Chapter Twenty-Six Ash “It’s a river rescue?” Evie asked. Shay looked over at her and nodded. Evie’s brow knitted with worry, and she leaned over to pick up a puppy from the pile gamboling around on the floor. After the emergency call came in, Shay had asked if I wanted to go check on the puppies with her. Of course I did. Anything for a distraction. Over an hour had passed since then with no updates. We were in the reception area at the vet clinic with a blanket spread in the middle of the floor for the puppies. Evie had joined us after the restaurant closed. Shay caught my eyes, concern held in hers. I was probably as worried about Mack as Evie was. Evie had lost her twin sister in the very same accident that haunted Mack. He never spoke of it, but Evie seemed more at peace about it
