Grinning, they both nodded.
Nick rose and presented his hand. She fitted hers within it, and he assisted her up while Bella hopped down from the sofa and trotted toward the girls. He leaned toward her ear and whispered, “I could get used to this every night.”
“Me, too.”
Dear Readers,
This was a tough book to write with a lot of twists and turns. But this story is a special one to me because of the dog, Bella. There is a real Bella that is part corgi and bull terrier. She is loving and a great pet for a family with children. My two granddaughters picked her out at the shelter, and it was the best decision. The photo of the dog on the cover is from my granddaughter who took many pictures of her dog until I found one that would work on the cover. Getting a dog to sit still can be hard work. Well worth it for me.
Best wishes,
Margaret Daley
