Chapter Eleven

Three weeks. It had been three weeks since Becca’s wedding and three weeks during which Emma hadn’t had even one damn phone call from her sister.

After having talked on the phone every day—sometimes multiple times a day—since Becca’s move to Oklahoma a year ago, the drought in communications was enough to drive Emma nuts. Sure, she hadn’t expected a lot of contact—after all, Becca was on her honeymoon. But still, was one phone call too much to ask?

It had also been three weeks since she’d said good-bye to Logan, stealing a much too brief good-bye kiss in the coatroom before she left for the airport with her parents. Three weeks with no call from him, either.

For the entire week after the wedding, Emma had jumped every time the phone rang, hoping if it wasn’t Becca, maybe it might be Logan. She’d been disappointed every single time.

She let out a huff and looked at the display on her cell phone one more time. She confirmed it was charged and had signal, and that she hadn’t missed any calls or texts.

What the hell was wrong with her? She flung the phone at the throw pillow on the other end of the sofa. If Logan hadn’t called yet, he wasn’t going to. Proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that Emma’s taste in men stank.

In spite of the fact they’d both gone in to that night together knowing it was just sex, she’d honestly thought he would call when he discovered she’d slipped her business card into the pocket of his tuxedo.

They’d connected on a level much deeper than sex. And Logan wasn’t Jace, who had a history of ditching her. Of promising to call and then not following through.

This was Logan, the man who’d looked at her and made her feel as if she were the only woman in the world. He’d told her she was beautiful, both dripping wet from the shower, as well as when she was wearing her fancy dress at the wedding. They’d almost been late for the brunch because they couldn’t keep their hands off each other. He didn’t need to say all those sweet things to her, but he did. She hated to believe she was such a horrible judge of character, yet the proof was there in the phone that had never been more silent.

Logan was the man who’d never been married and hadn’t had a serious girlfriend that Becca knew of. Emma needed to remember that. He obviously wasn’t the kind of guy who wanted to settle down, not even for a casual, long-distance relationship.

Maybe he was incapable of giving more. A man didn’t reach his age without ever having been married unless he had commitment issues. He’d blamed it on the army, but Tuck was a soldier, too, and he was married. Twice now.

As much as Emma had pretended to herself and to Logan that she only wanted a night of mindless sex, she wanted more. She’d hoped he had, too. Apparently, he didn’t.
