EXCERPT / Chapter One – Part 4

Her grip on her luggage handle tightened. Her body tensed. She stared at the dog. He stared back at her. Then, drawing on the knowledge of animals she’d gained from working on nature documentaries, she averted her gaze ever so slightly. She didn’t want the dog to misinterpret her staring at him as a sign of aggression.

She searched her memory and was certain she’d never seen this dog before. She wasn’t sure if he was friendly or not. But they couldn’t just stand here trying not to stare at each other.

“Hi, boy.” She forced a smile.

His tail swished back and forth. That was a good sign.

The dog approached her. Gianna wasn’t sure what she should do, so she did nothing. Her heart continued to pound. As he drew nearer, her palms grew moist. He could probably sense her nervousness from a mile away. And yet his tail kept wagging as he grew closer.

And then he stopped in front of her. He sat down and gazed up at her. It was then that she noticed he had the kindest big brown eyes. She held out her hand to him and his dark nose sniffed it. She proceeded to run her hand over his head. He rubbed against her hand before dancing around in a circle.

It appeared they’d become fast friends. She breathed a sigh of relief. He might be rather big in size but she sensed by his bright eyes and his playful behavior that he wasn’t very old.

“Hi, buddy. What are you doing out here?” And then she realized how silly it was asking a dog a question. It wasn’t like he could answer her. But it seemed wrong not to speak to him, like she was ignoring him or something. “Do you have a collar?”

She knelt down and continued petting him. There was a depression in his fur as though he normally wore a collar, but there wasn’t one there now. Strange.

    Here in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas summer has arrived even though it’s still spring. After last week of rain, rain and more rain, it’s now sunny, humid and getting pretty warm by noon each day. We are fast approaching the 90 degree mark. After a dreary and cold winter of stay at home, I’m sure not going to complain about being outside where all the browns have turned to beautiful colors, the birds are putting on a show as they migrate and start families and it’s warm enough not to need a zillion layers of clothes.

    Can’t wait for the opportunity to read “Bound by a Ring & a Secret” which most definitely is on my TBR list.

    It is getting hotter and hotter here in North Carolina. We’ll be escaping to the mountains for some cooler weather and the beaches for some ocean breezes. Wish I owned an Italian Villa!
