****Being dumped right before the holidays is the worst. The last thing I wanted to do was head off to a big family dinner where I could hear all about why I was suddenly single. My mom wasn't taking no for an answer. The last person I expected to see was the one man I'd always wanted, the one who'd never given me a second look. But there he was, eyes smiling with promise, right in front of me.
Could this be happening? God, I hope so.

Thankfully, she had the presence of mind to keep a tight enough grip on the handle. She was also thankful she realized it was Bruce who had greeted her. The man was apparently a silent walker."Don't do that!" Meg shouted.Bruce put his hands up in a mock surrender pose. "Sorry. That wasn't on purpose. Please don't throw anything at me again.""I'm not living that down for a while, am I?" Meg asked."Not for at least a week," Bruce said.Pulling out one of the kitchen table chairs, Bruce sat and leaned back. He considered putting his feet up on the table but he thought better of it. Tony had never cared about where he put his feet up, but something told him Meg wouldn't be the same way."Did you sleep well?" Meg asked."Yeah. Slept pretty good. Very comfortable couch, by the way," Bruce commented. "By the by, how long have you been foster parenting?" he asked.The question seemed a little out of the blue but it was an easy one to answer."A little more than ten years," Meg answered."Any complaints?" Bruce continued to question.Meg placed the cereal box down on the table before looking up at Bruce. "Is this an interrogation?" Meg asked.Bruce gave a small shrug. "Yes. I guess so. All I want to do is ease my mind a bit more.""I don't think I'd be in the foster care system if I wasn't proven a good caretaker.""Well, systems make mistakes. Things slip their notice. Small things like bruises under shirt sleeves, dark circles under a kids eyes because the kid can't sleep well on some nights in fear of what can happen..."The humor was gone from Bruce's face and was replaced with a quiet rage. It was a look that unsettled Meg.She hoped that she would not have to see that look again. Or at the very least, be the one to cause him to have that expression.Download and discover why readers are raving about Lily Taffel.Scroll up and get the book now! Views: 574
