Grant

Grant nearly cancelled the date half a dozen times. He kept pulling his cell phone from his pocket and scrolling to Sara’s name, but he couldn’t bring himself to hit call.

He kept thinking about Sara’s touch on his face outside of the coffee shop. The brush of her thumb against his lip, the quickening of her breath, and the way she leaned in—just a touch, just enough to let him know she was thinking of kissing him. It replayed in his mind constantly.

He’d wanted to kiss her. But that line was a dangerous one to cross and not something he had a right to do. She hadn’t asked for anything more serious than some fun and flirtation. Sara was in the driver’s seat, not Grant.

But if she’d leaned in and kissed him, he wouldn’t have stopped her. Not for a second.

So instead of calling to cancel, Grant had gotten ready and driven to Sara’s house. The porch light was a welcome beacon. He killed the ignition and took a deep breath. “You can do this. Keep it light. Some fun, some dancing. That’s it.”

He climbed out of the SUV. The night was crisp, the faint scent of fall leaves and grass drifted on the wind. His boots thumped against the porch. Grant took another deep breath, cleared his throat, and rang the bell.

Light. Fun. Flirty. You’ve gone against the worst kinds of terrorists. You can do one date—

The door swung open, and any thought Grant had flittered away. His heart seemed to stop and then picked up speed like a race car.

Sara was dressed in a red, feminine, floaty dress that flirted with her gorgeous legs. She’d done something special with her eyes, and his gaze was drawn to them, then down to her deep red lips. A simple chain caressed the curve of her neck, slipping along her collar bone. His fingers twitched with the urge to adjust her necklace and discover if her skin was as soft as it appeared.

It would be. He knew it would be. This was Sara. Everything about her was…unbelievable. Fantastic. Gorgeous.

Sara shifted in her cowboy boots. Land’s sake, he’d never been one for cowboy boots, but she was changing his mind. No, not changing his mind. Changed his mind. He was officially pro-cowboy boots. Especially sexy black ones that gave Sara just enough height to reach his chin.

“Umm, should we go?” Sara asked.

Belatedly, Grant realized she’d said hello to him, and he’d said nothing, just stood on her front porch like a dummy. He sucked in a breath—yes, he’d been holding his breath—and somehow found his tongue. “You look nice.”

Nice? No, wrong word. He held up a hand. “I mean…you look great…stunning.”

Good grief, the woman had him tripping over himself, and she’d only opened the door and said hello.

Get it together, Edwards.

He took a deep breath. “You’re breathtaking. You have me tongue-tied.”

Sara smiled, a pink color rising in her cheeks. “Thanks. You look great too. I like that color on you.”

He was wearing a blue button-down.
