a good old-fashioned Scottish gathering in the suburbs of Seattle, of course.
But this gathering presents another set of problems…

Excerpt
I put my hand on
his arm. "I'm serious, Austin. You gave me an opening the day we met, a
shot at something between us. I shut you down then, afraid it was too soon.
"When our
eyes met at the party, I realized my mistake. Maybe I didn't have all the time
left I thought I did. Maybe I didn't have any at all. And if that were the
case, what would I regret?" My pulse raced almost as frantically as it had
at the party. "When I looked in your eyes, I was almost knocked off my
feet with the connection between us. I can't explain it. But there's something between
us."
He didn't say
anything for a moment, just stared into his glass, head down, ignoring his
phone. I couldn't read his face or his thoughts. I supposed I deserved that.
It's amazing the scenarios the mind can run through in the breadth of seconds.
I braced myself for rejection. Well, it was my turn, wasn't it?
Finally, he
finished his drink, set it next to him, and leaned forward with his elbows on
his thighs. He looked over at me. "You felt it, too? I thought you
did." He grinned, sweetly tentative. "What are you thinking?"
I put my hand on
his knee. "I think we deserve to explore it."
"I thought
that's what we're doing." His voice was soft with emotion.
"I thought
that's the game we were playing."
I felt
convicted. I hadn't meant to lead him on. Had he seen through me? Had he
realized before I did that on the surface we were pretending for the public,
but beneath it, the relationship was real.
"I don't
want to play games, anymore." I held his gaze.
"So you're
saying?"
"We make
this real." I felt the urgency to get the words out before I lost my
nerve. "That we do more than pretend. We date for real. And…see what
happens." My mouth went dry. I wished I hadn't polished off my drink so
cavalierly.
