Ian and I ate an early supper since neither one of us had had lunch, then we parked ourselves at the dining room table to go through the lodge’s old receipts. I had no worries of Amy, Beau now with her after following Noah to the B&B where he waited and after an hour of no movement from the man he returned to Amy’s house to stay the night with her.

We found the dates we were looking for and started digging through them.

“The lodge was busy back then,” Ian said.

“Once people visited, they returned year after year. There was always lots going on. Besides the activities, there were special events. Willow Lake Lodge had a great reputation.”

“I’m sorry I never accepted my uncle’s offer to visit here. I was always too busy,” Ian said.

“And a visit to a lodge in the mountains of Pennsylvania didn’t exactly sound exciting.”

Ian smiled. “You got me on that one though it would have been interesting meeting you back then.”

“You wouldn’t have given me the time of day.”

He took hold of my chin to turn my head toward him. “That’s where you’re wrong, Pep. One look was all I needed to fall in love with you. It would have only been that much sooner.”

He kissed me, his kiss and words melting my heart.

“Did you fall in love with me at first sight?” he asked.

My mouth dropped open. I didn’t know what to say.

Ian laughed. “I love teasing you, Pep. I wasn’t exactly your favorite guy when I snatched you up off that dead body, my knife sheath strapped to my leg, empty, and the guy’s throat cut.”

“And then you got bossy with me,” I reminded.

“Out of worry for you, but you have to admit, I didn’t give up, I wore you down,” he said proudly.

“It didn’t take much,” I admitted. “And it still doesn’t.” I slipped my arms around his neck and enjoyed a much more thorough kiss.

Ian rested his brow against mine once done. “The receipts can wait until later.”

“Definitely,” I said, and we rushed off to the bedroom.
