“This, too?” Bryn asked.
    The woman blushed and answered with a quiet, “Yes.”
    “It’s fabulous, in case you were wondering.” Bryn hoped to relieve some of her customer’s embarrassment. “And he’s the sweetest guy. You’ll have to come meet him at our next meet-and-greet event.” Bryn wrapped the items in tissue and put them into a bag. “Thanks so much. Have a great day.”
    “I will.”
    Bryn thought for sure she’d seen a devious twinkle in the woman’s eye. It felt good to provide their customers with products they wanted and needed that weren’t so easy to shop for. Classy ’n’ Sassy Lingerie had been built on the principle of providing customers with quality products and catering to all sorts. The changes they’d made over the last few months had only enhanced the shopping experience for their clientele. It felt good to know they were making people happy.
    If only she could find a way to make herself completely happy again.
    The door chime sounded, and in strode a man in a baseball cap with a vase of brightly colored flowers in his hands. “Delivery for Bryn Harper.”
    “That’s me.”
    He set the arrangement on the counter, a beautiful array of vibrant yellow sunflowers, orange lilies, some tall blue stuff, and a pink flower she didn’t know the name of. It had to be from Eli.
    “Oooh. Are those for you?” Mia was back in the shop. “Read the card!”
    Bryn,
    Thank you for another wonderful evening last night. I always have fun with you. Hoping we can see each other again soon.
    Eli
    Bryn handed it to Mia. “What do I do?”
    “What do you want to do?”
    “The hell if I know.” But she knew what she should do, at least in that moment. “I’m gonna call him.”
    “I’ll hold down the fort.”
    Bryn closed herself into her office and sat at her desk. Why was it so hard to call Eli and say thank you? She reached for the receiver, but put it back down. Maybe she should practice what she was going to say first. Thanks for the flowers, but I think we need to cool things down. That sounded horrible. How was she supposed to express her gratitude for the flowers and end things at the same time? Impossible. So she took the coward’s way out and left her office.
    “MOMMY!” CAMMIE yelled, and ran up to Bryn as she stepped inside her parents’ house.
    They still lived in her childhood home in Kenville, just a few blocks away from the house she and Johnny had purchased after Jax was born. She loved the town, the people, the quiet. City life wasn’t for her. It was more Mia. Her best friend liked living in downtown Newford. Plus it was smart to have one of them live close to the store in case of an emergency. Bryn preferred to be near her parents, especially after Johnny died.
    She folded her little girl into her arms. “Hi, Baby Bean. How was your day?”
    “Fun. Grandma and Grandpa took us to the park. It was really hot so we got to go in the sprinkler pool.”
    “Cool.” Sometimes Bryn really hated missing out on fun stuff with her kids, but at least they got to enjoy their summer vacation with their grandparents instead of at a daycare center. “Round up your brothers so we can go home. It’s bath night.”
    The little girl ran off, screaming her brothers’ names.
    “There’s my Brynny.” Her mom came into the foyer, kitchen towel over her shoulder.
    “Kids good for you today?”
    “Of course. They told me you went out again last night with that Eli. Two nights in a row.”
    Bryn tightened her jaw. Her mom was great, wonderful, best mom and grandma ever, except about this one damn thing. “Yes, I did.”
    “How was it?”
    Her mother hadn’t asked because she cared and wanted to know if she’d had a good time. She was being nosy. And not in a good way.
    “It was fine. Good.” Might as well tell her what she wants to hear. “But I probably won’t be seeing him again.”
    “You know that’s for the best. You shouldn’t be dating anyway.”
