Chapter Four

Later that night, Tabitha tossed and turned in bed, trying desperately to fall asleep and stop replaying the night and that kiss. That kiss.

There was no turning it off. The memory played in a loop, tormenting her. She couldn’t remember a kiss that had affected her so deeply. The chemistry was through the roof, but it had been more than that. It had felt like coming home. Like after years of being at sea, she’d found her port in the storm.

She shook her head as she stared at the ceiling. That was ridiculous. She was being melodramatic. But there was no denying the sensations that his kiss had given her…even if they were extreme.

If she was being honest with herself, it wasn’t just the kiss that had knocked her off her feet. It was his words earlier too. The way he’d spoken about her dream man. About finding someone deserving, someone who treated her right.

Had he been speaking about himself?

She threw a pillow over her face and groaned. Did it matter? He could consider himself the Queen of Sheba and it wouldn’t change the fact that he was exactly the type of guy she’d sworn to avoid. And now she was kind of working with the guy, temporarily living with him, and had just spent one of the best days she could remember with him, laughing and flirting like they were on a date.

She’d had one vow—one! And she was failing miserably.

Glancing at her nightstand clock, she cursed out loud. It was too late to call Elise or Katerina and what she really needed was some good, solid advice from the two people who knew her best.

Although, she knew them well enough to be able to guess what they’d say. Elise would probably tell her to go for it. She’d say that he wasn’t like all the others. She’d point out how thoughtful he’d been, how sweet and charming. She’d probably tell her to give him a chance, see where things went.

Katerina, on the other hand, she’d be sensible. She’d weigh the pros and cons. Pro? He’d already proven himself more reliable than Will financially, at least—he had come through on his promise to pay for the room upfront, after all. Con? She didn’t know him very well. He’d said it himself, there were things she didn’t know about him. But, then again, he was the one who’d pointed that out. He was the one who’d slowed things down so they could get to know each other.

Tabitha stared up at the ceiling in shock as she realized that both of her friends would probably give her the thumbs up to go on this date.

Which was good, since she’d already said yes.

Clasping her hands together in front of her chest, she said a silent prayer that she wasn’t making the biggest mistake of her life.
