After stopping for burgers, we hit the road again.When Sampulls into the parking lot of our next destination, I get excited—Anastacia’sSalon and Spa.I haven’t had a spa day in forever.
“I see you like this one.”Sam chuckles.
“I’m a woman.The spa is like sacred ground to us.”
“You’re going to be here a while, so pace yourself.”
“Yes, boss.”
He smiles, highlighting how gorgeous he is.He hasstrawberry-blond hair, his eyes are a light shade of blue, but his features aredamn near perfect like all the others.
“You have a girlfriend, Sam?”
“No.Why?”
“Huh.”
I wonder if Sandy would like him.She only had a passingfancy for Brick.It didn’t last beyond that first night.
“Forget it, Casey,” Sam warns.
“What?”
“Donotfix me up with your friend.”
“How do you know that’s what I was thinking?”
“I can see the wheels turning in your head.You forget thatI’ve been following you for months.”
