“See you tomorrow?” Andrea appeared in front of her, purse already over her shoulder.
Jess gave a tight smile. “See you tomorrow. Can you lock the front door behind you when you leave? I’m going out the back.”
“Sure. Bye.”
The bell over the door jangled loudly as Andrea shut the door firmly behind her. She’d certainly made a fast exit tonight. Maybe she had something important to do. Maybe she had someone important to get home to. Jess wasn’t sure if she missed that feeling or not.
She had only just left reception when a loud knock at the front door drew her back. “Is that you, Andrea?” she called out. “Did you forget something?”
She unlocked the dead bolt in the door and opened it, expecting to see Andrea’s face.
What she found instead made her trip over her own feet.
If she hadn’t been holding the door, she’d have ended up on her ass...in front of him.
Sean Paterson.
Just as gorgeous as she remembered.
Only instead of his winning smile and twinkling eyes, today his brow was creased and his mouth tight. His hair was flat and mussed—no product in it to style it into the spikes he’d worn on Saturday.
But his harried appearance and worried expression didn’t stop her stomach from ending up somewhere near her throat.
“What are you doing here?” she blurted, shock getting the better of her. One-night-stand-Sean was supposed to be long gone by now. Moved on to a new city and a new conquest. That was the thought that had been sustaining her each time she relived how badly she’d handled things on Saturday night. At least I never have to see him again.
“Jess, I’m sorry. I didn’t know what else to do. Suzie chewed a pack of headache pills.”
Beside him, Hailey and Rob’s golden retriever woofed happily at Jess. The dog’s tail banged against the window as she tried to stuff herself inside the door, past the man blocking the way. She had to be the only dog in the world that actually wanted to go to the vet.
Jess stepped back and opened the door wider, ignoring the leap in her pulse. “Well, then, you’d better come in.”
