The bell on the front door jingles as we finish putting away the last of the books. Ruby’s eyes widen. “Oh no, what will they think of the empty front table?” she asks with mock horror. “Shut up.” I backhand her lightly and then take off to greet our customer. “Welcome in,” I say as I come around the corner. But when I see who it is, my steps come up short. “You.” My hands go to my hips. One side of his mouth hitches up and he gives me that easy, sexy smile. “And you.” “How did you find me?” My arms fall to my sides. It seems there’s no avoiding this guy. “I asked around.”
