EXCERPT
Paige followed to the archway that signaled the end
of the kitchen, and then she stopped short. Jed was sitting on the ground, next
to Ava, and had begun playing with her grungy stuffed cat, talking to it as if
it were real. The image triggered memories of dreams—of her and Jed and their
happily-ever-after—she’d long since let die.
She could not—would not—allow them to resurface.
Two heartbreaks in one lifetime were more than
enough. Besides, by summer’s end, she’d be back in Chicago, with its museums,
restaurants and shopping malls.
Upon seeing Paige, he stood and sort of hovered
there, as if uncertain where to land. He eventually chose the edge of the couch
where her mom hadn’t piled laundry.
Paige took his place on the floor, largely to
distance herself from him.
She grabbed some board books from her backpack and
handed one over. Ava started flipping through the pages, repeating random words
from memory.
That entertained the adults for a bit, but soon
the conversation, which had already felt stilted, stalled.
Jed shifted. He scratched at the back of his neck,
looked at her and then at Mom, with his brow pinching in that way it always did
when he was trying to come up with something to say but had reached a blank.
But then he grabbed a cookie and shoved half of it into his mouth.
Paige was tempted to do the same, if only to
distract herself from the much-too-handsome man sitting in her mother’s living
room.
It was almost like old times.
But if her divorce had taught her anything, it was
that she had no business dabbling in romance. The deeper one fell, the more it
hurt when everything came undone. And based on the way her breath stalled every
time his chocolate eyes latched on to hers, she was dangerously close to
regressing back to her teenage years, when Jed’s crooked smile and laughing
eyes had threatened to steal her reason. She’d responded to her ex-husband in
much the same way and had allowed his sweet talk and promises of forever blind
her to some major red flags.
