EXCERPT:
“I bet he didn’t go because
you were going with someone else. Ross always reminded me of a devoted, old
spaniel. He adored the ground you walked on, and I think he still does.”
Kara chuckled when she
remembered Ross’s lovesick behavior. “That’s a pretty good description. Every
time I spoke to him I expected him to duck his head and blush. One word from me
and he was too tongue-tied to put two syllables together.”
BLURB:

ReplyDeleteI love stories like this!
Ross seems to be the difficult type to handle, in the sense that he is too deep in it too fast. I wonder how it will turn out.
