Chapter 25

“Mother’s message also let me know she was going to look at a condominium with you. What did you think of Aspen Reach?”

I fell into step with him, and we walked toward his mother’s house. “The community is okay.”

“Only okay?”

I grinned at him, but he didn’t grin back.

“What about the condo?”

“Barring any unforeseen difficulties—and I don’t think there will be any, they’re desperate to unload it—it’s mine.”

Mrs. Mann paused and glanced over her shoulder. “Goodness knows Francesca worked hard enough to sell it. And that wasn’t all she was selling.”

“Francesca?”

“Yeah. And you should have—” I was a couple of steps past him before I realized he wasn’t beside me. I turned to face him. “Quinn?”

“Should I be jealous?” He brushed back the hair that was always falling over his forehead and into his eyes. He didn’t wait for an answer, just pushed past me and strode up the steps.
