It's Complicated
Sam rounded the corner to Zoe’s office, but had to do a double take when he saw that it was Katie, and not Zoe, sitting at the desk. “You’re back to working in the office?”
Katie gave him a shy smile. “I have a confession. When I decided to work from home…I was avoiding you.”
Sam pumped a fist in the air. “I knew it!” He grinned. “So, I’ve made it off your blacklist?”
“Blacklist?”
“Yeah, you know, everyone who is on your bad side, and if a hitman took them out, it wouldn’t be the end of the world.”

“How did it go?” Bev asked, handing Katie a sugar cookie. They sat on a couple of tree stumps outside Bev’s tent. “Mayor Freedman dropped these off this morning, so I’m guessing it didn’t go too badly.”“It didn’t go well either,” Katie said, taking a bite. “I didn’t tell him.”“I thought so.” Bev shook her head. “You can’t go on pretending, you know. A life that you want to last can’t be built on lies, and you have built up plenty of them since you got here.”“I haven’t lied about anything except my name,” Katie protested.

Besides, border patrol is to the south and Bev said she and Melinda haven’t seen any patrol cars on the east route.”“Did the witness see if the car was from Colorado?”

Katie woke to the sound of a squeal from downstairs.“Wake up! Christmas is finally here and you won’t believe what’s outside,” Zoe yelled.The sound of Zoe’s feet pounding on the stairs made Katie burrow under her blankets in a vain attempt to hide. If she could just have a few more minutes—The blankets whipped off her. “I’m glad I don’t sleep naked,” Katie said, curling into a shivering ball. “That could have been embarrassing.”“Please,” Zoe said, waving her off. “I knew you wouldn’t be.

Parker watched Ruby hurry out the door. Her long dark hair bounced slightly with each step, and it seemed to glow as she walked into the sunlight. After all these years he still couldn’t help but watch her every move.“Parker, did you want me to bag these up for you?” Rebecca asked. From the way she looked at him, it seemed like maybe it wasn’t the first time she had asked.“Yes, please. Thank you.” As Rebecca rung up the cake and figurines, a flash of light on the counter caught Parker’s eye. He walked over and saw that it was a blue wallet. Tiny jewels sewn into the surface reflected the light that streamed through the window. Parker opened it and saw Ruby’s face staring back at him on her driver’s license. Except the license had e
Borrowing Amor Left to their own Devices
Ruby finished setting the table, then glanced at the place cards she held in her hand. She placed one next to each plate, then when she felt she had the order right, she sat down on the couch to anxiously await the arrival of her dinner guests.After what seemed like hours, Ruby glanced at her phone. It had only been twenty minutes, but she saw she had a text from Sam that she had somehow missed.Sorry, we’re running late.Of course they were. They had probably burned dinner and now had to pick up something on their way over. At least Zoe would be there as a buffer between her and Parker. And if all went well, it would be Zoe that Parker would ask to take home, and Ruby would be off the hook. At least, t

Ruby tried not to stare, but…wow. Parker’s chest wasn’t hairy like a lot of men, and she couldn’t help but wish the table didn’t cover up the abs she caught a glimpse of as he sat down.“You okay?” Parker asked, not bothering to hide his smile as he ate.“Of course,” Ruby mumbled and she forced a bite of enchilada into her mouth. “The view is much better now, thank you.” She paused, realizing what she had just said. “I meant the smell. The smell is much better now—you don’t stink anymore.”Parker’s eyes danced and he took a drink before leaning back in his chair, his hands behind his head, and a sati
