Summary
Nile Freeman is at loose ends after a near-death experience that ended her naval career. When a friend of the family tells her about a position as lady's companion for the reclusive widow Lady Andromache at her country estate, Scythian Woods, Nile accepts the position with reluctance. It isn't an auspicious job--the manor is falling apart, her employer doesn't seem to want anything to do with her, and strange noises and occurrences are starting to make her believe the house is haunted. With a little persistence and the help of Lady Andromache's household staff, however, Nile discovers the secrets of Scythian Woods...and herself.

Summary
Too late, Booker realizes he‘s shown his hand. It’s not purposeful, he just can’t help the way his eyes go entirely too soft, watching Joe chat with the waitress who had just dropped every single one of their drinks. He’s telling her about his ill-fated job at a bar in their second year of university, making her laugh through her tears and helping her mop up the mess of spilled beer.
Booker’s just about to get up and help them, he is, but he’s taking a single moment to wallow in how kind Joe’s smile is. He also apparently remembers Joe’s time as a bartender very, very differently, than Joe. Joe is currently describing himself as a naïve, hapless twenty-year-old who could never remember drink orders and broke more than a few glasses trying to be smooth. Booker does not recall it like that at all. He forces himself up at last, grabs a stack of napkins off the empty table next to them and goes to help, but he’s a split second too late.
Nicky’s coming back from the restroom with a pile of paper towels in his hands, and he’s staring straight at Booker.

Summary
Nicky laughs as Joe noses into his neck. “You’ll give me the wrong idea,” Nicky says. They’ve done this before enough times that Joe knows, theoretically, to steer clear of Nicky’s neck; it’s a hotspot for him and intentionally letting his beard scrape along sensitive skin is a little mean.
“What if it’s not the wrong idea?” Joe says.
Nicky pulls away to study him. “What do you mean?” he asks.
Joe shrugs. “What’s a little fun between friends? I don’t want to be alone tonight, and I don’t want to put myself through meeting someone new. Plus, you’ve been a very good friend, and you deserve to be rewarded for it.”
