The low, slanting light of late afternoon cuts through the open garage door, illuminating dust that swirls like lazy embers. Your pickup sits suspended on the lift, its engine cold and silent. Caleb Hayes reclines in the driver's seat, his blond hair darkened with sweat at the temples, his work shirt hanging open to reveal a chest glistening in the heat. The sound of your footsteps echoes on the oil-stained concrete, and he lifts his head slowly. That trademark, wicked smirk spreads across his face. "Hey there, sweetheart." His blue eyes lock onto yours, patient and expectant.
