In her solitary life she eats alone and daydreams about having a handsome boyfriend who could accept all of her. Daily she finds herself running to catch her bus and knowing that she is the laughing stock of the other commuters. And then one day she literally finds herself ‘falling’ into the lap of one of the commuters; an exotically handsome white man. Tory finds that she is unable to stop thinking about him and daydreaming about the life he must live. But Mr. Gorgeous must be either married or gay because she sees him dismissing the attention of gorgeous women left and right. Never in a million years would she ever guess that hers was the only attention he was interested in… In this multicultural romance, Pepper Pace weaves a story that takes her readers through the ups and downs of personal insecurities, cultural differences, and of course a lesson to be learned; that love is totally and completely blind.

Chapter 21: YOUR ROUTE

"I want you to take me the route that you walk every morning...or should I say run?"

"I'm never going to live that down."

"You got a bus schedule? I'm going to take you out on the town, love."

"Oh?" She grabbed her purse and keys then searched for her bus schedule. When they had everything, she looped her arm around his and led him out the door. He didn't put away his cane and seemed to concentrate more, yet he was still talkative and asked her questions about her neighborhood. It only took them five minutes to get to the bus stop which was only around the block from her home.

He turned to her seriously. "I can come visit you Tory. This is very simple to navigate." She looked over her shoulder at the street.

"You'll have to cross that one street, and there's no stop sign or light."

"But it's a residential neighborhood, which means less traffic."

"True." He nodded. "It can be done, though they need to put a stop sign there."
