Before the Sunset (Cottonwood Cove, #4)

by Laura Pavlov

“Tell me something fun about one another that nobody knows. I mean, you’ve known one another your entire lives. I’m guessing you know each other better than anyone.” I glanced at Reese and turned my attention back to Lane. “Reese’s favorite color is citrine.” I chuckled. “Everyone gives her shit about it, saying she should just say that her favorite color is yellow, but I never did because I know the reason.” “And what’s the reason?” Lane leaned forward, completely invested. “We’d race daylight every day when we were growing up. We’d stay outside until just before sunset, and during that last hour, she’d always look up at the sky and point to all the colors. Man, this went on for so many summers over the years. And she’d point out this particular shade of yellow and tell me that it was citrine. She’d call it a gift from the sun.” Reese laughed. “Good memory, Finn. He’s also being modest because that wasn’t the only place that I would see my favorite color.” “Where else did you see it?” Lane asked.
