Quelling the unladylike impulse to catch a snowflake on my tongue, I continued walking to the car. Looking up, I noticed Ronan watching me, and warmth rushed to my cheeks at his heavy attention. I caught a flake in my palm, studying how it melted on my skin within seconds. It was like someone above had torn their wedding dress apart and let the pieces of tulle float to the pavement. I stopped on the sidewalk and lifted my eyes to the sky to watch snow fall for the first time. On the way back to the car, a flurry landed on my lashes. His eyes narrowed-apparently, he was on to me-but he didn’t voice his disapproval. I ran my hand down a white faux fur coat that had to be the cheapest of the lot and said, “This one.” His gaze set me on edge, so I distracted myself by perusing the clothing racks. He regarded me heavily, as if I was an odd breed of woman.
