    “Can I help you?”

    “Sure, you can let go of Jules. My date.”

    “Jules?! Her name is Julia,” Chet snapped.

    “It’s too small. I need to find Laura and tell her it’s not going to work.” Ducking her head, she tried to run away. “It looks terrible.”

    I rushed after her and caught her elbow. My fingers wrapping around the soft fabric protecting her smooth skin from my touch, an electric spark licking its way up my arm.
