Bed And Breakfast
“We had almost finished taking the old pipes apart before putting in new ones. I was on my hands and knees beside Steve when I heard an unfamiliar voice, a man’s voice.
“Hello?” he said through the screen door of the kitchen.
I jumped, bumping my head under the sink. “Oh!” I said, holding the back of my head.
A very handsome man stood at the screen door. He was so good-looking that he could have been a movie star. His hair was blond and his eyes sparkled blue. Something about him made me feel bo...th thrilled and nervous.

“Call me Brent,” he said. He looked down at his hand. It, too, was now dirty with slime.MoreLess
