see it.” He sounded grouchy.

      Maybe because he’d just woken up.

      Maybe because he was obviously still hungover.

      Considering the high hopes she’d had for the morning, things felt on a downhill slide.

      She crossed the scuffed wooden floor and opened the wooden shutters so that more natural light filled the living area. “The house was built in 1910, and has undergone a few renovations since. The kitchen has been modernized and two bedrooms were added on in the 1980s.”

      His expression was unreadable as he wandered around. But at least he didn’t look entirely disinterested, as he had with the last house they’d toured. While he headed down the hall toward the bedrooms, she went to the kitchen to leave her business card on the counter. She gave him some time to explore on his own, then slowly followed.

      She found him in the master bedroom.

      “This one of the modernizations you mentioned?” He pointed his thumb upward toward the ceiling mirror positioned directly over the enormous bed.

      Billie felt her cheeks heat. How she could have forgotten about that detail was beyond her. “Actually, the mirror dates back to the original house.”

      His lips twitched. “Interesting design choice.”

      “Better or worse than a purple horse?”

      He slid his sunglasses down until his brown eyes met hers. “Now, darlin’, do you really want me to answer that?”

      She straightened her shoulders and channeled her mom’s sternest expression. “Perhaps not.”

      He laughed softly. Which made mincemeat out of all of her channeling and straightening. Didn’t matter in the least that he was a client and completely off-limits. Not to mention completely out of her league. He ruffled her.

      She edged her way out of the bedroom. “Would you like to see the outbuildings?”

      He seemed to consider it for half a minute. Then nodded slowly. “Yeah. I would.”

      It was more than she’d expected. And her enthusiasm for the morning came back brighter than ever. “All right, then. If you’d like to follow me...”

      “Nothing I’d rather do, darlin’.”

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
