Always
You by Ruth Roberts
After
tragedy strikes, Diana Mathison finds herself back in her home town of Magnolia
Falls, sharing custody of her baby sister with her step sister. Reeling from
the death of their parents, the three sisters have to learn how to lean on each
other and live life without their two pillars of strength. Diana is full of
doubts in her ability to raise a little girl and run her father’s law firm. The
last thing she needs is to have Zack Connelly back in her life. The last time
she let him in she ended up hurt and broken hearted.
Zack
has given up on true love. It’s not for him and it’s certainly not with Diana
Mathison. He came back to Magnolia Falls to heal after losing his sweet wife
and their unborn child at the hands of a drunk driver. Hannah never had a
chance at the love and happiness she deserved, therefore neither should he. His
life plan is to take care of his sister and niece for as long as they need him,
and to be the best veterinarian the town has ever had. That’s enough for him…or
is it?
Excerpt 1:
She
leaned against the counter and began filling them out. “How much do I owe you?”
She asked.
“Dinner,”
he replied.
She
looked up at him with a raised brow. “Excuse me?”
“You
owe me the dinner you promised me ten years ago, with interest I’d say you owe
me somewhere around one hundred dinners.” He put his elbows on the counter
between them and leaned towards her, bringing their faces close together. “I’m
free Friday if you want to start chipping away at that debt.” He tucked a
strand of hair behind her ear.
She
stood up straight and pushed the completed forms toward him. “That should do
it.” She gathered up her purse and keys she had set on the counter. “I’ll thank
you now for the puppy because at two in the morning when it has me up with its
whining and howling, I will be anything but thankful. In fact, I will probably
be cursing you.”
She
smiled, but it didn’t quite have the same flash as before, and he felt a web of
disappointment she hadn’t responded the way he wanted her to. But he wasn’t
planning on giving up that easily. “You’re welcome. And if you need any help at
two in the morning or just want the satisfaction of knowing I’m not getting any
sleep either, call me.”
“I
just might do that. See you around, Zack.”
“Sure
thing,” he said as she walked through the door.
She
stopped, turned around, and leaned against the door jam. A smile touched the
corners of her lips. “Dinner’s at seven. Don’t be late.”
