“It was a way to take my mind off Dad being sick and . . . Anyway. I kept doing it and the girls were born, so I had to keep cooking and baking.”

A way to take his mind off his dad and me. “Why don’t your girls know about us?” I bit the inside of my cheek, but it was pointless. The question was out.

As close as we were, I could see the deeper-blue striations in his irises. He clenched his jaw and looked away. “Why would I talk about my ex with my girls?”

“I get that, Rhys, but come on. I’m not just any ex.” And he’d been divorced for years.

“You want to know why I didn’t brag about dating country music darling June Bee?”

When he said it like that, I sounded arrogant. Country music darling. That was me. My next album was supposed to catapult me all the way to the top. If I could write it. “I just thought since Bethany and Hannah are fans . . .”

“All girls their age are,” he said flatly. “But my ex isn’t.”

“Gotcha.” His ex probably wasn’t the only reason he’d stayed quiet on the subject of June Bee. I doubt he wanted to talk about me with anyone. Was it the stress of staying behind that had turned him off me so hard? Did he resent me for leaving? Or did he resent me for hanging on when he’d wanted a clean break?

I’d never know, and I’d moved on.

I looked around his kitchen. Somehow I hadn’t moved far.

He strode to my luggage and lifted my bags. “The guest room is down the hallway off the living room. You can bring your water.”

I lifted the glass in a salute. When he disappeared, I refilled the cup. Then I went for my guitar. I sucked in a deep breath and followed Rhys deeper into the house.

Fifteen years after our one night in the cabin, I was sleeping under the same roof as him again. In different beds, in different rooms. Only this time I would go to sleep knowing there wasn’t a future for us.
