CHAPTER THIRTEEN

“I almost kissed her.”

Jonathan sputtered, trying not to dribble his coffee down his chin and onto his very expensive Ralph Lauren sweater. “You did what?” he asked once he’d gotten himself under control.

“You heard me.” Cassie sat at her desk where she’d been most of the morning. She wasn’t sure why she’d told Jonathan about the previous night. She knew what his reaction would be. He didn’t disappoint.

“Jesus, Cassandra. What’s gotten into you? Her? The Ice Princess? Really?”

Cassie shook her head and gazed out the window at the steel gray sky. The first snowfall was predicted to arrive this week and for the first time in years, she wished it would hold off. The idea of curling up in front of her gas fireplace alone was less than appealing. “I wish you’d stop calling her that,” she said quietly.

“But it’s so fitting.”

“It’s really not.” Cassie dropped a hand onto Gordie’s head, pet him absently as she continued to stare into the distance.

Apparently, Jonathan agreed to disagree with her because he let that one go. “Well, she is stunningly good looking. At least I can see why you’d be attracted to her. And pray tell, why did you not kiss her?”

Cassie looked at him and tried to gauge whether he really wanted to know or he was just pacifying her. Surprisingly, she didn’t care. She needed to talk this out, and Jonathan was there. He’d do. “Her girlfriend showed up.”

Jonathan stared at her for a full five seconds before he spoke. “Wait. What? Her girlfriend is here? In Lake Henry?”

“Well, my regular friends don’t kiss me on the mouth in greeting, so I’m going to go with yes, it was her girlfriend, and she’s here.”

“Huh.”

“Yeah.”

“Was she pretty?”

Cassie cocked her head at him. “Really?”

He shrugged. “What? I’m curious.”

“She was beautiful,” Cassie said with a sigh as she thought back to the evening before and the woman who’d so rudely interrupted what had been an amazing night, surely about to get better. Chestnut brown hair that fell in waves around her shoulders, and light blue eyes that darted from Emerson to Cassie and back. An outfit that consisted of pricey tailored slacks and a light blue sweater that looked like it was meant only for her. Cassie shook the memory away and realized she was irritated with herself that it never occurred to her Emerson might have somebody. “Very put together. Pretty blue eyes. Gorgeous hair. Expensive clothes.” The anti-Cassie, she thought but refrained from saying aloud.

“Has she been here the whole time?”

“I don’t think so. Mary would’ve said something.” Cassie thought back to the previous night. “And you know what? Emerson seemed as shocked to see her as I was.”

“Oh, the surprise visit. Those are always fun. Not.”

“Right? Anyway, I have no idea what’s going on. It was all so weird. We had a fun night. She was surprisingly great with the kids. She got really cold at one point, but she never complained because…I think she was enjoying herself. I know I was.
