"Hey,
there." He crouched down and brushed his masculine fingers through the
corkscrew curls on the top of Cookie's head. "What's your name?"
Violet wondered
if she should tell him that Cookie couldn't hear him. She and Bob had found out
days after they rescued her from the local animal shelter that she was hearing
impaired. Her previous owners had probably abandoned her because of it. Violet
had often wondered how they could have rejected such a precious animal. Cookie
was nothing but love and affection. But then again, if they hadn't given her
up, she never would have come into their lives. What would Violet have done if
Cookie hadn't been there after Bob was gone? And now that Sydney was away, having Cookie there made the
loneliness less burdensome. "Her name is Cookie."
"Hi, there,
Cookie." The man reached under her chin and brushed her soft fur.
Cookie's tail
wagged faster, and her mouth dropped open in a smile.
"I hate to
tear my dog away like this," said Violet. "She really loves to be petted,
but I have to go. I have an appointment, and I'm running late."
"I'm
sorry." The man rose to his feet.
His tall, lean
body and handsome face had caught Violet's attention since the first time she had
seen him. She had often found herself watching him without wanting to. Standing
there now, the sunlight bathed his sandy blond hair, causing its natural
highlights to shine like gold.
He wasn't the
youngest of men. His face had been weathered by time, but he still had a
youthful appearance.
