The Pecking Order is a warm, banter-filled Dalton romantic comedy series where unusual pets accidentally become the world’s most effective matchmaking system. From indoor chickens in polka-dot diapers to anxious emus, gremlin ferrets, ethically cared-for pythons, and strategically intelligent goats, each book pairs practical, emotionally guarded men with someone who challenges their definition of normal—and quietly reshapes their understanding of love.
