My greatest triumph? Keeping my life and my feelings under control. My greatest trial? How I’m starting to FEEL for Daniel.
Is it a Trial or Triumph?
I hate men. I know, I know–hate is a strong word, so let’s say I strongly STRONGLY dislike most men. Only a few, like Tito, have proven themselves worthy of trust.
So when Daniel, the new youth minister in our quirky small town, needs my help … Well, he’s got a long way to go to earn my trust. Especially since he’s always smiling.
C’mon, no one needs to smile or chuckle that much!
But *shrug* I may give him some leeway. Turns out he wants to raise money to help families interested in adopting with a Fundraising Valentine’s Banquet.
And so, yeah, I’ll be helping him on top of handling my family law cases. It’s a cause dear to my heart. But don’t worry about me. Pesky things like emotions haven’t gotten in my way in a LONG time.
But nothing prepares me for what happens at my roommate’s Vegas wedding OR my light bulb moment that tips me off as to why Daniel seems familiar. Even worse, why his smug grin might be just a little appropriate.
You know what’s the REAL trial … and triumph?
You know what else isn’t helping? Getting caught in a freak ice storm. With Daniel. And he actually seems genuine, like if I let my guard down and let myself feel …
Nope nope nope. Not going there.
Tito always says there’s no bad from which good doesn’t come, and I hope he’s right. Because maybe the reason I’m starting to feel things for Daniel is because …
Good grief, I need to get back on track!
