Seven Times He Chose Her Dog Over Us

From the back cover

After Heath Renwick abandons his wife Raven and their daughter Maisie for Celeste Worthing's dog for the seventh time, mother and daughter quietly learn their lesson. He parades around with Celeste and the dog, tears up Maisie's favorite sketchbook to line the dog's bed, and gives the master bedroom to Celeste and Prince, packing the family's things into two suitcases. When Prince chases Maisie down a flight of stairs and she lands in the ER with a concussion, Heath only shows up after the fact.

Raven stays calm through it all. She tells him Maisie doesn't need to call him Dad anymore, and she already has plane tickets to Eraly; in five days, they will have nothing to do with each other. But Heath keeps choosing Celeste and the dog, even as Maisie shrinks from him and calls him Mr. Renwick, and as Raven collapses with acute gastric bleeding.

When Prince falls into the pool, Celeste blames Raven, and Heath orders her to cook for the dog until it eats. It finally does, then bites her hand until blood runs down her fingers. Heath's first concern is whether Prince chipped a tooth.
