She didn’t see Liam the next day, or the next. Apparently he worked weekends too, but they’d agreed to meet for church on Sunday morning. Rose had escaped any lectures about kissing too soon or the wrong man by Lily, for which she thanked her lucky stars each day.

She still got to hold baby Charlie, and Celia had disposed of the disgusting pie from Valentine’s Day. Rose used to spend all her time writing song and plucking strings, and she hadn’t done either since arriving in Coral Canyon.

So when she got back to the notebooks full of lyrics she’d scrawled over the years, her eyes seemed to pick out the exact ones she should use. A new song came together in a matter of an hour, and she drove down the canyon to Vi’s on Saturday afternoon to borrow some of her instruments.

The house was perfectly ordinary, sitting in a regular neighborhood like Vi had never stood on a stage with six spotlights on her as she sang the prettiest ballad the sisters had. She’d said she wouldn’t be home, so Rose went right in, almost falling backward when Vi said, “Hey, Rose.”

A yelp came out of her mouth, and she dropped her car keys. “Vi.” She pressed one hand over her heart as she found her sister sitting on the couch a few feet from the front door. “You said you wouldn’t be home.”

“Yeah, I didn’t think I would be. But Todd wanted to go snowshoeing and it hurts my hips. So.” She indicated the Old English sheepdog next to her. “I got Jetstream and there’s hot chocolate in the kitchen.”

“I’ll take some of that,” Rose said, entering the house and closing the door. “And hey, you can tell me if this song is stupid or not.”

“Sure.” Vi got up and tucked her short hair behind her ear, where of course, it didn’t stay.

“No engagement ring yet?” Rose asked as they moved into the kitchen for the treats first.

“No,” she said darkly. “Honestly, I don’t know what he’s waiting for. We didn’t go out on Valentine’s Day because of the storm, but we did the next night. Nothing.” Vi heaved a huge sigh, and Rose felt her disappointment through her whole body.

“I’m sorry, Vi.” She took the mug her sister gave her. “Want me to say something to him?”

“Absolutely not. Lily keeps asking too. It’s fine. It’ll happen when it happens.”

“He knows you want to get married in the spring. Maybe he just doesn’t want a long engagement.”

“What’s the difference?” Vi asked sourly. “And if I was wearing a ring, maybe I’d be more inclined to move the date up. Maybe I wouldn’t want to wait if I thought he really wanted me.”

Rose paused, hearing the self-depreciation in her sister’s voice. “Vi,” she said carefully. “Of course he wants you. He flew to Nashville and broke into your house to get you back, remember?”

“Not technically,” she said. “Lily gave him the codes.” She put more mini marshmallows in her hot chocolate than fit, and several spilled out the top.
