––––––––

The convention center was packed. It was a photographer’s wet dream with more gadgets and gizmos than the eye could take in. Whether you wanted to take a picture of Saturn’s rings, an individual snowflake, or anything in between, you could find what you needed at the expo. Vendors lined rows upon rows of booths and displays, peddling their wares. Workshops on all things photography were offered in the dozens of meeting rooms around the convention center. In short, it was photography heaven.

Kat felt a small thrill of excitement as she walked in and gratefully inhaled a lungful of crisp, filtered air. The midmorning walk in Nashville’s sultry heat had her body sweating and hair frizzing. She tucked the errant curls behind her ears and thought wistfully of her mountains. The Appalachians were not the sexiest of mountains, but their expansive beauty had lured her in almost a decade ago. She had come for a visit and ended up moving there to open an art studio. She catered to the tourists by offering a multitude of ways to capture their mountain memories from painting to pottery to pictures. She had left her assistant minding the shop while she attended the photography expo.

The wall of muscle and gear seemed to come out of nowhere. She saw him a split second before she walked right into his back, pushing him off balance. He grunted and let out a few choice curses as he juggled the load he was carrying.

Oh! Sorry. God, I am so sorry, Kat stammered as her hands shot out to steady him. Her hand slid over a rock solid back and arm as she quickly stepped around him to help balance a large box. Her hands rested on his as they got control of his unwieldy burden. I am so sorry. I wasn’t watching where I was going. Obviously. Are you alright? Can I do anything to help, she babbled, processing the heat of his skin under her touch. Over the top of the box, a pair of dark eyes regarded her with irritation. To her relief, they softened quickly.

Colin looked down at the woman who had just about cost him a fortune. The gear in the box wasn’t packed well. Dropping it would have been disastrous even
