Helping,” the man scolds, turning his baseball cap around so the brim hangs over the back of his hair. “You’re the one with a cat who’s too dumb to stay in the house.” Dude, if he falls and dies, it’s totally your fault for letting him out.” The other boy, who has a shock of blond hair, tosses his board onto the grass and cranes his neck toward the ball of fur in the tree. I have a basketball tourney this weekend and my dad’ll kill me if I get injured,” one of the boys says, dropping his skateboard and stepping on one end so it flips back into his hand. The boys are doing their best to mask their nerves with a façade of bravado. All three stare up at one of the trees.įrom my vantage point, I can’t see much except a whisp of what looks like orange fur on a high branch. My fugitive stands with a pair of preteen boys each holding a skateboard under one arm. I head around the side of the building to where the tiny parking lot only has room for a handful of cars. The result is patchy brown areas where the grass doesn’t get enough sun and trees that block out the sky in places. A small square of grass sits on each side of the front walkway, which leads to the sidewalk where the city hasn’t trimmed the overgrown trees in years. The library is a one-story building on a corner. I should’ve asked his daughter for his name so I could yell it. That gives me a couple minutes to track this man down. Glancing back, I see Seth dutifully walking toward the story area, his shoulders hunched like I’ve sent him to the gallows.

That’s when I realize there’s more to him than meets the eye. He’s made it clear good girls aren’t his type.īut he shows up–with his strapping shoulder, a box of tissues and a supersized bag of Doritos. Holden isn’t the kind of guy to care about tears and feelings, least of all mine. I only typed that invitation to his brawny biceps and perfect pectorals for fun–I never meant to hit send. Until I need a shoulder to cry on after drowning my heartbreak in too many margaritas. Especially when the player is the sinfully handsome, foul-mouthed Holden Sanders… my new library assistant.The benched bad boy needed an image makeover, I needed to save my job, and his star status was just what the library ordered to raise awareness for our fundraising campaign.
