Stella Bagwell - The Little Maverick Matchmaker

Clearing his throat, he said, “I’ve been thinking about our phone conversation, and I realize I wasn’t exactly helpful. I’d had a rough morning at the clinic and my mind was, well, a bit distracted.”

“That’s understandable. We all get like that from time to time.”

Not like him, Drew thought. For the past six years, he’d tried to function as a normal person while half of his mind was thinking about Evelyn, missing her and cursing the accident that had taken her away. It hadn’t been easy. It still wasn’t.

“You’re being kind and I don’t deserve that.”

She studied him with an odd look and Drew was glad she didn’t ask him to explain the comment that had slipped out of him as though it had a will of its own.

“Dr. Strickland, I’m sorry if my call alarmed you. That wasn’t my intention. All in all, I’d say Dillon is a bright, intelligent, well-rounded boy. And I enjoy having him in the library immensely. It’s just that he’s going a bit overboard with the books and the time he spends here. Some days he ignores his lunch recess and spends the break time in here with me. He really ought to be out running and playing with the other children. I’ve tried to encourage him to do just that, but he seems to want to talk.”
