She flipped a couple of pictures over and showed him a picture of the three friends on the North Carolina beach in bikinis a year or two back. “Really? Have you seen a wolf with a full mane? Or a cat with a long muzzle?” Do you think that snaggle tooth is attractive?” Ronnie handed Shaw the picture of her, Sissy Mae, and her cousin lounging around many years ago after the Fourth of July family hunt.
