She wasn’t kidding when she’d said first thing in the morning. Colt woke shortly after eight o’clock, and she’d been long gone. But the imprint of her body on the picnic blanket—next to her neatly rolled-up sleeping bag—was all the evidence he needed to know last night had been real.

He cleaned up the rest of their mess and headed back to his room at the ranch. As soon as he walked in the door, he headed toward the kitchen where he smelled fresh-brewed coffee. Next to an insulated carafe—that she’d likely borrowed from Luis—on the counter was a note that said, Look in the fridge.

He opened the refrigerator to find a glass container of fresh fruit next to another of what he guessed was yogurt. On the shelf in the fridge was another note.

Now look in the microwave.

He laughed, spun back to the counter, and opened the microwave door. Inside was a plate filled with breakfast potatoes and what he recognized as Luis’s breakfast frittata. And of course attached to the plate was yet another note.

Something more than sweets. Luis said no more than forty-five seconds or the eggs will turn to rubber. Now go check the mirror in the bathroom. Last one. Promise.

He grabbed a cold potato and tossed it into his mouth, the savory taste making his mouth water for more.

Then he made his way to the bathroom, where the final note was posted on the mirror.

Sam’s on duty tonight, so I offered to spend the night with Delaney since she’s stuck either in bed or on the couch. Meet you back here at around 10:30 or 11?

She’d drawn an arrow pointing toward the left. He laughed out loud when he followed the arrow to find not only his bathtub, which he knew would be there, but the box of condoms she’d brought over the other night sitting right in the middle of said bathtub.

She’d broken into his place again—and taken care of him like he mattered as much to her as she did to him.

That was it. She couldn’t ever leave Meadow Valley, not for good. Whatever was happening here was the real deal, and he would be one hell of a fool to let her go home without telling her as much.

Sacramento. The road trip. It would be perfect. It was how they’d met, so it should be how he told her that he was all in, ready to risk his heart on the woman he knew couldn’t possibly stomp it to dust.
