An Animal House Shelter Story

Charlie’s New Home is a heartfelt story of separation, hope, and the bonds that grow in unexpected ways.

Alex Richmond, US Naval Reserves, faces the heartbreak of leaving his loyal golden retriever, Charlie, behind as he deploys overseas. With no family nearby, Alex entrusts Charlie to a local animal shelter. Maeve Torres, a compassionate volunteer at the shelter, agrees to foster Charlie.

Alex and Maeve, initially strangers, start communicating through email and text messages to keep Alex updated on Charlie’s well-being. Through these exchanges, they discover shared interests and experiences, realizing that they have much in common. The connection between them grows stronger with each message.

When Alex's deployment ends, both must face what their connection—and their love for Charlie—has come to mean. Will Maeve have to say goodbye to the dog she loves? Alex has trusted Maeve with Charlie, but can he trust her with his heart?
