“G ood, you’re here. I need to talk to you,” I say to Sawyer the minute he steps inside my office. I’m up, out of my chair, and striding to the door, closing it behind him. I flew him in today to go over a few things with the spa, and then we’re heading to Hudson’s place for the day. Lacy’s mom is going in for an operation, and we need to keep Hudson busy so he doesn’t go mad waiting for news. Lacy has delegated him to stay at home, not allowing him to go to the hospital with them. Too independent for her own good, that girl.

“Okaaaay. You have my attention.” He’s watching me like a hawk, knowing something’s up. I’ve been feeling a mix of emotions all day. I haven’t seen Daisy since the mineral springs yesterday, and we’re deliberately ignoring each other, yet I feel like I’m sitting on the edge of a cliff, ready to jump, because all I can think about is her. My eyes move to the small parcel on my desk. The one that houses arm floaties I bought for her, given swimming isn’t her strong suit and drowning isn’t something I want her to experience.
