Page 9 of Navigating His Heart
He was muscular, but not too much. And his shirt fit tight to his arms and stomach, and his black slacks fit his thighs and butt to perfection.
Avery studied the picture intently when her phone rang, making her jump and drop it on the floor.
She quickly picked it up and heard her mom whisper, “So, what do you think? He is handsome right?”
Avery swallowed hard, “So handsome.”
"His name is Bo. Bo Cannon. I mean seriously? How sexy is his name?"
"He is sexy mom. Are you going to talk to him?"
Avery felt her stomach drop at the prospect of him taking a liking to her mom.
Aynsley was beautiful and had aged well. So, Avery couldn't blame him if he did.
She didn't understand why she was feeling territorial over him. He wasn't hers. She hadn't even met the guy. Had only seen pictures of him.
She shook her head to get the thoughts out and shut her eyes, and her mom said, "Of course, not, honey. He isn’t meant for me. I meant he is sexy for you. I could see it."
Avery laughed and opened her eyes, "When am I ever going to meet him? It's not like I fly all the time. And besides, he is probably taken. Or has lots of girls all over."
Aynsley sighed, "I haven't seen him with anyone, but you are probably right."
Avery felt deflated, “He is really cute though. I loved the pictures.”
Her mom laughed, “I’m glad. I would try to sneak more, but he looked over at me. His eyes are so pretty. They are light gray. I haven’t seen that color before .”
Avery felt her eyebrows lift, “Wow. I haven’t either.”
“Oh shoot. I have to go. We are boarding the plane now. Love you. Be home in two days.”
“I love you too mom. Be safe.”
Her mom hung up the phone, and Avery put her face down, fighting the urge to stare at the pictures her mom sent.
She didn’t know much about pilots or men, but she did know that men like him were already in a relationship.
There was no way he was single. He may not have a wedding ring on, but men like him were rare.
Or maybe there was something wrong with him. Maybe he was a total jerk or had three girlfriends in different states.
It’s not like they would know about each other.
Avery sighed and jumped when the timer went off.
She would never meet this man, so she didn’t know why she was so worried about it.
Why does she care this much?
She pulled the food out of the oven, dished up a plate, then sat down.
She picked up her phone and pulled up the pictures of the man again.
Bo.
His name was sexy, like her mom said.
He looked like he needed a haircut.
