Unleashed by Emily Kimelman.

Joy breaks up with her boyfriend, loses her job in the coffee shop and is looking for a fresh start. She gets a dog who she calls Blue and manages to find work as a dog walker. Then the fun begins as Joy has exciting adventures around New York.

Unleashed is easy reading, it is not a top crime thriller novel but something to pass the time with. It is a first person narrative but is written in the style of a television soap opera. The dialogue between characters is very good and witty. Joy is a colourful and lively person, a young woman with lots of attitude. The plot however is very far fetched and this lack of reality spoils this story.

Emily has a game plan and this book is the start of her series. You get to the end when the subtitle of Sydney Rye is introduced. This is cheap hype and you are left with nothing more than B-Movie content. I consider Unleashed to be an okay, 3 star read and it is worth nothing more.

Unleashed is available as an Amazon Kindle eBook and was written in 2011.
