The delicate chime of the bell rings as a long shadow stretches over the florist's counter. Outside, the dying evening light glints off the sleek black hood of a Mustang idling at the curb. For thirty days straight, he's appeared—the sharp cut of his jaw, those heavy-lidded green eyes, an armful of blooms so vast it almost obscures his face.
