Chapter 16

“Stanley! Get in the car!” I yelled to my black lab. Out of all the dogs I had, this one was just out of his puppy stage, and for some reason, was taking longer than usual to train. I worked with the little bugger day in and day out, and he was still the naughtiest dog I’d ever had.

I rotated which dog I took to work every day, and the ones left at home were taken out by the dog walker. It really boosted their socialization to come to the office and be around people and other animals, although they were kept out of the examination area—I couldn’t have them catching anything from other sick animals.

Stanley finally tore himself away from whatever stinky thing he was smelling and hopped into the backseat of the car when I started the engine. He was smart enough to know that meant his ride was leaving, and if he wanted dinner and a warm place to sleep, that he’d better get with the program.

So he clearly wasn’t dumb. Just hard-headed.

All day I’d been looking forward to my dinner that night with Maizy. In fact, I’d been looking forward to it since the day she’d come in with her kooky sister and rat named Cher. Beautiful, together women were hard as hell to come by, and I didn’t want to let this one slip through my fingers if I had anything to say about it.

I got home and put Stanley out on the terrace to play with the other dogs. That way, they’d be out of the way while I was making dinner. I wanted to put on a nice spread—tasty, but not too fancy—so I planned to make the spaghetti and meatballs dinner my mom had taught me. It was pretty much always a crowd pleaser.

I knew she’d like my apartment, too. When my parents had passed away, they left me a small chunk of change, which I’d turned into a down payment on a pretty nice New York apartment. It wasn’t a palace by any stretch of the imagination, but it had two levels with access to a huge rooftop terrace. Not bad for a vet from Smalltown, USA. My only regret was that my parents had not lived to see it, nor how successful my vet practice had become.

The only thing missing in my life? A nice woman to share it with.

Sure, there were tons of women in New York. And I had plenty of dates. Just not very many who I wanted to see a second time. And even fewer who I wanted to see a third or fourth time. Actually, there were pretty much none who I wanted to see a fourth time, now that I thought about it. I don’t think I’d had a fourth date with the same woman since I’d been in veterinary school.

Maizy was different, though. I mean, of course I didn’t know her very well. Actually, I didn’t know her at all, if I were to be honest about it.
