“It is,” he agreed, carefully avoiding the ornaments as she stepped around the desk. “We can plan the shower tonight over dinner.”

She groaned.

“What?” he asked. “You don’t want to do the shower? Or is dinner a bad thing?”

“Dinner is a very bad thing.” She sighed again. “I love your cooking.”

“I’m glad. So what’s the problem?” He lifted the blue scarf from its bag and placed it around her neck.

“Olive oil is good for you.” He smiled down into her blue eyes. “And you don’t have to worry about calories.”

“You only think that because I do worry about calories,” she pointed out. “Don’t look at me like that.”

“Like what?” She had the most gorgeous skin. The occasional dot of red glitter made her look like a Christmas ornament.

“Never mind.” The pink in her cheeks deepened.

“Like I want to kiss you?”
