I’m at it again.

Fishing in unchartered waters.

I’ve plugged Calliope’s name into Google in every manner that I can think of.

Calliope Morrow.

Callie Morrow.

Callie from Tin Anchor.

I even spent the better part of an hour perusing every fucking hashtag that has anything to do with that bar she works at.

I was hoping to land a big catch in the form of a clue about her life.

When I saw her this morning, looking both sexy-as-fuck, and vulnerable-as-hell in the lobby, I had a sudden urge to protect her.

I know that whatever happened in her last relationship scarred her, so I want any scrap of information that will tell me more about that and who the hell the idiot was that let her slip out of his grasp.

I look up from my computer screen when I hear Decky clearing his throat.

“Knock,” I tell him. “Just goddamn knock if you want to talk to me.”

His hand glides down the front of his neck. “Not everything is about you, Saint. I took a bite of a bagel that got caught between here and there.”

“Do you need me to do the Heimlich?”

A bark of laughter follows a cough. “I’m fine. The last time you tried to administer first aid, you broke one of my ribs.”

“I was twelve,” I point out. “I hadn’t gotten first aid training yet.”

He takes a full step into my office. “And you have now?”

I tap the corner of my laptop screen. “I’ve watched a few videos. I’m confident I can save you without breaking anything.”

“I’ll pass.” His arms cross over his chest. “Do you want to meet up tonight? There’s a new restaurant opening in Tribeca. I scored a couple of invites to their soft launch.”

“I can’t,” I say directly. “I’m taking Calliope out for dinner.”

His brow furrows. “Really?”

“Really,” I echo. “I like her.”

It’s an admission I didn’t have to make, but I know my brother. He’ll probe and prod until I tell him how I feel about my neighbor. Tossing him a crumb will satisfy him for now.

“Look at you crushing on a girl.” He laughs before he quickly corrects himself. “On a woman.”

“She’s an incredible woman,” I stress his point. “Intelligent, kind, and she thinks I’m charming.”

His smile carries to his eyes. “Try not to mess it up, Saint.”

“I won’t,” I say with conviction. “I’ll do everything within my power to not fuck this up.”
