Blake looked up at the sound of footsteps approaching his bedroom door...expecting to find Alex waiting on the other side...since he'd been sitting alone on his bed since the previous night without receiving a single phone call or text message from the woman who'd broken his heart...as well as his body. He swallowed deeply when he saw Sandy enter the doorway wearing a sleeveless dress in navy blue that accented her olive skin tone beautifully...with her brown hair pulled back in a loose ponytail that accentuated her flawless complexion. Then she walked slowly towards him until they stood face to face...staring into his eyes for several seconds before smiling hesitantly and extending her hand in greeting. "Hi."
