Puppy Love Jenkins falls hard, sings soft, and loves louder than most.
In the heart of South Bend, Indiana, this scrawny, stuttering, dog-loving romantic gets knocked down by heartbreak more times than he can count, but he always gets back up. What carries him forward isn’t just resilience. It’s his big, unbreakable heart, and the powerful voice he doesn’t yet know belongs to him.
Puppy’s story unfolds against the backdrop of community, humor, and struggle, surrounded by unforgettable characters: Indiana Slim with his swagger, Auntie Ding Ding with her larger-than-life presence, Big Mitts with his fists and quiet tenderness, and Honey Chile, unforgettable in every sense of the word.
From summertime freeze cup hustles to block party serenades that shake the streets, Bless His Heart captures the music, grit, and soul of a Midwestern coming-of-age tale. It’s a novel stitched with both laughter and pain, scars and healing, struggle and redemption.
More than just a love story, Bless His Heart is a testament to resilience, survival, and the courage it takes to embrace your voice. At its core, it’s about learning that real love doesn’t wound or break, it doesn’t chain or silence. Real love holds.
Funny, tender, and deeply human, this novel is for anyone who has stumbled through heartbreak, laughed through tears, and still dared to believe in the kind of love that lasts.
