Blind Date Turned Proposal

The word ‘all’ felt somewhat elusive.

Josie snuggled in his arms, feeling a sense of relief and comfort. “I’m happy everything’s sorted out.”

She intentionally left out the phone call issue because she knew once the text message was sent successfully, Dexter would handle it.
