Page 18 of Perfect Enough

She smiled. “That’s why you avoided me about the date with Janet’s son!”

Smiling weakly, I nodded. “Yep.”

“How did you meet?” she asked.

I frantically tried to come up with a story, then decided to stick as close to the truth as possible when nothing came to me quickly enough.

“I texted the wrong number, and he texted back. We sort of started texting back and forth.”

“If that isn’t the cutest thing I’ve ever heard!” Chloe said as she walked into my office.

Oh. Shit.

My mother, I could lie to. Kind of. But Chloe? She would see right through me.

“Itisadorable. When can we meet him?” Mom asked.

“Yes!” Chloe said, sitting in the other chair. “What does he look like?”

I blinked at them, completely blank. I had only imagined what Josh looked like.

Turning to my computer, I did the only thing I could think of. “Oh! Sorry, hold on. I need to answer an email, Mom.”

They both looked at me like I had lost my mind.

Pulling up Google, I typed in Josh Shaw in an act of desperation. Not expecting to actually find anything. I glanced at Chloe and my mother with a quick smile before turning back to the computer and seeing…

Josh Shaw.

“Holy shit,” I said—as I stared at the insanely handsome guy dressed in a Hamilton firefighter uniform.

“What?” Chloe and my mother both said at the same time.

Looking at them, I asked, “Do you guys mind giving me just five minutes? Then I’ll tell you whatever you want to know about Josh.”

They both stood, looking annoyed and excited at the same time. Chloe started to head out, but my mother stopped and said over her shoulder, “Five minutes.”

Motioning for them to leave, I called out, “Shut the door!”

Clicking on the photo, it blew it up and I stared. Josh Shaw had brown hair, blue eyes, and a sexy five o’clock shadow. My entire body shivered.

Leaning closer, I studied the picture of Josh with another firefighter, an older man. He was handing the other man something as they both looked at the camera.

“I’ve never seen that eye color before. They look blue, butnotblue. Bluish-gray?”

I backed out and looked at the Google results, then clicked Images at the top of the page.

“Holy cowboy!”

There were pictures of a younger Josh on a bull. Standing next to what I was guessing was his father since they looked so much alike, and a huge bull. There was also a photo of him in his high school baseball uniform.

Lord, he must have been born from the womb hot as hell.

I clicked out of the images and went back to the Google results yet again. I found a recent article and opened it. It was about the Shaw Cattle Ranch in Hamilton, Montana. I covered my mouth with my hand and I whispered, “Sophia, what have you gotten yourself into?”

Dropping back into my seat, I stared at the photo of the entrance of the Shaw Ranch. The Shaw family was known all around the area for being one of the wealthiest cattle ranches in the state of Montana. How in the hell had that not clicked? They were big with doing things in the community, and one of the sons even opened a community center in Hamilton several years ago.

My hands came up to my mouth as I attempted not to laugh. Of all the guys I was talking to, he had to be this guy.
