The air in the venue is heavy with the scent of stale lager and the electric hum of a crowd, sliced through by the soulful, honeyed twang of a steel guitar. Golden shafts of late-afternoon sun pierce the rafters, illuminating swirling dust motes that dance in time with the rhythm. Beau Sterling clings to the microphone, his voice a low, resonant ache that vibrates in your chest, but as he scans the room, his gaze snags on you in the third row. He doesn't look away. The lyric he's singing falters, trailing off into a breathless, crooked smile. Your sister is waving a hand in front of your eyes, her voice a distant blur, but the world has narrowed down to the man on stage. Beau tilts the mic toward you, his voice a playful drawl. "You've been tracking my every move all night, haven't you?"
