“As they walked out the door, Rick said, “You seem to be enjoying this case much more than any of the others.” She looked up at him with a sober expression and said in a business-like manner, “I enjoy all my cases, Rick. This one isn’t any different.” He chuckled. “Yeah, sure. Since you feel that way, why don’t I read those letters for you? Then you could work on something else.” As they stood at the elevator, waiting for it to open, she said, “You wouldn’t be interested. I’m sure of it.” “But the last case we had, you assigned me to read this guy’s journal. I found it to be quite interesting.” She glanced at him and saw a knowing grin on his face. “Okay. If you must know, I’m really enjoying this case and the letters are… well…” “Romantic?” he teased. “Of course, I wouldn’t be interested in something like that. Is that what you think?” He winked at her. “After all, I’m just a guy. Men wouldn’t be interested in a bit of romance. Right?” RomanceTravel GuideMissing PersonRomantic Cozy Mystery Book:Her Lost Love Source: Her Lost Love
“After a moment, Amelia heard Rick humming as he marched down the ramp. It was a familiar tune. She raised a curious brow as she listened to him and then it dawned on her. “Singing in the Rain!” she exclaimed. “How do you know that song?” He glanced over his shoulder and smiled. “I had sisters. Remember?” And with that statement, he burst into song: “I’m singing in the rain, just singing in the rain. What a glorious feeling’! I’m happy again.” AlligatorsPiBayouMissing PersonCrawdadsRomantic Cozy MysteryPrivate InvestigatorsMarfan S Syndrome Book:Mystery on the Bayou Source: Mystery on the Bayou
“You married me for my brains? I can’t believe it.” He grinned. “Well, among other things.” “My charming personality?” He chuckled. “Not exactly. You have the nicest looking legs ever.” “What?” “Hey! I can’t help it. I guess I’m just a leg man. Personality comes in second. Brains are third.” “Brains are third?” she said in mock disappointment. “So why did you marry me?” “Hmmm.” Amelia tapped his lips. “Your sweet kisses were the main reason. The rest of you came as a package deal.” “The rest of me?” he said incredulously. “Well, at least I’m a good kisser. I can live with that.” LouisianaAlligatorsPiMissing PersonCrawdadsRomantic Cozy MysteryMarfan S Syndrome Book:Mystery on the Bayou Source: Mystery on the Bayou
“She struggled with all her might, but he was much too heavy and strong. With a sigh, Amelia finally said, “You win.

“After a long while, Rick cleared his throat and pulled over to the side of the road. He then turned to her and said, “Amelia sweetie, a lot of problems are caused because of a lack of communication. When you try to guess what the other is thinking, then that’s when you get into trouble. If we communicate, find time for one another, don’t take each other for granted, and even share responsibilities, it will bring us closer.” “Share responsibilities?” He nodded. “Sure. A man who thinks he’s too good to share with the chores needs to reevaluate his relationship with his wife.” LouisianaHoneymoonAlligatorsNewlywedsBayouMissing PersonCrawdadsRomantic Cozy MysteryMarfan S SyndromePis Book:Mystery on the Bayou Source: Mystery on the Bayou
“He strummed a few chords and then sang: You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You’ll never know dear, how much I love you. Please don’t take my sunshine away. Rick sang one more verse, and when he was done, he winked at Amelia and smiled.” LouisianaHoneymoonAlligatorsNewlywedsBayouMissing PersonCrawdadsRomantic Cozy MysteryPrivate InvestigatorsMarfan S SyndromePis Book:Mystery on the Bayou Source: Mystery on the Bayou
