Saturday Snippet: There Was More to That Exchange

The following snippet was taken from

Aaron's Annulment Bride

Sweethearts of Jubilee Springs series, Book 3

by Zina Abbott

Andrea studied the woman’s face and experienced an “ah-ha” moment. She looked familiar because she could see the resemblance between her and her son.

Aaron picked up where he left off. “This is Miss Andrea Dalton. Miss Dalton, may I introduce you to my mother, Mrs. Desdemona Brinks?”

“So nice to meet you, Miss Dalton.” Desi stuck out her hand to shake.

Andrea felt a surge of panic as she looked first at her plate in one hand and a glass of water in the other. What was the correct thing to do now? She sighed with relief when Desi reached across the table and patted her forearm.

“Please call me Desi. Everyone here does.”

Andrea thought she detected a mischievous look in the woman’s eye as she turned her attention to her son.

“So, Aaron, are you having a good time?”

Andrea watched Aaron as he gave his mother a pointed look.

“Yes, Ma. It’s been an enjoyable evening.”

“Good.”

Andrea looked down as she took a sip of water. There was more to that exchange than what met the ear. She suspected Aaron had not wanted to come this evening any more than she had.
