“When you find someone who makes butterflies soar in your stomach, that’s something you can’t possibly ignore. If you do, you’re ignoring your destiny.”

Olivia Rawlings

Chapter Six

Charlotte made her way back to Tybee Island after spending an hour at the police department. The officers had treated her very kindly, asking her a few more questions about the events of last night and then showing her a book of mug shots. About halfway through the book, Charlotte had identified a possible suspect, although she really wasn’t certain due to the lengths he’d gone to in order to hide his face. The officers had seemed very satisfied with her ID of the suspect, subtly letting her know that he had a history of similar behavior toward female drivers.

She breathed a sigh of relief the moment Savannah House came into view. Sometimes she just liked to drive slowly past it so she could admire the graceful slope of the inn and the beautiful surroundings. Still—after all of these weeks and months—she couldn’t wrap her head around Miss Hattie’s inheritance. It was an extraordinary gift.

Charlotte walked the path toward the front entrance, stopping to greet a couple who was honeymooning at the inn. They were holding hands and looking like the quintessential lovebirds as they ventured out for an excursion. They looked so happy, Charlotte thought. And she knew Savannah House was playing a role in their contentment. It felt incredible to be giving their clientele a world-class experience.

As Charlotte entered Savannah House she smiled at the heart-shaped wreath hanging on the door. It added such a romantic vibe to the inn. Once she stepped inside she saw twinkling lights twined around the grand staircase and a roaring fire in the great room. Fancy was in decoration mode once again. She had been putting romantic hearts all over Savannah House in preparation for Valentine’s Day.

How was she going to tell the girls about last night? She didn’t want to worry anyone. And then there was the awkward part about spending time with Marc at Sal’s Diner. It had been a fun time. Charlotte couldn’t deny it, not even to herself. Marc was such a solid force. He was supportive and kind. And brave and caring. He’d given her a strong shoulder to lean on last night. But why was she so nervous to tell her best friends about it? Why did it feel as if it should be a secret?

Because you’re into him. You like him. Really really like him.

She pushed the thought away, not wanting to give it any credence even though she knew it was the absolute truth. She had feelings for Marc, a man she couldn’t be with under any circumstances.

“Charlotte.” Fancy’s voice drew her out of her troubled thoughts.

She felt guilty even looking into Fancy’s eyes. “Hey, Fancy.”

“Is there something you want to tell me?” Fancy asked.

Uh oh. Had she heard about her late night chow fest with Marc? That seemed almost impossible. Unless Marc had swung by here this morning and told the girls about the events of last night.
