“Aw.” Cara had hearts in her eyes. “So? Who is he?”

I was back in the car, stuck on the train tracks with Locomotive Cara bearing down on me. “Oh. Um . . . you wouldn’t know him.”

I ran some fresh water to clean the dirty glasses I’d picked up earlier. Tenor broke from Jason and chatted with another customer, leaning down instead of towering over the guy. Gah. My boss was so considerate.

Cara put her elbow on the bar top and rested her face in her hand. “Try me.”

I scrubbed at an imaginary smudge on a glass. “He’s not from Bozeman.” I tried for an apologetic smile.
Brock’s eyes narrowed on the way I was frantically washing the same clean glass. “It’s a small world. Who is he?” My ex's tone was cajoling. He thought he had me.

Dang, he did have me.

This wasn’t fair. He was the one who’d brought his fiancée, my former best friend, into the place
where he’d known there was a possibility of seeing me. I would not admit I was single. I would not give him the satisfaction of knowing he was right. I would not give him even an inkling that my social life had gotten even less thrilling than when we’d been together.

Tenor came around the bar. “Hey, Ruby. How’s it going tonight?”

His deep voice washed over me, but it only fueled my determination. “Hi, Tenor.”

Cara’s gaze turned awestruck as she took him in. “Tenor?” She giggled. “What kind of name is that? It’s so . . . unique.”

The way her voice pitched up scraped against my patience, warning me what would come next. A hidden insult. A snide remark. My pulse pounded at my temples. I might lose my job for this, but it was either that or jump the counter, knock her to the floor, and slap my hands over her mouth.

“Isn’t it a great name?” I slid an arm around Tenor’s waist. He stiffened, a hard wall of muscle. “Also, meet my plus-one. Tenor’s my boyfriend.”

Oh god, oh god, oh god. What had I done?
