Dani grinned in the way a best friend does when they know they’ve gotten you the perfect birthday present. “Think about that and when you’re ready to give him your number, come back out. Don’t let me see you crawl back into that vanilla shell.”

Danica snapped the tiny handbag shut, popped her lips in the mirror, gave her boobs a boost, and walked out the door.

She was right, and Ness knew it. But I could see her wavering. Denying herself what she wanted.

Been there, done that. Got the scars.

If another woman could learn from my mistakes, I had to try to help her. Maybe Danica had it right and getting involved in other people’s love lives was the best way to ignore my own.
