Cesarino plans fell through. It wasn't that the restaurant could not make accommodations for Charles Bingley and his friends, but there was the matter of insurance hassles and the towing of Will Darcy's vehicle. Also, Lizzy had been on the phone with her lawyer for twenty minutes ("Pam Gardiner thinks it was probably 50 -50," she muttered to Jane). They ended up at a Red Robin three hours later, crammed into a booth.

Will Darcy was not making any attempts to conceal his staring across the table.

Lizzy raised her green eyes at him challengingly. "Take a Polaroid."


Author's Note: Hi, friends! Excited to share that the rest of Sparks is available for pre-order on Amazon, and will be released on Tuesday, July 25,2017 - in much prettier, polished capacity featuring lovely cover art by DaveJorel. Just search for "Sparks Fly, Tires Skid" by Ari Rhoge. "Personally, I'd Rather Lick Sand" will be up later this summer as well.

If you have any questions or want to chat, feel free to PM me or reach out on Tumblr - miss you all dearly.

Thanks!
Ari
