“Number twenty,” Courtney called out.

“That’s me.” Liam walked to the counter.

“Hi, Liam.”

“Courtney. How are you?”

“Great. What can I get you?”

He gave her his order and stepped back so the next person could place their order.

“Hi, Shay. I’ll be right with you,” Courtney said to the woman.

“Hi, Courtney. That’s fine. I’m in no hurry.”

Courtney smiled and then looked at him.

“Liam? Here’s your order.”

He paid her and picked up the bag.

“Where’s JoJo?”

“She took today off.”

“Oh. Okay.”

“She’ll probably be at the festival.”

Liam nodded. “I’ll get with her later. Have a great day, Courtney, and tell Nevada I said hello.” He turned, touched the brim of his hat at the woman, and walked outside.

He glanced up and down the street. Now what was he supposed to do?

Blowing a frustrated breath, he headed for his truck and drove home. He’d go fishing at the pond. That was a good way to waste time. He needed to do something before he went to Dewey’s later.

“You told yourself it was best to stay away,” he muttered.

Shaking his head, he knew he couldn’t. He wanted to see Siobhan again.

Chapter Four

Siobhan’s feet were killing her. The bar was so busy that she barely had time to breathe. She didn’t think she had ever worked this hard.

Even at the bar in Denver. She couldn’t help but smile, though, because she loved it. After setting a beer on the bar, she moved to the next customer.

“What can I get you?”

“Beer. On tap is fine, sweetheart.” The cowboy grinned at her.

“Coming right up.” She got a frosted mug from the freezer, put it under the tap, poured beer into it, and then placed it in front of him.

“Hey, darlin’, could I get a beer?”

She froze at his voice and closed her eyes. Even after the way she left him at the diner today, she was hoping he’d come to the bar. Taking a deep breath, she opened her eyes, and faced him.

“Bottle or tap?”

“Tap is fine, Irish,” Liam said.
