Оглавление“Did you let your father know that you’re looking for Sarah?”
A muscle worked in Carson’s jaw and he shifted. “I did.”
“And?” she prompted, sipping her coffee.
“He was a little too touched,” Carson said. “Even though I made it clear I’m not doing this to find his supposed second great love. I’m doing it to prove that he’ll feel absolutely nothing for this woman so he can go back to living his life.”
“What if he does feel something?” Olivia asked. “Yes, I know, power of suggestion, blah, blah, blah. But you can’t fake chemistry, a pull toward someone, a quickening of your pulse, an inexplicable draw.”
She knew because she felt it with Carson. She couldn’t stop stealing peeks at him—the strong profile, the broad shoulders, the muscular thighs.
“It would be pretty random for my father to meet some stranger and fall instantly in love. I have no doubt he’ll feel toward Sarah Mack the way he feels when he meets anyone. The earth won’t move.”
“What if it does?” she asked.
He looked at her, clearly frustrated. “It won’t.”
She couldn’t help a chuckle. “You sure are set in your ways.”
“You are, too.”
“Nope,” she said. “I’m open to possibility.”
