"I’, she lifted a brow and asked, "Why are you in here hiding?"

He started to answer, but cla, "Coward"

She, too, went for the iced tea

His nostrils flared

Trying to hide her smile, Yvette said, "So as that all about?"

Yvette could only stare Seriously? That hat Merissa thought?

If so, she was even uys than Yvette

Cannon stepped in "You want to ride along to the shop, ive some direction on where to put the rest of the boxes? Or do you just want the guys to drop theet a chance?"

"Denver will stay and helpover there"

She finished off her drink "I’ll go along, too, then" Hooking her arh Yvette’s, she said, "Happy to lend a hand"

Cannon caught Yvette before she could leave His attention took in her disheveled hair, her flushed cheeks He brushed dust off the end of her nose "Be careful"
