EXCERPT

“Iris to the front, please. Iris to the front.” Carol’s voice, brimming with excitement and a little amusement, comes over the speakers. I frown. What is she up to? Tuesdays tend to be slow after a hectic weekend and Monday shoppers, so what does she need? Did I lose track of time?
I set a box of tomatoes on the rolling cart for restocking and wipe my hands on my smock. Sidestepping this morning’s produce delivery, I head to the front.
As soon as I pass the heavy service doors, something flutters in my chest. Dante, looking shockingly handsome in a forest-green pullover, chats away with Carol. She’s especially bubbly, which means she’s flirting with him.
He looks directly at me as he finishes his conversation. “Excuse me,” he says, without breaking eye contact then starts in my direction. My cheeks warm, and my insides do a few BeyoncĂ© moves as snippets of the other night flash through my head.
Carol swivels around to check him out as he walks away, her gaze centering on the back of his jeans. Her hair slips off her shoulder as she leans across the counter to keep watching. The twinge, coming from somewhere deep inside me, slows my steps. We’ve grown close in the time she’s been at the store, so I’m not shocked when she puts her fingertips to her mouth as she flicks the other hand. Yeah, no denying Dante is hot, but I can’t appreciate her teasing this time. Right now I want to smack her. I guess the fact Dante and I have been naked together changes some things.
“Hey.” His casual greeting makes my pulse skip a beat. A killer smile plays peek-a-boo, popping up for just a few seconds before melting away. Long enough to let me blow off the rest of Carol’s antics without plotting any serious payback.
“Hi.” My voice gives out, only sharing the H in my greeting. I clear my throat, forcing myself not to wring my fingers or blush. “You looking for Conrado?”
He looks around at the fruits and vegetables section before turning toward dairy. “I don’t look like I’m shopping?” he asks in his cool, laidback manner.
I raise a brow then take Carol’s lead, checking him out under a thinly veiled pretense. “No basket, no cart, no list,” I tick off on my fingers. “So no.”
A ghost of a smile touches his lips. “Okay, maybe not. But I’d like a word with you, in private.”
