If there’s been a theme in Justine Meade’s life, it’s loss. Her mother, her home, even her son. The one bright spot in her loss-filled life, the partner she could always count on, has always been Mack, her gray and black Sheltie - that is, until she is summoned back to her childhood home after more than 20 years away. Fiercely loyal, acutely perceptive and guided by a herd dog’s instinct, Mack has a way of bringing out the best in his humans.

Thirty thousand years ago, ice was storming the planet. Among the species forced out of the trees and onto the steppes by the advancing cold was modern man, who was both predator and prey. No stranger to the experiences that make us human - a mother's love and a father's betrayal, tribal war and increasing famine, political intrigue and forbidden love, joy and hope and devastating loss - our ancestors competed for scant resources in a brutal landscape.

Publisher's Summary
Rick Stanton was a promising professional baseball player with dreams of playing in the major leagues and starting a family with his young wife, Francesca, when World War II changed everything. Rick returns from the war with his body broken and his dreams shattered. But it was not just body and spirit he sacrificed for the war. He and Francesca volunteered their beloved dog, Pax, for the Army's K-9 Corp, not knowing if they'd ever see him again.
Keller Nicholson is the soldier who fought the war with Pax by his side, and the two have the kind of profound bond that can only be forged in war. Pax is the closest Keller has to a sense of family, and he can't bear the thought of returning him to the Stantons. But Rick and Francesca refuse to give him up. Instead, an arrangement is made: Keller will work as Rick's live-in aide. And thus an unlikely family is formed, with steadfast Pax at the center. As they try to build a new life out of the ashes, Keller and Francesca struggle to ignore their growing attraction to each other, and Rick, believing that he can no longer give Francesca what she needs and wants, quietly plans a way out.
All three of them need healing. All three of them are lost. And in Susan Wilson's A Man of His Own, Pax, with his unconditional love and unwavering loyalty, may be the only one who can guide them home.

Real tears and smiles. A heartstring tugger!
This book brought out so much feeling. I had so many occasions of fear for the characters, and then wistfulness in what I wanted to happen.
Seeing the characters mature and deal with events that are still happening in today's world even though this originated in the 30s and 40s.
Sure wish it could have ended differently. Just wouldn't have been the same though. And the epilogue was fantastic.

Beautiful Story
This truly was a beautiful story. The Dynamics between the three human characters and the dog were so perfectly formed. I kept wondering how the author was going to end this without it crushing one of the characters. I can't say enough for this story. If you believe in loyalty and love, then you will want to read this book.

The story line is OK
Any additional comments?
Although the story line showed early promise, by the end it became boring & predictable. And the narration was terrible. The worst narration I've heard on an Audible book yet. One of the men sounded the entire time like he was reading the weather. I myself could have done a better job. It began to really irritate me after awhile.
