“How was he?” Theresa “Teddy” Granville jumped up from her chair the moment Diana came through the office door. “Was he as good-looking as we thought?”

Diana dropped her purse on the chair and gave Teddy the look. It should have been patented between them. It was the look they gave each other when a bride chose something that was totally wrong for her theme.

“That bad?” Teddy was nonplussed. She flopped back down in her chair. “After we had such high hopes.”

“After you had high hopes.” It was at Teddy’s insistence that Diana go to MatchforLove.com. Diana had done it to silence her partner. But after she began talking to [email protected], things changed. He seemed to understand her. Even though they never identified themselves by name, he knew she owned her own business and she knew he flew airplanes. She thought he was a pilot.

“What was wrong with him?”

“He was Scott Thomas.”

Teddy came forward in her chair as if she’d been pushed. “Scott Thomas? The Scott Thomas who wants us to move? That Scott Thomas?”

“One and the same,” Diana said.

“That’s impossible.”

“I couldn’t believe it myself. It was all I could do to get out of the coffee shop.”

“Without seeing him?”

“Unfortunately, no,” Diana said. She took a seat in front of Teddy’s desk. The place was neat as a pin, although Teddy was juggling three weddings for the next two weeks. It was time for the brides to get crazy and the mothers of the brides to go ballistic over something minor. Luckily at this moment the phones weren’t ringing with complaints. “I wished I could have become invisible when I saw him, but he spotted me and we talked.”

“Talked?”

“We both agreed that the dating service had made a terrible mistake. No way are we compatible.”

“That’s all?”

“Pretty much.”

“Pretty much, what?” As usual Teddy read between the lines and persisted.

“As we were parting he called me a liar.”

“What?” Her eyes grew big.

“Not in those exact words. He asked me if everything I put in my profile was true.”

“Well it was, wasn’t it?” Teddy asked.

“Teddy!”

“I mean,” she stammered. “We all like to embellish ourselves a little online.”

“I did not embellish.”

At that moment the phone rang. Diana got up to leave. At the door Teddy stopped her. “Well, at least he’s good-looking,” she said.

Diana frowned at her and went to her own office. It was a contrast to the orderliness of Teddy’s. Diana worked in chaos. She knew where everything was, and she could put her hands on it without error.

Good-looking, Teddy had said. Diana supposed if she thought about him without the animosity that clouded his image, Scott was pleasant to look at. More than that. He had great eyes. They were probably his best feature, dark brown, fringed by long lashes. His cheeks had dimples that drove the women crazy in college. They hadn’t diminished in effect in the ten years since they graduated. He wasn’t a football player, but his lean features boded well for the diving team. Diana remembered the broad shoulders that tapered to a thin waist and strong muscular legs.
