Cherringham--Follow the Money (2015)
“Breaking and Entering 11. Breaking and Entering Sarah had grabbed a corner table at Huffington’s, one that she and Jack often used when they wanted to talk about things out of earshot of anyone else in the café.
But Jack hadn’t shown up yet.
Not like him at all.
If he said a half hour, he meant it.
She took another sip of coffee and looked at her watch.
Getting near 40 minutes. She looked at the door and then watched Jack hurry in.
Each time the door opened, a gust of the now-wintry air blew in....
Another reason it was good to be sitting back here; cosy, sheltered, and not too far from the ovens that produced Huffington’s fabulous cakes and pastries.
Jack looked over and with a smile for Lucy at the till, and then to one of the waitresses, he hurried over.
They all knew Jack here.
And — Sarah suspected — most of them were more than a bit smitten.
And that was funny thought. Did she feel a twinge of something else with that awareness?
Something … green?
She pushed away the idea as Jack took his seat.MoreLess
