Making sure guests were enjoying the tea was something that I enjoyed doing. And it would take my mind off my worries.

Later, after seeing that the tea was going well, I went to my office to check in with Rhonda.

“I’m ready to go home,” she said. “Next week is going to be busy with not one wedding but two.”

“As soon as the tea service wraps up, I’ll leave,” I said. “Have a nice evening.”

“You, too,” she said. “See you tomorrow.”

“Hi,” said Nell. “The water’s great. Come on in.”

“I’ll be right there. I’m ready for some downtime.” I went inside to change my clothes, eager to relax.

I’d just put on my swimsuit when my cell rang. Vaughn.

Frowning, I picked up the call. “Hi, Vaughn. What’s up?”

“There’s been a terrible accident,” he said. “Clint and I have been taken to the Tampa General Hospital. You and Nell better come up.”
