I kissed her, and as I did, one of the guys from the city manager’s office walked by and said, “Get a hotel. And don’t think I’ll forget you’re moving us into the basement. Better make sure your lawns are up to code, ’cause I’ll be watching.”
“Hey, don’t make me move you guys into the bathrooms.”
He scoffed and mumbled to himself as he went down the stairs. Gates grinned at me. “You make friends wherever you go, don’t you?”
“It’s a gift.”
She wrapped her arms around my neck, and we stared into each other’s eyes.
“What do you think about dogs?” I said.
“What?”
“Dogs. I was thinking it’s time I got one.”
“Well, Adam mentioned something about wanting grandkids actually.”
“Let’s just start with a dog and see how he does, shall we?”
She grinned and kissed me, and it seemed like she was the only person in my world. And I knew I could be perfectly happy with that.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Victor Methos knew he would be a lawyer at the age of thirteen, when his best friend was interrogated by the police for over eight hours and confessed to a crime he didn’t commit.
After graduating from the University of Utah S. J. Quinney College of Law, Methos worked for a special kind of lawyer—the kind who put up neon signs and would do anything and everything to win. Afterward, he sharpened his teeth as a prosecutor for Salt Lake City before founding what would become the most successful criminal defense firm in Utah.
In ten years, Methos conducted more than one hundred trials. One particular case stuck with him, and it became the basis for his first major bestseller, The Neon Lawyer. Since that book’s publication, Methos has focused his work on legal thrillers and mysteries. He currently splits his time between Salt Lake City and Las Vegas and continues to defend the poor and the weak against the strong and the powerful.
