Can’t download my brain. Suck it up, buttercup. You’ll have to wait till six.

Zeke peeked his head around the barn door. “Are you coming? There are way too many beautiful women with hammers in here. You gotta save me.”

At least his best friend was an equal opportunity flirt. He loved women of all ages and sizes. He always made them feel like the most important person in the room. Logan wished he had that kind of easiness with fans.

For him, people invaded his space and always seemed to know way too much about him to make him feel comfortable. And now…

He forced his mind to shut down. No, he wasn’t going to think about Aimee Collen again today.

His phone buzzed in his hand. He looked down at her text and grinned. He could hear Izzy’s clipped voice in his head.

Fine. I’ll see you at six.

Logan shoved his phone back into his pocket and hauled his rolling trunk out of the flatbed. A pair of hands appeared at the end of the trunk. He looked up. “Hey, Cam.”

“I’m glad you guys came out this afternoon. Mayor Darcy said you wouldn’t be rehearsing until later tonight.”

“Thought I’d get here early and get the kinks worked out.” Lindsey York and Cole Deveraux were coming in that night and he wanted them to be able to rehearse, not wait around for technical issues.

“There are plenty to unkink. Bella was here earlier to make sure the electrician did his job.”

Logan snorted. “Why does it not surprise me that she’d micromanage?”

Cam grinned. “Just be glad you’re not the electrician.”

“I’d bet my sixty-seven Les Paul that she probably knew just as much about the wiring as the professional.”

“I don’t take sucker bets.”

“Smart man.” Logan paused. “How well do you know Izzy?”

Cam’s brow quirked. “Bella? A fair bit, I guess. She’s headstrong, smart…”

“Smokin’ hot.”

“There is that.” Cam looked down at the trunk, then back up at Logan. “Why?”

“We’ll be working pretty closely for the next few days. Am I going to have someone in my face about taking up her time?”

“Is that a roundabout way of asking me if she’s dating someone?”

Logan cleared his throat. He wanted to deny it, but that was one lie he couldn’t tell himself right now. “Yeah, I guess it is.”

Cam curled his fingers around the trunk. “Again, I’m going to ask why?”

Logan shoved the trunk back a few inches and braced his hip against it. “Is there something I should know, Cam?”

“No.” He looked away. “Bella and I are just friends.”

“But you want more? What the hell are you waiting for, man?” He asked the question even as his neck tightened and he crossed his arms, tucking his fists under his biceps. Cam was a good guy. Just the kind of guy that should be dating—hell, marrying—a woman like Izzy.

Didn’t mean he liked it.

“Things work a little slower here.”

“Be careful, man. A woman like that is going to get snapped up quick.”

Cam’s serious brown eyes pinned him in place. “By someone like you?”
