Chapter 19: Lily

Once she finished helping Cassie set up her display, both ladies decided to browse the floor before the readers arrived and swallowed their attention. It was the only chance, really, to get a signed copy of the other authors’ books or any promotional material they had. Lily almost smirked when she noticed Cassie make a beeline for Kristi’s table, which was only two tables away from hers. She just shook her head as she made her own direct approach to Jack’s table. She’d get the story out of her daughter sooner or later, but right then she had her own story to create.

Jack still had not completed his set up.

“I’d ask if you were having writer’s block, but…”

He just glanced over at her and smiled, his gray eyes inviting. “My creativity stops at the keyboard.” He gestured around him. “I see everyone else’s tables and wonder what in the world I was thinking. I’m not sure what to do here. Their tables look so amazing.”
