Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 219

Dennis Williams’s eyes glinted with a quiet intensity as he lifted his glass and clinked it gently against hers.

The crisp ring echoed through the air, so pleasing it seemed to wash away the evening’s earlier troubles.

After dinner, Dennis insisted on driving everyone home himself.
