The following Sunday, Drew rose from bed early, showered, shaved, and donned a two-piece suit of gray, a white dress shirt and pale blue tie.

All the while, his nerves performed a roughshod tap dance.

Every tick of the clock inched him closer and closer to departure. In a few minutes, he’d meet Kassidy and other tour members in the lobby. From there they’d walk, en masse, to Queen of Saints Church for ten o’clock Mass.

Dessert and coffee had clinched the decision for him, but Kassidy knew nothing of his plan to attend services. He wanted no fanfare. He wanted only to blend in with the others and determine for himself what was going on in the stretch of land between his head and his heart.

Looking in the mirror, he straightened the line of his coat, smoothed the fall of his tie. After pocketing the access card to his room, Drew pushed open the door and strode to the elevator. When he punched the call button, he noticed a finite tremble in his fingers so he breathed deep.

This was no big deal. Really.

Drew stepped inside the elevator, senses tingling—mind at war.

Going to church today wasn’t about finding Christ. This wasn’t about finding a way to Kassidy Cartwright either, except for the fact that she had challenged him. In eloquent terms she had urged him to confront a number of valid points about faith and nourishing his spirit. Those points were well worth exploring.

The elevator descended. Drew leaned against a gleaming brass rail and watched floor numbers flash past. Gathering with the troops would be his first testing of the waters. How would they react? Would he be accepted? Would Kassidy understand he was searching for answers, not a means by which to win her admiration and affection?

As soon as the doors slid open, he heard laughter and familiar voices. Drew cleared his throat and slowly stepped across the threshold.

Hesitation became a debilitating ice-stroke against his arms and legs as he approached his colleagues. A storm of doubt and uncertainty brought his footsteps to a stop.

Perhaps he had made a mistake. Should he even infringe upon the scene?

He noticed Paul Moreland carrying on a conversation with Liam. The head sound tech did nothing to hide his surprise when he noticed Drew’s arrival. Surprise, and unless Drew was mistaken, a hearty level of skepticism as well.

Paul arched a brow and returned his attention to Liam; Drew nearly fled for the elevator. This was ridiculous. What was he thinking?

Those who seek Me will always find Me.

Drew froze in place. Shook his head. Where on earth had that come from? How could a whisper roll like thunder? How could simple words vibrate through his head, his chest, with such resonating power? The message held him in an odd form of suspense.

His seeking gaze drifted to Kassidy. A white blouse, paired with a simple black skirt, black leather pumps, was so classic in style, yet at the same time…Drew swallowed against a dry throat and a flood of need…impeccably feminine.
