Bonus Content
The code word you need for the scavenger hunt is in this section…
Zurie stepped to the side with him, feeling like she wanted to disappear. But she needed to get over it and apologize for dumping coffee on him.
She set the half-empty plastic cup on the condiment station, dropped the soggy napkins in the trash and snatched dry ones from the dispenser. “I’m so sorry.” She dabbed the wet spot on his shirt. “I can’t believe I was so clumsy.”
Mace took hold of her hand and the damp napkin. “It was an accident.”
As the warmth of his fingers seeped into hers, Zurie’s heart rate kicked up. But then she started free-falling into his gaze. Something that calmed and excited her al at once almost tempted her into leaning into him. “But I’ve ruined your shirt.”
“I can wash it. I’m just glad it wasn’t hot coffee.”
His mouth curved upward into a wider smile that was even more intoxicating than his eyes.
Tall, hot… And her mind didn’t need to go there. This was Mace—
Tristan’s good friend, whom she used to tutor when he was in high school.
She pulled her hand from his and stepped back. Droplets of coffee had landed on the front of his loose black athletic shorts and running shoes. She’d real y made a mess of his clothes. “Now you’re going to have to take everything off.”
Mace’s brows shot up. “Excuse me?”
“I meant, you’ll have take off your clothes at home when you’re alone…without me…because that’s what you’ll have to do to…you know…clean them.”
What in the WORLD had she just said, and did it sound as outrageous to him as it had to her?
His amused, puzzled expression answered the question.
“I need to go. Rina’s waiting for me.” Zurie headed for the exit.
Mace stood in line at Brewed Haven, ignoring the curious glances at his shirt, but the scents of coffee, chocolate and caramel wafting from him were harder to overlook.
The replay of Zurie bumping into him ran through his mind. Well, damn. That hadn’t gone as expected. He’d just wanted to say hello to her. Actual y, he’d wanted to confirm it was real y Zurie. Seeing her away from Tillbridge and wearing casual clothes was unusual.
