TY REALIZED BY the look on Juliette’s face that his showing up unannounced was a complete surprise. He kept the smile on his face, even though the look he shot Adam promised revenge.

When the guys had found out about his date with Juliette, he should have known they’d set him up, telling him they wanted to stop by the new hangout, conveniently leaving out the fact that the women were there. He’d never admit it, but he was glad they did.

As the group began to mingle, he took a seat beside Juliette. “I think we were set up.”

Juliette’s gaze passed over each person and she shook her head sorrowfully. “And I thought they were such nice people.”

Ty laughed, relieved that she wasn’t miffed at him for showing up out of the blue.

“I should have known something was up. Adam was acting weird.”

“None of the women were.”

He met her gaze. “We must be losing our edge.”

She sent him a grin that warmed him from head to toe. “Speak for yourself.”

After their date last night, he wasn’t sure how she’d respond to him. He didn’t know if their kisses had rocked her world, but they’d knocked his on its axis. He couldn’t stop thinking about her; her surprise when he gave her the corsage, how lovely she looked in the green dress that reflected the color of her eyes, her hair pulled up, framing her face. Was she as taken by him as he was with her? Surprised by this connection that had linked them together since the first moment they’d met?

He didn’t want to push if she wasn’t interested, because the unease that flashed in her eyes every now and again made him wary. Was it him? He didn’t know how he’d feel if she didn’t return the attraction. They’d see each other at the farm and he didn’t want things to be awkward between them because he really liked her. This spontaneous meetup was natural, more to his liking. And by her smile, he hoped Juliette thought so too.

“Where were you tonight?” she asked.

“We ran into each other at Smitty’s Pub, then Logan wanted me to see the venue where he and Serena are getting married. The next thing I knew, we ended up here. You?”

“A little shopping and then we came here for appetizers.”

He glanced around the deck. “Nice place.”

“Just opened this summer. It’s a great place to hang out with friends.”

“You ladies come here often?”

She glanced around the deck. “Not really. I mean, they might, but I’m usually busy with a project.”

“So how did they talk you into joining them tonight?”

Her lopsided grin went straight to his heart. “My best friend Addie came by my house and nagged me into getting out for a few hours.”

“Let me guess. You had a very important uprising to plot and didn’t want to be disturbed?”

Her chuckle lilted in the air. “Not exactly. Honestly, I was going to kick my feet up with a bowl of popcorn and watch a movie.
