Chapter Eleven

Maggie had enjoyed an afternoon at the Dublin Zoo, a way to change things up. It was the first time the sun had come out all week, since she’d returned to Dublin after the Cliffs of Moher. She wanted—needed—to be outside in the sunshine. The zoo had been fairly crowded for a Thursday, it was a lovely place, and a nice reprieve from dark, old stone buildings filled with ghosts of the long gone. It was filled with life.

She got back to her flat just after four and decided on taking a quick shower before heading down to the pub, in case Colin was there tonight. In case he wanted to go home with her. She hoped he did. Thinking back on the week, the loopy, besotted smile that usually accompanied thoughts of him bloomed on her face.

Monday, she’d had dinner with Ciara. Tuesday, she’d found him at the pub, scribbling away in his notebook. They’d had a pint and she’d invited him back to her flat. The eager look in his eyes combined with the low murmur of his acceptance had gotten her nerves tingling and her blood racing in an instant. God help her, he turned her on in every way. They’d spent a fabulously steamy night together, only he hadn’t slept over that time because of an early meeting at work the next morning. Wednesday night was his weekly dinner with his kids, so she’d gone to another pub in another neighborhood that she’d heard was fun and wanted to check out.

She’d stayed at the bar and befriended one of the bartenders immediately, as was her habit for her safety. And after half an hour, been hit on by an attractive guy in his late twenties. Pete had been really nice, but she had no interest and let him down gently. All she wanted was more sexy nights with a quiet, slightly older true gentleman. Who she could talk to about anything and everything, and who listened intently. Whose eyes were a deep, brilliant blue and whose smile was rare but blinding. Who was aloof and wound up tight, but in private, let loose with her. Watching that transition in her bedroom had been astounding, and she was enjoying every bit of it.

She deep conditioned her hair and shaved her legs, hoping for another go with Colin tonight. He was a little slice of heaven, and she was… she wasn’t sure what she was. Smitten? Yeah, she could own that. She liked him. That didn’t need analyzing.

Wrapping her hair in a towel turban style, she walked back into her bedroom just as her phone rang. Glancing at the screen, her brows lifted in surprise, then she winced. She hadn’t returned a call in a while. “Mom?”

“Hi, honey! Oh, I’m so glad I got you. This voice mail tag was getting tiresome.”

Maggie winced harder. “I’m sorry. I just—”

“I know, I know. Believe me, by now I know the drill,” Susie Flynn said dryly. “So how are you
