Silver Bells & Cat Tails — Patricia PacJac Carroll

Laine Griffin glared at the phone. Men. After Riley jilted her a week before her wedding, she'd exchanged her wedding vows for one that she wouldn't date for a year. She dove into her job of training dolphins at the aquarium and hid from the world.

Zak Russell loved animals and had traded his golf game to be a vet at his aunt's clinic. He was content to hide in the shadows. After all, he was socially inept and had heard the word dork on more than one occasion.

A blind date goes awry. Eyes are opened, and just maybe, Zak trades in his Clark Kent glasses to be superman.
