Excerpt

“Who’s that?” Britt asked as Cyndi walked into the large, bright lunchroom where most of the employees of Allied Insurance ate their meals.

Cyndi punched at her cell phone, clumsily shoving it into her purse. “I just left a voice message for Mike Briggs in underwriting,” Cyndi replied. “I did a report for him but he’d already left when I went to his office. I wanted him to know it was on his desk.”

“Oh, the Hunk?” Britt’s smile revealed her thoughts. “He’d be quite a catch.”

Cyndi shook her head. “The only thing he sees is the work I crank out.”

“You don’t give yourself enough credit,” Britt said. “You’re bright and intelligent. Look how fast you moved out of customer service.”

“Thank you.” Cyndi smiled. “I’m looking for that special someone, but I’d like to find him at church.” Cyndi looked out the window. As she jabbed at her salad, she noticed the landscape: bare trees, blossomless plants and gray fog mirrored her inner self. She had no one to share her life and she was ready to bloom. She reached up and touched the butterfly pin she wore as a symbol of hope and new beginnings. Since she’d arrived in White’s Cove two years ago she hadn’t met the man of her dreams.

When five o’clock rolled around Cyndi picked up purse and briefcase and hurried out to her car. Choir practice started in less than an hour and she didn’t want to be late. As she eased her bright red convertible into a stall, she spotted Mike getting out of the car two rows over. Cyndi flicked down the visor mirror, checked her make-up and watched Mike walk to the back of the church.
