had rear–ended her.

Frustration flared in her chest. She had no time for this.

She climbed out of the vehicle, inspecting the damage. It wasn’t severe, but dealing with it would be time–consuming.

“Car trouble?”

A familiar voice drifted from the sidewalk.

Sarah turned her head–and there he was.

Sarah remained cold and distant, but Cole’s unexpected gentleness caught her off guard.

He explained that dealing with the car issue would take a considerable amount of time and offered to drop her off at the show first.

His calm and accommodating attitude was unlike the Cole she had known before.

particularly kind.

In the past, he had given her a hard time at the races, showing no concern for her whatsoever.
