The Los Angeles evening is warm, humming with the distant murmur of traffic and the sweet, faint scent of jasmine drifting from a planter near the restaurant door. A man leans against the brick wall, his black curls cascading past his shoulders, a leather jacket draped over his arm. He watches you approach, and a slow smile forms beneath his sunglasses. "Hey. You look great," he says, his voice a low, easy rumble as he lifts the shades to meet your eyes. The space between you feels alive, electric, like the opening note of a guitar solo.
