“I like her,” Charity said as they drove toward the bridge to return to town.

“She is nice, isn’t she?” Kara agreed.

“Though it’s sort of amazing that her son is fifteen years old and she’s never learned to cook,” Maddy said.

“Not everyone cooks,” Charity said. “My mother’s gone her entire life without knowing how to feed herself. And Marcy Curtis said that Claire and her son lived with her mom, who died this past year after a lengthy bout with cancer. Maybe she’d been their family cook.”

“Well, we’ll still have to get her up to speed,” Maddy decided. “If I have to give her private lessons in her house.”

“Well, if I were you I’d wait until after Lucas replaces that ancient stove,” Sedona said. “Maybe it’s a good thing she doesn’t cook, because she could well burn the place down… .

“That was clever how you worked your way into sneakily inviting her to Thanksgiving dinner,” she said to Kara.

“I wasn’t being sneaky. I was totally telling the truth about inviting people who don’t have family.”

“Ah, but I grew up Catholic,” Maddy said, “where we’re taught all about the sin of omission. Which you pretty much committed by not mentioning that Dillon Slater happens to be the other person you invited to dinner.”

“It was also clever how you conveniently failed to mention that he asked you to invite her,” Charity pointed out.

“So? And here I thought you, of all people, would approve of matchmaking,” Kara shot back. “Is there anyone but Claire Templeton left in town without a dog or cat?”

“There are a few holdouts,” the vet said dryly. “And I do approve. Which was why I was complimenting you on how you slipped it in.”

Kara’s phone, which she’d stuck in the cup holder, rang again. She glanced down at the caller ID and grinned.

“Would you take that,” she asked Sedona, who was riding shotgun, “and tell Coach Slater that his date for Thanksgiving is set?”
