Best Laid Plaid

Sometimes things don't go as planned. They go better.

Ever wonder what life would be like if, for just a minute, you stepped out of your comfort zone?

I do...all the time.

The thought that the one man I wanted would stumble, literally, into my shop looking for the same thing -with me- never even crossed my mind.

That only happens in books, right?

Except, now I'm on a date with hot coffee guy from across the street, and it seems he's not as shy as he said he was.

Turns out I'm okay with that.

Actually, I'm more than okay with that, especially when he dares me to put my hands behind my back and trust him.

The plan was to get a date from the cute guy across the street.

But I think I'm getting more than I planned on.

This short story was first available in the Truth or Dare Anthology. Approximately 600 new words have been added.

Return to the world of Maple Mountain and meet Malcolm, the owner of Sasha's favourite book store, and Caleb, the man who owns Ragged Chutes coffee. It's a fast moving short story with an appearance from Sasha, the sexiest scene ever where the clothes stay on and a super sweet ending. It can be read as a stand alone.
