by Bristol, Sidney


  “I’d appreciate that, thank you.” Shelby juggled the soda and her purse, at least until Kade took the drink so she could dig out her phone. “Thank goodness. I don’t know what I’d do without it.”

  “Right?” He chuckled. “I’m so damn tied to my phone these days. Ready?”

  “You said your name was Cain?”

  “Kade, actually.”

  “I am so sorry.” Shelby closed her eyes and shook her head.

  “Don’t worry about it. You were close.”

  “Was not.” She laughed. “You’re way too nice.”

  “Well, hey, at least now I know you won’t forget it a second time.”

  “You’re likely right. Kade, K-A-D-E?”

  “You got it.” He rattled off his phone number, glad to see her smiling in earnest.

  It was a bad idea to trade numbers. He knew it was a bad idea. Liability alone was enough reason not to. But he’d experienced loss like that. He knew what it was like to be hit with the realization that he was still living, when so many of his friends hadn’t made it.

  “Don’t forget this.” He passed the can of soda back to her.

  “Thanks, maybe I can repay you sometime?”

  “Not necessary.” Though he’d be hard pressed to tell her no, if it came down to it. “Is this your bus? Or are you waiting for the next one?”

  “No, that should be me.” Shelby offered him her hand. “Thanks, Kade.”

  “Just doing my job.”

  Right.

  His job.

  Up until the point he’d crossed that line.

  Man, he was a sucker sometimes, but at least he’d made her smile.

  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  It can never be said that NYT & USA Today Bestselling author Sidney Bristol has had a ‘normal’ life. She is a recovering roller derby queen, former missionary, and tattoo addict. She grew up in a motor-home on the US highways (with an occasional jaunt into Canada and Mexico), traveling the rodeo circuit with her parents. Sidney has lived abroad in both Russia and Thailand, working with children and teenagers. She now lives in Texas where she splits her time between a job she loves, writing, reading and fostering cats.
