Gone in Love

I need this promotion.

Too bad I have to temporarily move to a small town to prove I deserve it. And, it’s not as easy as I thought it would be.

My car? Ends up in a ditch.

A hot shower? Interrupted by a snake.

Not to mention the quiet. How do people fall asleep without background noise?

The only good thing about Asheville is the mechanic that comes to my rescue and offers to fix my car. He’s playful, kind, and promises he’s not looking for a relationship, which is great since I won’t be here long. He can show me everything this town has to offer, including “other activities”…with no strings attached.

But how can I keep my eye on the prize when he’s looking at me like I’m his?
