In the bustling world of corporate power plays and high-stakes business deals, Olivia Hartman reigns supreme. As the youngest female executive at her prestigious firm, she's known for her sharp mind, relentless drive, and unwavering dedication. But beneath her steely exterior lies a heart yearning for companionship. Olivia's only joy comes from her loyal labradoodle, Charlie-a charming, brown doodle that was surrendered to the local Edinburg pound.
Unbeknownst to Olivia, Charlie is no ordinary dog. He is, in fact, Duke Charles Ashford, a nobleman cursed by an envious sorceress to live as a labradoodle until he can earn true love's acceptance in both his canine and human forms. For years, Charles has navigated his new life, awaiting the day someone might see beyond his furry exterior to the man trapped within.
One fateful evening, Olivia stumbles upon an antique shop while walking Charlie. Drawn to a peculiar, shimmering locket, she purchases it on a whim, unaware of its magical properties. As she places the locket around her neck, a series of strange events begin to unfold, gradually revealing the truth about her beloved pet.
With the help of the enchanted locket, Charles finds himself able to intermittently transform back into his human form. He must now navigate the delicate task of revealing his true identity to Olivia without scaring her away. As Olivia starts to piece together the mystery, she is both shocked and intrigued by the handsome Duke who emerges from her dog's familiar eyes.
As they embark on a journey to break the curse, Olivia and Charles discover a deep connection that transcends appearances. Their partnership blossoms into a romance that challenges Olivia's preconceived notions of love and loyalty. Together, they delve into the secrets of Charles's past, confront the sorceress who cursed him, and explore the possibility of a future beyond the confines of magic and corporate life.
Doodle Duke is a modern retelling of Swan Lake, blending elements of fantasy and romance in a heartwarming story about breaking curses, finding true love, and embracing the unexpected. Through trials and enchantments, Olivia and Charles must prove that love is not just about seeing with the eyes but understanding with the heart.
