“SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK?”

It didn’t take Harper long to track down Zander. He put up a fight when she dragged him away from his under-aged fan club, but once she launched into the information Lacey had to share he was understandably intrigued.

“Really?” Zander gave Colin a long look with fresh eyes. “Do you think he was putting on an act?”

Harper shrugged. “I don’t know. That’s the question of the day, though. Do you think he was putting on an act?”

“I’ve never understood that kid’s wide-eyed shtick anyway. I always think he’s putting on an act. Now that I know this, though, I can’t help but wonder if it’s a different act from what I initially envisioned.”

“You and me both.” Harper was lost in thought as she watched Colin high-five one of his friends. “Do you think I should call Jared?”

“Or you could just wait to tell him at the tour tonight.”

“But he might want to follow Colin.”

“Colin is registered for the tour,” Zander volunteered.

That was news to Harper. “He is?”

“Oh, come on.” Zander rolled his eyes. “You know Colin’s pattern. He goes on at least three tours every season. He’s completely in love with you.”

“I didn’t realize he was going to be part of the tour tonight,” Harper admitted. The news made her uneasy, although she couldn’t put her finger on exactly why. “I guess I can wait to tell Jared. We should keep an eye on him for the rest of the afternoon, though.”

“If he stays here where the food is, I have no problem with that. If he takes off and forces me to abandon the party before Charlene Dennehy cuts that delicious-looking chocolate cake, I’m totally going to melt down.”

“Fair enough. I—” Harper didn’t get a chance to finish her statement because a body moved in at her right and caused her to jolt. When she recognized the face that was leering at her, her heart rate increased rather than decreased. Gary Conner always had that effect on her, though. He was a walking advertisement for raised blood pressure. “Hey, Gary.”

“Ms. Harlow.” Gary didn’t look any happier to see Harper and Zander than they were to see him. “Fancy meeting you here.”

Harper cocked an eyebrow, confused. “Why is that fancy?”

“Because this isn’t a cemetery.”

Harper glanced toward Zander for help. “Do you understand what he’s saying?”

Zander shook his head. “I haven’t understood a word he’s said since he showed up for his tour. You’re the front man of this operation. I’m leaving you to deal with him.”

Harper made a grab for Zander’s arm, but he managed to evade her. “Don’t you dare leave me, Zander!” she hissed, frustration bubbling up.

“I’ll be around,” Zander called out. “I’ll keep an eye on you know who.” He offered an exaggerated wink. “You handle Gary and I’ll handle the rest. I think that’s a perfect tradeoff.”

Harper could think of a few other things to call it. “Zander!”

Zander didn’t bother looking over his shoulder and when Harper risked a glance at Gary she found him standing with his arms folded over his chest and an expectant look on his face.
