Three Little Words
“The roof was new and there was a pretty garden in front. A bike leaned against the front porch. Reese’s, she thought.
She picked up the bottle of wine she’d brought, along with a plate of cookies she’d purchased at the bakery. She walked toward the front door and told herself there was no reason to be nervous. She’d been in much more dangerous situations than this one. No one was going to try to kill her, and national security secrets weren’t on the line. She could relax.
A statement easier to ...say than live.
The front door opened before she could ring the bell. Reese Hendrix grinned up at her.
“Hi,” he said. “Please tell my dad I need a puppy.”
His easygoing grin relaxed her. He was a good kid and she liked having him in class. She would think about that instead of his father, she told herself. Or the fact that she hadn’t been on a date since she was seventeen. Her boyfriend had gone to jail her senior year. Then she’d been accepted into the army. It had seemed foolish to date anyone she worked with.MoreLess
