Several hours later, I opened my eyes to a sunny morning.

I knew right away that Griff was gone. It was too cool in the bed, for starters. That man’s body was like a furnace. And it was too quiet. Disappointment sliced through me, even if I knew he and I didn’t have a snuggling-and-out-to-breakfast relationship.

We didn’t have a relationship at all.

That’s when loneliness set in. Hard.

This always happened to me, too. It was why I didn’t have many one-night stands. It wasn’t that sex embarrassed me. I wasn’t ashamed. It’s just that if something was good, I wanted more of it. Like a good brown butter sauce or salted caramels.

It was probably a good thing that Griff had bailed already this morning. I’d have probably freaked him out by suggesting we get together again tonight. And I wasn’t in Vermont for Griffin Shipley. I was here for me.

In the little bathroom, the shower squeaked to life. When I stepped under the spray, the water was warm and steady. So at least I had that going for me. Today I needed to find someone to sell me both fingerling potatoes and honey. (But not together, because ew.) My job could be worse. I could be digging ditches. I could be the dishwasher at a diner.

Though if I effed up one more job for BPG, that dishwashing gig was a possibility.

But first, coffee.

Once showered and tidy, I gathered my farming notes and phone. Keys in hand, I opened the door to my little one-room cabin, almost stepping on a note that had been left just inside my door.

Princess—wish we could have breakfast, but I’m off to milk 50 cows. You called the house phone last night, which means I don’t have your number. Here’s mine. 802.228.4330. —A.G.S.
