Zack parked the bike at the end of a row of other motorcycles in the parking lot outside of Boone’s Bar. Made up to look like the outside of a big red barn, Boone’s was a classic country dance hall. At first, he’d considered taking her to the only steak house in Lost Hills, but they didn’t have a dance floor and he wanted a reason to get close to her again.

After securing their helmets, Zack grabbed her hand. He led her into the huge building. Strings of sparkling white lights hung from wood beams to cast a romantic glow over the dance floor. Rows and rows of packed picnic tables flanked the room. A bar stood opposite a live band. Country music blasted from the speakers as a man called the instructions for a square dance.

“Swing your partner ‘round and ‘round, and turn your corner upside down. And turn your corner like you’re swingin’ on a gate, and meet your partner for a grand chain eight. And hurry up boys and don’t be late. Chew your tobacco and rub your snuff, and meet your honey and strut your stuff.”

Many of the people sitting around the tables clapped in time with the music, while others passed pitchers of beer and pizza to their friends. As they made their way past the dancers to the bar, Zack waved at several groups of people.

“You seem to know everyone,” Kim yelled over the frantic fiddling coming from the stage.

“When you live in a small town, everyone gets to know everyone else.”

“It’s not like that in Houston.”

“That’s too bad. I like knowin’ who my neighbors are,” he said.

“I’m surprised we’re in a bar,” she said. “I thought we were going to have a quiet night out.”

“No way, Cupcake. And besides, this isn’t just any ol’ bar. This is Boone’s. My family’s been coming here for fifty years.”

“Wow.”

“It’s our family’s favorite watering hole,” he said. “Decades ago, it was an old dairy farm. When Boone’s old man bought it, he turned it into the best dance hall for a hundred miles. The family still runs the day-to-day operations. You won’t find a better place to grab a beer and eat some good ol’-fashioned brick-fired pizza.”

“Will I get to meet the owners?” she asked.

“If you play your cards right, I might be able to arrange a rendezvous.” When she blushed, he grinned. “Come on, hon. Let’s get some moonshine.”

“Moonshine?”

“You said you’re a whiskey kind of girl, right?” he asked.

“Right,” she laughed. “But just a sip. I don’t want to be hungover tomorrow.”

After elbowing his way through the patrons, he waved at the bartender.

“Kenny,” Zack called. When his friend strolled over, he introduced him to Kim then said, “This little lady likes whiskey. Do you have any moonshine under the counter back there?”

“Not while Sheriff Olson’s here.” Kenny motioned toward the lawman sitting at the end of the counter. The sheriff was gesturing wildly while a group of people laughed around him. “He’s been telling fisherman’s tales all night, but he’s still sharp as a tack.
