As the hot water beat down on her back, Ellie couldn’t get Josh’s invitation out of her mind. Was it so hard for him to ask her to go with him that he needed to argue it out with himself? She got why. They hadn’t known each other very long, actually less than a week. A woman would have to be out of her mind to accept his offer. Yet, here she was contemplating doing that exact thing.

He was right, she did trust him. Maybe it was because the very first time she laid eyes on him, he was saving her life. Even now, when she was feeling low, he appeared out of nowhere. She’d half dreaded getting up this morning to face the mess she’d left last night. But Josh once again had come to her rescue.

She wished Frank was here now. He’d tell her . . . not to overthink it. That was something she did all the time. Her own thoughts got in her way. She always told Frank he was a hypocrite because all he did was analyze everything. But he didn’t want her living that way. I can see why. You don’t live, you just plan.

She would take Josh up on his offer, but she wasn’t going to tell him until tonight. Letting him stew on it wasn’t very nice, but there was nothing wrong with playing a bit hard to get. Besides, she still had some questions for him. Like where would she be staying?

Ellie wasn’t as innocent as Josh believed her to be, but she didn’t sleep around. She dated when time permitted, but the only serious boyfriend she ever had was during her college years. They had spoken about marriage and a family, but that ended when they each chose their career.

That was Ellie’s problem, she always thought about the business, about her career. That was good in one way, but it didn’t give her much of a love life. What was the worst that could happen by going away with Josh for one night? They could find out they don’t romantically care for each other.

Yeah, it’s too late for that.

Or maybe she would learn that he snored so loud the windows rattled. Maybe on his turf, she would find him to be an arrogant SOB and never want to see him again.

Or maybe I’ll have a wonderful time and it will start something . . . nice.

She could stay in the shower all morning running through different scenarios, but her mind was already made up. Ellie didn’t have any more time to dilly-dally. She could hear her alarm going off near her bed, reminding her it was almost eight. Even if she got out of the shower now, she wouldn’t be dressed and ready to unlock the door and open for business.

Damn.

She moved so fast she wasn’t sure all the soap was out of her hair. It didn’t really matter. She should be glad she managed to get up and shower.
