Caitlin finished cutting up the tomatoes and started adding the mozzarella and basil leaves to her bowl. While Josh was outside on her deck firing up the grill, she’d decided to make a fresh salad. His Aunt Sheila had been thrilled to get his invitation to join them for dinner and would be arriving any minute.

“The kids are out like a light,” Penny said, joining Caitlin in the kitchen.

“Thank you, Penny. I don’t know what I would do without you.” Caitlin reached for some balsamic vinegar. “Why don’t you head home now?”

“Are you sure?” Penny’s eyebrow rose, probably because Caitlin was never able to let her leave early.

“Yes. It’s been a long day, and I’ll be fine.” She pointed the vinegar bottle toward the deck. “I’ve got Josh’s help if I need an extra hand.”

“Hmmm . . . A man who cooks and is excellent with babies. Does he have a brother?” Penny grinned, adding, “. . . that looks exactly like him?”

“Nope, only a sister.” Caitlin couldn’t help but grin back, stealing a glance toward the patio. Josh’s back was to them, and yeah, his butt looked pretty amazing in the jeans and black polo he’d changed into before he came over.

“Too bad,” Penny said.

Caitlin lowered her voice, admitting, “He is quite a hunk, isn’t he?”

Penny nodded enthusiastically just as Josh turned and opened the screen. Caitlin and Penny giggled.

“You two definitely look like you’re up to something.”

Caitlin unscrewed the top from her bottle and drizzled the salad. “Just getting things ready before your aunt gets here.”

“See you, tomorrow, Josh.” Penny threw her denim hobo bag over her shoulder.

“You leaving?”

“I gave the best nanny in Buttermilk Falls a much-deserved night off,” Caitlin said. She shooed Penny out the door and turned back to her salad, her cheeks warming. Really, Caitlin. It’s not like he saw you gawking at his butt or heard you admit how handsome he was.

She was glad they had this time before Sheila arrived. She’d wanted to tell him all day about the mess she’d created with Adam before he heard it from anyone else—or received a wedding invitation at the rate Marilyn was going.

It wasn’t like Caitlin would ever go through with the zany plan, but she’d gotten several voice mail messages from the dress shop owner who’d taken the liberty to set up appointments to talk about her dress, venue, and wedding cake. Caitlin wasn’t looking forward to breaking the old woman’s heart. With all the hoopla that happened this afternoon, she hadn’t had a chance to return her calls.

She hadn’t talked to Adam all day, but she did send him a quick text asking him to ignore any rumors he may or may not hear until they had a chance to speak. He’d mentioned he was on his way to a race car derby a few towns over and wouldn’t be home until later tonight. Hopefully that would keep him far from the gossip.

They’d have to come up with a plan to break up—a public one so there would be no question that they were over.
