When your marriage needs a little more training…
Desperation
Amy Keene is an exhausted wife, mom and manager doing her best to juggle everything until her lazy but lovable husband, Jack, brings home a puppy. In desperation, she decides to use the dog training techniques on…her husband.
Training
CCR training stands for Command, Consistency, Reward. Amy will attempt to translate the method to change Jack, but only if she can survive being taught by the pompous dog behaviorist, Jean Luc, who invented it.
Guilt
The guilt of keeping it secret lets Amy’s imagination run wild as her subconscious tries to work through if the effort of training Jack is worth the results. Her inner voices take on a life of their own through Busi, Babe and Knit-Picker, who rule her fantasies and dreams.
Truth
‘The truth will set you free.’ If the truth comes out about training Jack, will she lose the family she has worked so hard for? That’s what Nana, Amy’s train wreck of a mother-in-law, wants to make happen at any cost. Or will Amy finally be honest with Jack and have the marriage she desires?

What are people saying about Good Boy, Jack?
What fun, fun read, coupled with your gift of storytelling. Enjoyed every single minute. There will be a few choice quotes posted on my fridge. I’m so hoping #2 is already in the works. – Pat L.

“A MUST read, so relatable: I don’t think I’ve ever become attached to a character so quickly as I did with Amy. She immediately felt like a friend and her story felt so familiar. Every time I picked up this book I wanted to read it for hours, to finish the story, yet I didn’t want it to end. I just finished it and I’m sad and wondering how quickly Karen can write another…to bring us along with Amy and Jack through more of their story. Last year I read “The Friend Zone” by Abby Jimenez and loved it. “Good Boy, Jack” reminds me of that…an easy to read story with engaging and relatable characters.”- Lisa P. (amazon)
“Relatable – I was hooked 2 paragraphs in.
Wow, so relatable and hilarious. I couldn’t put it down which hasn’t happened to me with a book in years. I can’t wait for the sequel.” – Amy H. (amaz0n)
“I couldn’t put it down. It’s a story most married women should read because we do lose ourselves in being everything to everyone else.” Karen W.
