suppliers to set up a separate Twitter handle to communicate with her, as she did with her clients and her staff. Some had grumbled but then discovered they liked the efficiency of it. Those who really fussed about it, she texted, but they were getting fewer and fewer.
    Both Shelby and Noelle had tweeted her with questions. The woman she’d run into at Havva Cup during her coffee with Janice asked to schedule a meeting. Three of her other clients had questions as did some of her suppliers. Everyone always wanted something at the same time. She gave a mental shrug, reminding herself that was the nature of her business, a business, by the way, she loved. She fixed herself a cup of coffee from her wonderful single serving machine and sat down with the hot brew to tweet back to everyone. Finally, she checked her calendar again and headed off for her appointment with a new linen supplier.
    Hopefully, by the time she saw Tanner today, all those irritating feelings as well as her headache would have disappeared.

    Tanner parked in front of Sweet Treats, noted that he was a few minutes early and decided to wait outside for Avery. He’d thought of little except her since their dinner meeting. He considered himself a very disciplined person, especially where his work was concerned. But the last couple of days had really tested his self-control. With any other woman, he would have figured out quickly how to seduce her into bed, exhausted himself with sex, and been over it.
    With Avery, it was different. For one thing, he’d learned through what he hoped were subtle questions to Janice that Avery did not do casual sex. For another, Janice had managed to make it plain that when Avery hooked up with someone it wasn’t a sexually hungry playboy like Tanner. Okay, so his reputation preceded him. But this was his opportunity to show her he was serious, if he could just get her to give him a chance.
    While he was examining possibilities in his mind, her silver SUV pulled into the curb two spaces up from him. She climbed gracefully out of the vehicle, grabbed her ever-present messenger bag, and headed toward him. Today, she wore a navy sleeveless dress, which exposed her toned arms and had a skirt that swished around her knees in a way that made his cock instantly hard.
    Damn! It seemed everything about Avery Kurtz made his cock swell and demand attention. He shifted slightly and hoped by the time she walked up to him he’d be at least semi-presentable.
    “All set to select the candies?” She grinned, as if waiting for him to throw up his hands and run. But he also saw a momentary surge of heat in her eyes, suppressed as quickly as it came. Oh, yes, she felt the same thing he did. Getting her to admit it would be another challenge.
    “Sure am. Let’s do it.” He still had no idea what the big deal was about candy for a wedding, but he had made a promise and he was game for anything.
    A bell tinkled as soon as they opened the door to Sweet Treats, and the aroma of chocolate assailed him, making his mouth water. A row of display cases featuring a large assortment of candies of every size and shape was the first thing that greeted him. Chocolate had always been one of his weaknesses, a fact that had driven him to a full out exercise program when he was younger or he’d look like a blimp. His taste buds were already hollering for attention.
    “Hi, Avery.” A smiling woman Tanner guessed to be in her forties came out of the back and greeted Avery.
    “Hey, Donna. You got my tweet about Janice’s wedding, right?”
    “Uh huh. Many. Three weeks? Is she crazy?”
    Avery laughed. “I think she’s doing it just to test me. Donna, this is Tanner Voss. He’s doing all the tasting and choosing with me.”
    Donna’s eyebrows took a hike almost to her hairline. “Ohhhhh?” She drew the word out. “Do tell. Is he a special, um, taster?
    “Cut it out.” Avery laughed again. “Janice and Will tell me he’ll do just fine. This is his
