Jenny said, pointing to the community center’s parking lot. Ving narrowed his eyes and shot her a confused look when he saw she was taking him to the pool. “You want to go swimming?” “I think Sam was right. We could use a good dousing in cold water.” He laughed, and without a hint of embarrassment, adjusted his khaki shorts. “I guess you noticed how much I like you.” She looked at him, and her entire body warmed. “I like you too, Ving.” He slammed his truck into Park and turned to her. Shifting closer, he touched her hair, the backs of his fingers brushing along her cheek. His dark gaze moved over her face as he wound a loose strand around his finger. His voice dropped an octave when he said, “I’m glad to hear that.” “It’s strange. I just met you, but I feel like I’ve known you forever.” She looked out the windshield at the empty parking lot, hardly able to believe how fast she was falling for the guy.
