Chapter Twelve

Asher

Asher and Naomi took their cups of gelato from the restaurant to wander the hotel grounds. There was a well-kept lawn out back and gardens to the west. They ate in silence as they took in the giant chessboard and the archery club.

Seeing Brooklyn had stirred up the curiosity inside of him again. He finally asked, “Did Grandpa ever mention Eureka Springs to you?”

“No.” She sucked in her cheeks, a sure sign that she was on her way to a brain freeze. “Should he have?”

Asher wasn’t ready to divulge his email correspondence with Brooklyn quite yet. But he could share some things. “I think he may have stopped in here before he was deployed. I’m not sure, though.”

“You should ask him. He used to tell us his stories all the time.”

“Yeah, to get us to sleep.”

“True.” Naomi laughed. She looked lazily at the church spires to their right and then the mountaintops in front of them. The Crescent Hotel was built on the highest peak, so the views were fantastic. “I like it here, though. The people are open and friendly.” She watched him from the corner of her eye. “Brooklyn’s nice.”

“She’s a stinker, been stepping in my way since I got here.”

“You like her.” She bumped him with her shoulder. “Admit it.”

He chuckled. “I like feisty.”

“I bought her lunch because I knew it would annoy her.”

“Yeah, because people just hate free food.” She tossed her paper cup into a nearby trash can. “I say go for it. You need love in your life, little brother.”

“Coming from you, that’s a huge recommendation.”

She tipped her head back and soaked in the sun. “She’s a huge improvement over your last girlfriend.”

That was an understatement. “Unfortunately, all that proved was that I’m not the settling down type.”

“Who said anything about settling down? Go for some romance and see what happens.”

“Maybe.” The thing with Brooklyn was that he felt whole when he was around her. Even in their short interactions, he could tell that there was something chemical between them. But it was more than the obvious attraction pulsing between them that drew him to her time and again. There was a connection on a whole other level. A connection that had a more permanent, forever feel about it.

He just wasn’t sure what that meant for him.

But maybe it was time to find out …
