booth. Gina was glad to slide into the seat, giving her a small degree of privacy. Millie handed them menus. “I’ll be back with coffee and take your order. Unless you’d like tea or juice,” Millie added.
    “Coffee’s great, and I’d also like a glass of orange juice.”
    “Coming up.” She walked briskly off toward the kitchen.
    “Millie’s amazing, a good cook, and always happy and pleasant. She does a good business.”
    “I like her.” Gina turned her attention to Graham. “You don’t look like you slept well.”
    “You look well rested,” he said, avoiding answering her comment.
    “I slept like a baby. It must be the quiet and feeling like I’m on vacation.’
    His mouth twitched. It was hardly noticeable, but she caught it. This tormenting was going to be fun.
    “Don’t go crazy buying food today. We can always come to Millie’s.”
    “So you’re a regular customer?”
    “Sometimes, or Mom will feed me.” He did that half grin that made her insides clench with desire. “I can live a long time on peanut butter and jelly. I just ran out.”
    Before she responded, Millie was back with her juice and their coffee. After placing the cups and her glass on the table, Millie held her pen ready to write down their order.
    Graham took time for introductions before saying, “I’ll have my usual.”
    Gina hadn’t looked at the menu. She opened it and glanced at the first few items. “I’ll take scrambled eggs, fried potatoes, sausage, and biscuits, with honey,” she added.
    Graham stared at her, and Millie laughed. “I’m going to be surprised if you can eat all that, little lady.” She hurried off to refill several cups of coffee on her way to the kitchen.
    “You must be hungry.”
    “I am. I treat myself on special occasions. Usually I don’t eat as much.”
    “This is a special occasion?” Graham asked.
    “I’m in a new place, meeting new people, and I’m going shopping today. Women, as I’m sure you will attest to, love to shop.” His worried look made her smile.
    “Don’t get carried away,” he cautioned.
    “A woman can never promise that.” Forcing herself to look across the room and away from his handsome face, she turned her head and smiled at the couple sitting closest.
    The man and woman were finished and getting up. They strolled to the booth.
    “Hello, Graham. Haven’t seen you out and about lately,” the tall blond man said.
    “You know me. I keep busy at home.”
    The woman, a short blonde with a wedding ring on her finger, leaned around her husband. “Aren’t you going to introduce us, Graham?”
    “This is Regina. She’s staying with my family for a few weeks. This is her first visit to Montana.”
    The woman put out her hand. “Welcome. I hope we see you around Frontier City. It’s small, but there’s quite a bit to do. Do you knit?”
    “I’ve always wanted to learn.”
    “Then you must come to our knitting group. We’re meeting at my house on Wednesday at one. Ask Mrs. Brodie to bring you. She’s a member.”
    “Thank you, I might do that.”
    They excused themselves and went on out. Graham frowned as soon as they left. “Now you’ve done it. Everyone’s going to stop by and talk on their way out. Plus you agreed to join their knitting group. You won’t be here long enough to learn how to knit.”
    Gina leaned back and smiled brightly. “I couldn’t not talk to them. I can’t be rude. And I’m a fast learner. I want to knit a blanket for your niece and nephew. It’ll give me something to do.”
    Graham looked at her strangely, but she had no idea what he was thinking. Millie arrived with their meals at the right time.
    She hated to admit it, but Graham had been right. Couples, cowboys, and a family all stopped briefly for an introduction. Since she and Graham were eating, they didn’t linger long.
    Gina loved this town. The people were curious, but they were also pleasant and everyone knew everyone, so a stranger would stand out. The
