It all started at the town's Holiday Charity Auction. I donated my services for a good cause. The services?
Those are a little sketchy.
Apparently I'm someone's idea of a local celebrity hunk because I play pro hockey.
The upshot is I was talked into donating my services for a date with the lucky highest bidder.
The lucky bidder? Carmela Rossi. She could be voted the least likely person in the entire town who should be bidding on the likes of me.
She's too young at 18, a senior in high school, and I'm way past high school by now in every way possible.
More importantly--I know, hard to believe something more important than a seasoned bachelor like myself on a date with a high school girl--she's a treasured (read: sheltered) daughter of the one family in town who hates me, hates my entire family in fact.
The Rossis and the Jennings are arch enemies, as in the Hatfields and McCoys, only without the weapons and killing. At least until now.
But Carmela happens to be very persuasive, so we have our date.
Fast forward past the debacle of the auction, the date and her high school graduation, and in spite of threats by her father and brothers to do me bodily harm or worse, that's when my judgment seems to waiver.
Because she's determined, gorgeous, smells like fish and has the kind of laugh I recorded to cheer me in my desperate moments, I can't help wanting to see her again. And again.
Carmela Rossi is the kind of treat--a Garden-of-Eden-Apple--that I'm having trouble resisting.
Please pray for our souls...
