struggled with his emotions. Finally, he nodded. “That’s freaking perfect.”
She laughed as he scooped her up and carried her out of the living room, then thrilled at the rascally bad-boy grin on his face as he opened the door with his hip.
“You know we have responsibilities now,” he said before tossing her lightly onto the bed and landing next to her. He swiftly divested them both of their clothes, took care of protection, and pulled her under him, as they grinned at each other like a couple of silly, out-of-control, lovesick loons or…dogs.
“Yes, but we can check on them a little later,” she gasped as goose bumps rushed up her arms and pebbled her nipples. Wow. Just from feeling his weight on her.
He nipped her earlobe and looked down into her eyes, then lifted her hips as he slid deep inside. “Sounds like we have a plan.”

Six months later Callie was in the stands watching Owen and Jill compete in their very first agility competition. Tilly was thriving and growing into a beautiful, albeit smaller-sized Great Dane, and the construction on their loft was complete. She and her three friends, her parents, and her brother were all yelling their fool heads off.
Jill moved quickly but surely as Owen ran beside her and gave her the hand signals. The clock on the leader board ticked along. She was so close…yes! She beat the time. As Callie clapped, the leader board changed and for a moment she stared as she saw her name. Callie, will you marry me?
Harper squealed and hugged her. She watched in stunned amazement as Owen and Jill trotted up to her. He stopped and sent Jill the rest of the way. She had a turquoise bag in her mouth. Inside the bag, Callie found a turquoise ring box. With shaking hands, she opened it to reveal the most beautiful ring. A round cut diamond with little diamonds all around it, the setting a brushed platinum.
She looked up to find Owen standing there. The audience watched them. “You asked me to marry you at your first competition?”
“Yes. In front of all these people, your family and friends. I want the whole world to know you’re mine. I love you, Callie.”
He took the ring out of the box and slipped it on her finger. “It’s perfect for working with dogs,” she said. “No chance of it snagging on collars.”
“Exactly. A sporty ring for my girl-next-door.”
Jill woofed and everyone laughed as Callie threw her arms around Owen.
She whispered in his ear, “I love you, too, and my answer is yes!”
Then she kissed him. Right in front of a whole stadium full of very interested and amused people.

About the Author
Zoe Dawson is the alter ego of multi-published, bestselling author Karen Anders. Karen started her career because her grandmother gave her a book to read. That book made her fall in love with romance and started her on the trek to get published. She achieved that goal in 1996 with the publication of Jennifer's Outlaw for Silhouette. Even with many books under her belt, she can't wait for that next idea, that next exquisite sentence and, of course, the next hero and heroine who fall in love.
