Trin didn’t know what was happening to her. She was falling for a pretty boy who didn’t know how to work. Okay, that wasn’t really fair. The past few days he’d worked alongside her and he was actually a quick learner and a hard worker. Obviously, the training he was doing was incredibly tough and he knew how to push himself physically, but why didn’t he engage in real life, real relationships? He was almost thirty years old and was basically freeloading off his father. At least, that’s what she had thought before, but now she knew that wasn’t exactly true. The businesses he’d created selling everything from supplements to clothing to the Ironman circuit were hugely successful. He couldn’t have created them without his father’s backing, but it was still great that he’d created something.

The things she’s learned about him were changing her opinion drastically—he had a successful business, he wanted to help her, he’d committed himself in an effort to be better than an addict and alcoholic, and he was kind. All these things made him irresistible to her. And when he smiled at her or talked to her or touched her. My, oh, my. She didn’t care that his background differed vastly from hers and they both had commitment issues, she just wished he would kiss her.

They combined the leftover Thai food and put it away in the fridge. “Thank you for dinner, that was delicious.”

“Anytime. Do you always just eat here?”

“Oh, that’s relaxing and fun.” He shook his head. “Errands for yourself or for the house?” He eyed her closely.

“Um, both.” She didn’t really have many errands for herself. She did most of her shopping online. She loved this house, the work, and interacting with the people. The only thing she really missed was playing tennis, and you had to have a partner for that, not just free time.

Mr. Gunnell was in the dining room, loading up on cookies. “Hey. Have you tried these snickerdoodles?”

Zander nodded. “I ate one the first day I got here.”

“You could probably use ten more. All muscle and bone. Women like a little something around the waist.” Mr. Gunnell winked.

Trin hid a smile. Mr. Gunnell had more than a little around the waist and she thought Zander looked just about perfect.

“So, you’re still here,” Mr. Gunnell continued. “Pretty odd for a single guy to want to hang out at a honeymooner’s spot.”

Zander gestured to Trin. “I’m trying to recruit her to the honeymoon idea. Don’t ruin my game, man.”

Trin looked at Zander, incredulous. He winked and she started laughing. He was teasing. Darn, disappointing, but still pretty funny.

Mr. Gunnell swung to face Trin. “That so? You think you’re good enough for our Trin, Mr. Hunley?”

Trin had almost forgotten about the assumed name. That was definitely for the best. If Mr.
