By midway through the next week, I could barely believe that I had thought I was all caught up on my duties, enough so that I had been able to take last Saturday off. Once the tourists had really started arriving in droves, it seemed like everything went to hell, and fast. From blown lightbulbs to malfunctioning appliances, from finicky lifts to broken snowmobile belts, it seemed like every time I turned around, there was something else wrong.

Right now, it was the lights in one of the conference rooms. We were due to have a group of ski instructors from all around the country convene in there that afternoon for some indoor training followed by outdoor training the next three days. But at the moment, half the lights weren’t working. I finally managed to narrow it down to the fact that one of the bulbs had blown; apparently, this place was wired like a Christmas tree so that if one bulb went out, the rest wouldn’t light either.

Stupid lighting. I made a mental note to put it on my long-term task list, but I knew that I probably wouldn’t get to something like that until the resort shut down in the spring. Too much traffic in the conference rooms otherwise, and the last thing I needed was to blow the electricity in half the lodge while I fiddled around with rewiring.

I carefully pulled down the blown bulb and set it off to the side, wiping my hands off on my jeans before reaching for the new bulb. I frowned down at the box and then shook my head.

Curious, I had looked at the sign-off for the order and saw that Ian was responsible for them.

But hey, it wasn’t my job to say anything. My job was just to get those lightbulbs fixed as needed. So that’s what I did right now. I was just coming down the ladder to try the lights when Bailey walked in. For a moment, I froze, startled. But then, I forced myself to smile at her. Whatever else had gone on between us, she was still my boss.

“Just getting these lights working for this afternoon,” I told her, gesturing up towards the ceiling. “You mind hitting that third switch from the left?”

Bailey hit the switch, and all the lights in the room came on. I nodded. “All set,” I said, putting the old bulb into the box that the new bulb had come in. “You getting everything set up for this afternoon?”

Bailey shook her head, coming over and hopping up on a table near me, studying me. “You’ve been avoiding me,” she said.

I raised an eyebrow at her. “I’m right here,” I pointed out. “I’m not hiding.” That
