A Chance Event

An Event Planner. A Chance Encounter. Possibilities. In the middle of a snowstorm, Dr. Martin DelaHardt finds a woman who's been mugged in the middle of a snowstorm. As he helps her, he forges a bond with her little dog that won't leave her. The devotion of the animal tells Martin the woman is special. However, it doesn't explain the unexpected attraction he feels for her the first time their eyes meet. He's returned home after five years abroad with a humanitarian health organization to recharge and reevaluate his life, not find a lover. Charlene is amazed by Martin's attention. No one worries about her. She's the one who takes care of others. His eyes seem to devour her and comfort her at the same time. Having given up on the romance game years ago, she shakes off her attraction. Valentine's Day is less than three weeks away and there's definitely no room for a handsome doctor on her agenda. At least there wasn't.
