or it could be the best thing that’s ever
happened to them.

Excerpt
“Okay. Change of plans—pie first,
cleaning later. I get weepy when I’m hanky.”
“Hanky?” Theo
followed me to the kitchen.
“It’s a
portmanteau.” Walking over to the table, I removed the foil from the dish.
Steam billowed up, carrying the heavenly scent of apples and cinnamon with it.
“I’m sorry, a
what?” Sounding utterly confused, Theo went over to a small white coffee maker
next to the sink and punched a button. It sputtered for a few seconds before
the aroma filled the room.
He grabbed two
mismatching mugs from the cabinet. Setting them down, he leaned back against
the counter while he waited for me to explain.
“Blending two words
to make one,” I said. “Hungry and cranky equals hanky.”
“Isn’t the term
‘hangry?’”
“No, I don’t think
that fits. I don’t get mad,” I clarified. “Just irritable.”
“It’s kinda like my
nickname, huh? Putting Theodore and dog together.”
“Yeah, kind of like
that.” I grimaced because he obviously wasn’t a fan of the combination. “I’m
sure whoever came up with that thought they were being very clever.”
“They probably got
promoted.”
“Probably.”
“Well, I’m feeling
mighty humpy myself.” When he said the word ‘humpy’, I could’ve sworn I saw his
pelvis do a slight thrust.
I almost fell over.
“Excuse me?”
He sent me a grin
that did funny things to my stomach. “Portmanteau. Hungry and grumpy. Humpy.”
That was
inappropriate but also correct. I couldn’t knock him for coming up with his own
word, even if it did draw my attention to his groin.
I tried to force
myself to look away from his lower half, but it was really difficult.
Because now that I
wasn’t scrutinizing his living quarters, my thoughts went elsewhere: straight
to the gutter.
The gray fabric of
his pants stretched over his crotch, and he probably wasn’t wearing underwear
because I could see a very distinct outline of his dick.
I didn’t mean to
stare at it, but it was just right there.
Out in the open. And alarmingly large. It was like spotting
a rare animal in the wild. The thing practically needed its own Australian
accented voiceover.
Inexperienced as I
was when it came to actual sex, I wasn’t completely innocent. I knew what a
semi-erect penis looked like. The length of it rested against his thigh and the
definition of the thick head was impressive.
I swallowed hard.
“Hey.” Theo’s voice
startled me, and my eyes snapped up to his.
My cheeks were on
fire. I’d been caught, and I wanted nothing more than to sink under the table
and hide.
“Hi,” I squeaked,
lowering myself into the chair.
“Let’s just blame
the rough start to the day on low blood sugar. Deal?”
Well, that wasn’t
what I’d expected him to say, but it was a lot better than him calling me out
for eye-balling his junk.
“Deal,” I
responded. Then for my own benefit, I added the reminder, “I’m looking forward
to being coworkers and friends.”
His left eyebrow
arched on the word ‘friends.’
Dang it. Maybe he
did see me checking him out after all.
For the sake of my
sanity, I really hoped he was planning to wear jeans for the show. And maybe
some underwear with crotch-confining support. Like a girdle, but for penises.

Theodor ( Theo-dog) Legend is used to all the negative attention his bad boy image normally gets but this time it’s different, a lot of alcohol and fire hydrant being in the wrong place at the wrong time has given him his new nickname of Theo-Dog ! The nickname is not his only problem Theo is broke he needs a hit reality show to take him back to the top so after seeing a show called The Final Showdown he has a brilliant idea why not take a dog trainer on air trying to train him......
Hadley Holiday appeared on a successful reality show The Final Showdown with her adorable border collie, she seems at home with dogs maybe she is the perfect candidate for the new reality show Theo wants to air....
This book has a unique storyline, the characters have plenty of witty banter going on and there is no doubting the sizzling chemistry that’s happening between them. As this book unfolds you get to know the real Theo, you get to see the caring side of him as he bares himself to Hadley. This book has the perfect mix of emotions, humour as well as some real sweet moments and I’m sure this book will appeal to all rom com lovers. Looking forward to more from this very talented author.

Untrainable is an interesting and rather different story centering on Theo and Hadley!
The genuine feelings behind the characters and the beautiful friendship that develops is rather wonderful!
It took me a little bit to get into the book but I was tearing up part way through and laughing with the characters!
Hadley and her family are an absolute hoot and I felt sad that Theo didn’t have that in his family!
I wondered how things would progress and if there would be a happily ever after!
Theo really endeared himself in so many ways if not for his beautiful compassionate heart!
I enjoyed reading this book and thought the storyline was unique!
Theo bares himself to Hadley and theres a raw emotion and sizzling connection between the two that is undeniable!
The storyline hooked me and I especially loved how it ended!
