“Sunnie,” Landon murmured quietly, shaking her gently. “Sunnie.”

She slept like the dead, so he tried again.

“Mmmm,” she hummed, clearly not awake yet.

“Rise and shine, Sunshine.”

Sunnie’s hair was a tangled mess on the pillow, the covers twisted in a pretzel. She slept on her stomach, arms stretched upwards, diagonally on the queen-size mattress.

Sunnie and Yvonne had shared a bedroom up until about a year ago when their older cousins Caitlyn and Ailis moved in with their boyfriends. That left an extra room, so Yvonne claimed it. Sunnie, delighted to have more space, immediately traded in the single bed for a queen. He knew that because it had been he and Finn who’d lugged the old bed out and the new one in.

She wore an oversized T-shirt and boxers.

“Sunnie,” he tried again, sitting on the side of the mattress, shaking her a bit harder.

She blinked a few times, and he suspected she was trying to focus.

“Landon?”

“Yeah. You need to get up, babe.”

She glanced around her room, confused. He didn’t blame her. He’d dropped her off last night after their dinner date, only walking her as far as the entrance to the pub, where he’d given her a pretty legit good-night kiss.

She thought it had been for the benefit of the dozen or so tabloid photographers there. He knew it was for him.

“What time is it?” she mumbled, her voice husky from sleep. She was still trying to function.

“Six.”

She frowned, and for the first time it looked like she was fully conscious. “As in a.m.?”

He nodded.

“What the hell are you doing here?”

“I have a key. I’ve always had one.”

Her frown was more scowl as she said, “I know that, jackass. I didn’t ask how you got in here. I asked why you’re here. In my room. At the ass crack of dawn. I’m on vacation. That means sleeping in.”

“One of the producers from a local news show called me and said they had a last-minute cancellation this morning. He was hoping you and I could make an appearance. Nothing major. We just go on and answer a few questions. Whole segment isn’t going to last more than five minutes.”

She sat up, tugging at the leg of her boxers. He was sorry she’d done that. One side had ridden up, giving him ample view of her entire thigh and the tiniest bit of her ass cheek.

“Are you serious?”

“Yeah. I thought you’d be excited. It’s that New Day Baltimore thing with the hot weather guy. You love that show.”

“Well, I do, but…what are we going to say?”

“That’s why I’m here early. I thought you could get a quick shower, then we’ll grab some breakfast, get our stories straight. Our segment airs live at nine-fifty, but the guy would like us there an hour early for makeup and to briefly go over things.”

Landon had expected her to jump right on this, but she still hesitated. “Why would you agree to this? You’re going to hate every minute of it.”

He shrugged. He was. He really was. But
