About Thea Dawson:
Thea Dawson has lived in Rome, Tokyo and London, and spent much of her twenties traveling around the world. Eventually she met the love of her life and settled down in the Pacific Northwest, where she now lives with her husband and three children. After a checkered career which included stints as an English teacher, librarian and editor, she now writes full time, telling tales of romance and adventure.
Chris stood at the door. He
blinked in surprise, then swept her up and down with appreciative eyes.
Self-conscious, she fought the urge to clutch the collar of her robe more
tightly around her neck; she wasn’t going to give him the satisfaction.
“Why, Joy,” Chris gave
her his biggest smile. “I see you were expecting me.”
“I thought you were the UPS guy,” she growled.
“Lucky UPS guy. I
never seriously considered a career as a delivery man, but it’s starting to
look pretty good.” He narrowed his eyes thoughtfully. “Don’t tell me all those
porn movies are based in reality?”
“What porn movies? And
what are you doing here?”
“Ruining some poor UPS
guy’s evening, from the looks of it. And you know, those porn movies with the
lonely housewife and the delivery man.” He scratched his beard. “Come to think
of it, maybe it’s usually a pizza guy.”
She sighed. “Why don’t
you come in before my gossipy neighbors call the tabloids. How did you know
where I live?”
“Your friend Eva
pointed out your house. I’m renting a place just a few streets over,” he
explained as he stepped in, catching the subtlest scent of perfume as he
brushed past her.
His appreciation of
the sight of her had not been faked; the silky robe slid over her curves and
slipped open at the neckline to reveal a touch more cleavage than was probably
intentional. Still, the sight of her in her robe unnerved him in more ways than
one.
“I’m not actually
interrupting anything, am I?” he asked, trying to hide the fear that he was.
“Would it matter if
you were?” she asked drily.
He gave her a look of
surprised innocence. “Hey, if you’ve got a delivery man stashed away somewhere,
just tell me and I’ll get out of your hair. But if you don’t, I actually came
by to see if you wanted to go out for dinner and talk over the production.” His
heart was pounding but he tried to keep his tone casual. Just two old friends
getting together for dinner. No biggie.
“I don’t think so,
Chris. I’m ... pretty wiped out.”
He nodded knowingly.
“On account of that emotionally draining encounter with your ex-husband?”
She gave an
exasperated sigh. “For crying out loud, is there no privacy in this town? How
on earth did you know about that?”
“Sorry,” Chris said
sincerely. “I didn’t mean to spy on you, but I got into town this afternoon and
met up with Simon at that café. We were on the patio, and I saw the two of you
through the glass. You didn’t look happy, so I also came by to see how you were
doing.”
