NASH SLID onto a barstool at The Willow Tree, pretending like his pride or his ego—or both—weren’t just a bit wounded. Why the hell had he thought it’d be a good idea to ask Rory out in the first place? He didn’t do local, and he sure as hell didn’t do girlfriends, so where did he get off asking her out on a date like it was no big deal? They were sleeping together, and that was it. It was good for her, it was fucking fantastic for him, and he needed to let that be enough.

“Hey man, what’s up?” Drew flicked a coaster his way. “You here for beer or some grub too? Burgers are two for one tonight.”

“I’ll take a beer.” Or possibly four. “And, yeah, gimme two of the usual burgers.”

“You got it. Let me put this in, and I’ll be right back.” Drew knocked twice on the bar top before sauntering over to their computer system and plugging in Nash’s order.

The bar was still full for a weekday, even well past supper time. He loved coming in here. There was nothing better than seeing the culmination of his hard work. His and Rory’s. As he glanced around, there was no denying how well they meshed. His builds and her designs went together flawlessly, and he was damn proud of what they’d been able to accomplish.

“Haven’t seen you in here much lately. You been goin’ to Ropers?” Drew placed a beer in front of Nash and leaned one elbow on the bar top.

Nope. What he’d been doing was spending most of his time off in the company of a woman he couldn’t get out of his mind.

“Nah, just busy with work. Tryin’ to get this partnership off and runnin’. Gain a little traction with it.”

“The stuff with Rory? That’s been the talk of the town. Heard a couple people say you’re booked out a few months? That’s great, man.”

“Yeah, we’re pretty excited about it. Rory and I are just finishin’ up a—”

“You’re aimin’ pretty high there, Little Nash, aren’t ya?”

Nash turned to the right to see Grant Hill—a guy who’d been a few years older than him in school—sitting a couple stools over. “Aimin’ high for what?”

Grant shrugged. “Landin’ a Haven girl. We both know that ‘working’ relationship is nothing but a farce.” He snorted and took a long pull of his beer.

“Grant…” Drew said, a warning clear in his tone. “I haven’t had to kick you out all week, but that doesn’t mean I won’t start tonight.”

Nash was sure as hell glad Drew’d said something, because he was too stunned to do anything but stare. He’d figured people were talking—it was Havenbrook, after all—but he hadn’t yet been confronted with it. And he sure as hell hoped Rory hadn’t, especially after her reaction tonight.

Grant held up his mug in a salute to Nash. “Just wanted to give you props is all. But I gotta tell you… If I was gonna fuck one of ’em, it sure as hell wouldn’t be the ice queen.
