Chapter 84: Therapy Session

At a round table set for six, Jenny nibbled her turkey wrap, watching as Cole engaged in casual conversation with the father of one of her fellow residents. Glancing her way, he gave her a grin, dark eyes sparkling as he told the other man about his horse-training business.

Just the thought of the conversation they were about to have rattled her to her core. Over the course of the last sixty days, she’d spent time learning skills to overcome the trauma she’d suffered, how to release the fear that was the root of her PTSD, ways to combat the panic when it surfaced. She’d learned a great deal about herself, and the time had come to share that knowledge with Cole.
