When Justine Diamond met football player Zachary Wayne aboard a cruise ship, it was like a sweet dream--and just as unreal. As fast as she fell in love, he disappeared. And she thought she would never see him again... But Zack didn't leave her. His sudden departure was due to an emergency. Now he just has to convince Justine of this--if he can find her first. But Justine is not so willing to take chances, let along grant second ones. And when Zack waltzes into the Nebraska pet shop owned by Justine, he has to win her trust--to win her heart. Perhaps a little bird or two will help him...
