Dixie and Dottie

              "Thankful"
       Shelly Shepard Gray

Orphaned at age 10, Aden Reese was taken in by Christina's parents who raised him as one of their own.  Even before the day when Christina fell through the ice and almost drown but Aden saved her life, Christina had been special to him.  Neither one regarded the other as a sibling which is how Christina's parents looked at them.  Not understanding Christina's reluctance to "court" they keep pushing her into it.  Aden, not wanting to repay their kindness by revealing his feelings for Christina, moves out of the house upsetting everyone.  Even though they are no longer seeing each other every day neither can forget the other.  So will Aden ever tell his true feelings?
