ME: I know that name

PIPER: THE AUTHOR

PIPER: THE GUY WHO WRITES THE SEXY SEXY BOOKS

PIPER: THE GUY HOLLEY SET ME UP WITH TWO WEEKS AGO

ME: Oh. That’s awkward.

PIPER: AWKWARD? AWWAKRD?

ME: Can you stop yelling at me?

PIPER: London, I fucked the guy and ran out before he woke up BEFORE WE MET ON THE DATE. Then I slept with him again. Now he wants me to help him with his next book.

ME: Oh.

PIPER: Yeah. What do I do?

ME: Depends what the research is…

PIPER: Baking.

ME: I was hoping for something a little more exciting than that.

PIPER: Amen to that.

ME: Hold that thought. Let me send Leo with Chris, and I’ll be right there. We need to talk this over.

PIPER: PLS BRING ALCOHOL

PIPER: LOTS AND LOTS OF ALCOHOL

I didn’t think that was a good idea. I’d bet lots and lots of alcohol was why she was in this situation in the first place…

“Hey, what’s up?” Ollie approached the porch. “You look like you just got good news.”

I grinned. “You know that date Holley set Piper up on a couple of weeks ago? The guy who did a signing at the bookstore?”

He frowned. “Donovan someone?”

“Maverick Donovan.” I nodded. “Well, Piper took him to pound town more than once, and now he’s in her bakery asking for her help with his next book.”

“Oh. That’s… awkward?”

I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face. “I know. This is going to be amazing.”
