Chapter 16

The sick feeling in Carly’s belly wouldn’t leave. Her heart hurt and she wanted to cry, but she refused to shed another tear.

Why was this affecting her the way it was? Because it was one more notch in a belt of disappointments and betrayal?

Or was it because secretly she’d thought, He’s the one.

Disgusted with herself, she showered and got ready for the day. She’d probably just stay home and write, but it would make her feel better, like a fresh clean start. She slipped into her royal blue bra and panties… Dressing up in pretty lingerie was like comfort food.

Speaking of comfort food, she really wanted some peanut butter M&M’s. After she pulled on a T-shirt, jeans, and a pair of sandals, she raided her cabinet and grabbed a handful of the treat she went to when she needed a boost to her day.

Dillon called and she pressed the end button to send the call to voicemail. Would the guy ever give up? Maybe he still hadn’t realized what he did. Maybe he still thought he sent that message to Sue.

Well, he was just going to have to figure it out.

Around ten there was a knock at the door. Heat flushed over her. She’d told Dillon to get out of her life. What was he doing back?

She walked to the door and said, “Go. Away.”

“Carly?” It was Geoff. “What’s going on?”

She sighed and unlocked the door. Geoff stood on the steps, a puzzled look on his face.

“Sorry.” She gave him a half smile. “Thought you were someone else.”

“That cowboy?” he asked.

She shrugged. “What’s up?”

“I’m headed to Nogales for the day.” He smiled. “Thought I’d see if you’d mind keeping me company along the way.”

Head tilted to the side, she thought about it for a moment. She wasn’t one for vengeance, but she wanted to just get out of there. “I could use a day away from home.”

“Good.” He smiled. “When can you be ready?”

“All I need to do is to grab my purse.” She turned. “Hold on a moment,” she added over her shoulder. He stood in the doorway and she returned with her messenger purse over her shoulder and mustered up a smile. “I’m ready to go.”

Her phone rang again and she glanced at it and saw that it was Dillon. Persistent jerk. She sent it to voicemail then put her phone on silent.

After she locked the door behind her, she headed to Geoff’s SUV and climbed in. He didn’t help her in like Dillon always did. The thought saddened her then anger quickly followed. What good was a polite cowboy if he was a cheating cowboy?

The SUV was luxurious and she sank back into the fine leather seat. “Nice ride,” she said.

He backed up the vehicle. “Might be a bit much for out here, but it’s what I drove in Tucson and I didn’t want to buy something new.”

She wasn’t really in the mood for polite chatter and began to wonder why she’d said yes to going with him.
