“Honey, have you noticed the eyes? I thought Latravis’s were contacts or something. Who would have thought two guys would naturally have eyes that color. And come on, the facial features are even close. Very close. Like brother kind of close. Hair too.”

Sabrina stared harder at Lazar. She shook her head. “I’m not seeing it.”

“Are you blind?” Lisa demanded.

She kept staring up at Lazar. She wanted to kiss him, and it took all she had to control her urges. She wasn’t the type of girl who threw herself at a man. Ever. “I honestly don’t see what you’re talking about.”

“Geesh, at least admit the same-color-eyes thing is there. Who else do you know with eyes that shade? What do you even call it?”

“Burnt umber,” Sabrina said softly. “And, yes, Latravis’s are the same shade, but they’re very different too.”

“How do you mean?” Lisa asked.

Sabrina lost herself for a moment in Lazar’s gaze. “There is a certain coldness in Latravis’s eyes. Like he’s hiding something big. Really big, and there are times you wonder if he’s registering the same emotions as everyone else around him. Lazar’s eyes have a certain mysterious quality to them. Like he’s got a secret too, but like he’s just waiting for the right second to tell you. And most importantly, there isn’t anything cold about them.”

If anything, they made her burn.

“Honey, you’ve known the guy two hours and you’re analyzing his eyes to that degree?”

Sheepishly, Sabrina grinned. It felt like she’d known him forever and a day. “You’re the one who brought it up. Not me. I was pretty much stuck on his lips for the first hour.”

Lisa burst into laughter. “I have never seen you behave this way. Normally you’re rolling your eyes at all the guys who try to come on to you. And most of the time, you dodge them entirely. This one lays on the charm in a heavy way and you’re practically glued to him. Can I be your maid of honor at the wedding? Oh, can I be your kid’s godmother?”

That did it.

Sabrina leapt back from Lazar and nearly tripped over her uncle in the process of putting distance between her and Lazar.

Lisa laughed harder. “I will pull for you, Lazar. But looks like you’ve got your work cut out for you if you are expecting any sort of commitment out of the girl.”

Sabrina waited for Lazar to freak too.

He grinned at her, his gaze raking over her slowly. “You will find I can be most patient when called for.”

She sat down fast next to her uncle.

Gardelle chuckled and put an arm around her. “Fear not, Brina. I will beat him with a stick should he attempt to whisk you away and claim you for himself before the time is right.”

She gasped and looked at her uncle. “Don’t you mean at all? You’ll beat him period. Like for good. As in, never letting him whisk me away?”

Gardelle’s laugh was loud and long. He even teared up. “I sat here worrying
