Evie

I guess I don’t have to wonder about whether or not my brother knows about my sexual activity. After that little caveman display, he’s well up to speed on who exactly Rhett is to me. Shame pinkens my cheeks during our walk together back into the hotel after arguing in the parking lot. More secrets than I wanted to disclose were exposed in broad daylight.

When we step into the lobby, I'm thankful that Rhett, his ex, and his son are nowhere to be found. Running into the trio would be the absolute icing on this shit-tastic cake.

“I still can’t believe you’re here,” I mutter as we ride the elevator up to the twelfth floor. I should be grateful we’re nowhere near the room I shared last night, but knowing Rhett is somewhere in this hotel makes me want to take him up on his offer to stay another night.

“Accident or not, I finally got the name of the town you were in. Of course I’d take the first flight across the ocean to check on you. Caiti stayed up all night searching every social media platform for Arrow Creek community groups. She finally stumbled on a post you made for your business and found the correct state. She could probably work for the FBI with her sleuthing skills.”

“You could have just taken my word for it.” The elevator dings. I step off but wait for Eric to lead the way.

He bumps my shoulder as he passes. “It’s been months. First knowing you were still living with Tate but separated, and then you went on the run.”

“I wasn’t on the run,” I fire back. “Can’t a girl have some privacy after a major breakup?”

“Not when I’m the only family you have. Buy a new car. Drastically change your hair. Do anything except hide from me. Not cool, Evie.”

The key card opens the door, and he steps back for me to enter. The squeals that reach my ears nearly knock me back into the hall.

“You already found her! I thought we were going to be searching for hours!” Caiti launches herself into my arms. I’m assaulted by shiny black hair and the smell of cherry blossoms. I squeeze her back.

Eric shoves the door with more force than necessary. “You won’t believe this shit, Cait.”

“Eric,” I hiss. Here we go again. “Let it go.”

“What shit?” Caiti pushes me back at arm’s length and scans me head to toe. “What’s going on?”

“Do you have anything to drink? Also, I’m ordering room service on your tab since Eric won’t let me leave to get food,” I mutter

“What the hell, Eric?” Caiti immediately jumps to my defense.

“Aren’t you curious why I found her loitering in a hotel parking lot?” His car keys clank on the counter where he tosses them.

Caiti pins me with a quizzical stare.

“Oh, come on. I wasn’t loitering.” I throw my hands up in the air.

Eric pops the top on a beer from his mini-fridge. They sure came prepared. I hold out my hand when Caiti passes one over, ignoring the fact it’s only noon on a Saturday.
