Оглавление“You haven’t changed, Gabby.”
Her stomach plunked to her feet.
“I resent that.”
“Why?”
“Why?” Since Cal had left town, she’d shaved off twenty pounds and had grown out the curly hair she used to control by keeping it shaped like a spongy football helmet around her head. Sadly she was missing a fashion chromosome, so her wardrobe had transformed only to the extent that she now bought smaller size jeans and tucked in the blouses she wore to work. Still, she had made a true attempt this past decade and a half to look better, and it was beyond frustrating to discover that her makeover made no impression at all on someone who hadn’t seen her since shortly after she’d turned in her high school cap and gown.
“No thirty-three-year-old woman wants to be told she seems the same as she did at eighteen.”
Cal walked toward her. “I liked you fine at eighteen.”
He kept coming until they were inches apart, and Gabby felt every nerve sizzle.
