  Jack inserted himself into the conversation. “Ah, Ms. Sedgwick, I’m sure she has a good excuse, or does Ms. Smith need a note from her mother?”

  The woman frowned at him. “Well, I never!”

  “Never what?” he asked innocently.

  Laurie did a lousy job hiding her smile behind pursed lips.

  As the organizer snatched the basket and hurried away, Laurie’s laughter burst out. “Thank goodness, she left. I almost laughed in her face.” She touched his arm. “Thank you. Salia Sedgwick is a handful…”

  “A handful of what? Pudding? Meanness? Squishy resentment?”

  “All of the above,” she said, presenting her hand again. There was something light about her, and as he leaned forward, he could smell a hint of lilacs, as if she’d been rubbing the silky petals on her skin and hair.

  This time, his hand connected with hers. As his palm engulfed her tiny fingers, a small bolt of electricity raced up his arm. Perhaps he could stay at this event for a little while longer.

  “Hooyah! Hooyah! Hooyah!” The sound of the crowd grew louder, chanting as glasses were raised. The noise grew until his ears rang, yet it didn’t stop him from trying to speak over it.

  “My name is Jack.”
