Colleen took her place on the window seat next to Simon. The study had certainly been the place to be this morning. She was hoping for more of the same this afternoon. “What did I miss?” she asked Simon as Kitty left the study. Her daughter-in-law was walking away with a sheaf of computer printouts in her hand. Colleen imagined that, like Maura, Kitty had been seeking Jenna’s matchmaking advice. Lord knew she could use it.

If the cat had eyebrows, they’d reach his ears.

“All right, you don’t have to get snooty about it. I haven’t lost my marbles. I know you can’t speak, but sometimes I get tired of talking to myself and pretend that you can. Besides, you know what I’m saying. Of that I’m certain.” He was a canny cat, but she shouldn’t be complimenting him. He was liable to get a swelled head, and he was difficult enough to deal with on a good day.

Colleen had been trailing Maura, prepared to do what she could to stave off an assignation between her and Daniel. She’d also been trying to gain Jasper’s attention. She needed to get a peek at her book to get the full story about the Daniel, Maura, and Sean love triangle. Imagine Maura thinking Daniel was her match and not her husband of forty years. Colleen prayed there was not an ounce of truth to it.

She glanced at Jenna and blinked. “What in all that is holy has the girl got on her face?” Simon gave her the look again. Colleen waved him off. “Don’t be so literal.”

She was just about to walk over and see what Jenna was up to when there was a knock on the study door. Jenna looked up from the book she’d been perusing, the overlarge sunglasses with the pink lenses practically swallowing her face. “Come in.”

“Hey…Ah, wow, interesting-looking shades.” Connor glanced around the room. “Do you want me to lower the blinds?”

“No, it’s okay.” Looking embarrassed, Jenna removed her glasses. “I’m color-blind. Logan bought these for me so I could do my job without bothering him every ten minutes. This falls under lawyer-client confidentiality, doesn’t it?”

“Sure, if that’s what you want. But it’s not really a big deal that you’re color-blind, is it? If you ask me, the glasses are a bigger deal. You’re lucky you can pull them off, Jenna,” Connor said, flashing a brilliant smile. He was a charmer, that one. Just like his uncle Daniel.

Colleen stared at the lad. He couldn’t be Daniel’s, could he? No, she would’ve remembered something like that.

“I don’t think your family would’ve hired me had they known I was color-blind. It’s kind of important for a wedding planner. And I need the job. Thank you for agreeing to meet me here, by the way.”

“No problem. I wanted to talk to my mom anyway.”

Jenna looked like she wanted to ask him if Maura had agreed to get a second opinion. She wouldn’t though. And the lads would have no idea they had Jenna to thank if their mother agreed to further testing.
