Publisher's Summary
A heart-stirring novel about the joy that comes from finding love in unexpected places by the New York Times and #1 Amazon Charts bestselling author.
Thirteen-year-old Abby Hubble lives in an unhappy home in the Sierra Nevada foothills where her father makes life miserable for her and her mother, Mary. One day Abby witnesses a man dump a litter of puppies into the nearby river. Diving in to rescue all seven, she knows she won’t be able to bring them home. Afraid for their fate at the pound, she takes them to an abandoned cabin, where all she can offer is a promise that she’ll be back the next day.
To grieving widower Elliot Colvin, life has lost meaning. Looking for solace, he retreats to the hunting cabin he last visited years ago, before his wife’s illness. What he discovers is not at all what he expected: seven puppies and one determined girl with an indomitable heart.
As Abby and Elliot’s friendship deepens, Abby imagines how much better her life - and the puppies’ lives - would be if her mother were married to Elliot instead of her father. But when Abby’s father moves the family hundreds of miles away, Abby and her mother must decide how long they’re willing to defer happiness.
Seven Perfect Things is a story about joy, where to find it, how to know it when you see it, and the courage it takes to hang on to it once you have it.

A solid 4 star
A feel good story about grief, emotional abuse and how a litter of puppies can help ease that pain, if only temporarily.
Catherine Ryan Hyde is my go to for a nice relaxing read with just a little bit of drama, but without taking you on a roller coaster ride. Well written and entertaining.(Worthy of a trigger warning if you are dealing with domestic abuse though)
Note: I think this one is better to read than to listen to. The narration is clear and pleasant but in my opinion, the character's voices are inconsistent throughout. There are not a huge number of characters, so it's not overly distracting, but I did find it noticable.
