Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
After a traumatic brain injury, military vet Behr Delgado refuses the one thing that could help him—a service dog. But Ellery Watson is sure the perfect pup will change Behr’s life and offers to work with him one-on-one. As Behr sets about overcoming his fears, Ellery’s surprised to find herself opening up about her troubled nephew.


My Review:
The Veteran's Vow is a romance. Behr needs a service dog but is afraid of dogs due to traumatic experiences while in the military. His sisters sign him up for a dog, and Ellery challenges him to try to overcome his fear of his service dog. They work together with the help of an expert in phobias. Ellery's troubled-teen nephew is staying with her for a while, and Behr works at a ranch that helps troubled teens. Behr helps him get into the summer program and mentors him. Ellery and Behr grow to care for each other as they work together, but Behr is committed to helping the family of his dead best friend while Ellery is too busy with her service dog program to have a relationship.

Ellery and Behr were both nice people who noticed when something was bothering another person and really listened. They quickly opened up to each other about their struggles and found ways to help each other. And the sweet dog was just perfect for Behr. The main characters were engaging and had depth, coming across as real people with real struggles. There was no sex or bad language. Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable romance.
