That Dog Won't Hunt (Dearing Family Series)
“The afternoon was hotter than a billy goat in a pepper patch. But Ben had been playing great—ahead of the others by five strokes. This game was in the bag.
Ben’s cell phone rang. It was Mama, sounding very worried. “Christina’s all upset and won’t talk to any of us. She’s holed up in her room, just won’t come out. I think you should come home.”
Oh, no. Ben’s nerves prickled. “What happened?”
Dad caught the concern in his voice and shot him a silent question—something wrong?
Mama launched into a... long explanation that started with Penny howling and ended with an argument between Christina and Jess. Ben stared down the course toward the fourteenth hole, his mouth open.
“Jess argued with Christina?” After he’d warned his sister? Anger wrapped around his chest. He’d strangle her.
“Well, she did get a little carried away over the lobsters. But actually”—Mama hesitated—“she tried to apologize. Sounds like Christina wouldn’t accept it.”
What? Christina bent over backwards to please everybody.MoreLess
