June

I’ve just gotten out of the shower the following afternoon when my phone starts ringing. I’m in my bathrobe trying to dry my hair, but it might be Wade. Or his mom. I’d better go into the bedroom and pick it up.

My phone says Finlay Gunn.

OMG. “Hello?”

“Hey, it’s your friendly ER doc. How’s the patient?”

“Um. He was fine last time I checked.”

“Oh. Good. And how are you?” His voice is so sexy when it dips low in his chest like that, and I shiver.

“I just got up a little while ago, actually.”

“I’m sorry I disturbed you.”

“No, it’s okay. I’m not usually conked out late on a Saturday afternoon, but I didn’t get much sleep last night.” I think a second. “I guess you didn’t either, since you were working.”

“Yeah, but I went home and got some shut-eye this morning. Listen, I thought I’d come by and have a look at your buddy, just make sure he’s recovering well.”

“You’re out of luck,” I explain. “He’s not here. I called his mom this morning, and she insisted on coming by to take him home. Said he would recover much better there.”

“That is—unexpected,” Fin says. “But maybe the best thing that could happen.” He sounds pleased.

“I know, right? I was in shock. But apparently Wade’s dad wanted him to come home, too, so—” I sniffle a little. “So he went. It was really emotional. His mom cried, he cried. I cried.”

“So,” he says, and lets the pause linger. “I guess there’s no point in my coming by your place?”

My heart rate picks up. “Um, not if you’re here to see Wade. Like as a doctor, I mean.”

“What if I’m here to see you?”

My heart speeds up even more, and my voice cracks a little. “I . . . I’d love that.”

“Good. Because I’m at your door.”

“What?” I hurl myself through the apartment to check the peephole. I have to stand on tiptoe to get my eye up to the thing, but it shows me his chest. Damn, he’s so tall! “OMG. You’re at my door.”

He steps back so I can see his face. He’s smiling, and those hot dark eyes of his give me goose bumps even through two inches of steel door. “Toldja.”

He looks yummy in regular clothes. The faded jeans fit him, and the green henley shirt clings to his torso, and he just looks so good in them that I want to peel him out of them. I shake my head to clear it.

“But how did you get—how do you know where I live?” I ask, confused, and I can see his smile fade a little.

“I did something slightly unethical,” he admits, looking chagrined. “And by ‘slightly unethical’ I mean more unethical than kissing you in a hospital room last night.” He shrugs uncomfortably. “I looked up the info on Wade’s chart,” he says. “I realize that’s a little bit stalkery, so if you want me to leave you alone, just say so.”

“I don’t want you to leave me alone.” My voice cracks again.
