Puppy Love Christmas Kiss oleh C. Coal

Each Wednesday morning they take the bus--the lonely graduate student, the Marine trying to start a new life in the corporate world, the elderly woman on her way to the senior center, and the exhausted single mother and her daughter--but they never interact. Not until the day tragedy strikes and brings these five strangers together.

This story is part of the Puppy Love series of short stories about puppies bringing two people together to find their happily ever after.
