I had hoped Mama would surprise me when I told her about Nate and express joy that I’d found someone wonderful and maybe even ask to meet him. But no, she said it’s too early to have the feelings I have and that I need to wait for a while.

I’m not sure if Sara understands what I see in Nate, but then again, she’s only met him once. I had to pick up the disclosure statement from the bank, so I brought her with me, hoping she could get to know him—at least a little bit. Unfortunately, he was busy with clients, so he didn’t have a chance to chat.

“He seems a bit stuffy,” Sara says. “I agree with Mama. You need to give it some time before you say you’re in love.”

I pull my head back and lift my eyebrow as I wag a finger in front of her face. She hates that. “Wait just a minute there, sis. It’s not like you dated Justin for years and years before you eloped.”

She bobs her head right back at me. “But don’t forget, I’ve known him most of my life.”

I want to tell her she never really knew him until they got married, but I’m not in the mood for an argument. What I really want to do is play some happy music and dance because I have a date with Nate tomorrow night.

My silence must have worried her because she closes the distance between us and puts her hand on my shoulder. “I’m sorry, Sally. I know what it’s like to be crazy about someone and have other people try to ruin it for you.”

“No one can ruin what I’m feeling. You might be right, since I’ve never dated a guy more than a few times. This might not be love, but I definitely feel something I’ve never felt before.”

She grins. “Or maybe it is love. Who am I to say it’s not?”

That’s my Sara. I give her a big grin. “Okay, so what should I wear?”

She taps her index finger on her chin. “Where are y’all going?”

“He says we can go anywhere I want.”

Sara’s face lights up. “Why don’t you pick the Purple Parrot?”

I shrug. “I’m more in the mood for Mack’s.”

“Seriously?” She rolls her eyes. “You just don’t want to dress up, do you?”

“I’ll dress a little nicer.” An idea pops into my head. “Speaking of dressing for a date, do you want to help me pick out something to wear?”

“You have enough new clothes in your closet to start your own boutique. Why do you need help?” Before I have a chance to respond, she’s on her way to my room and heads straight for the closet.

“How about this?” She pulls out the ecru sweater and holds it up.

I shake my head. “I’ve already worn that twice.”

A look of amusement washes over her as she makes a couple more attempts. Finally, she replaces the last outfit, turns to me, and holds out her arms. “Why don’t
