building, I’m Odessa.”
    Odessa.
    She was gorgeous, sexy, and amazing. She looked perfect for Theo and I felt incredibly guilty for spying on them.
    “Callie,” I said, holding out my hand hoping she couldn’t read my mind. She’d heard noises? Had she heard my beer drop? Did she suspect I’d been eavesdropping on her sex fest?
    And with that I shook Odessa’s hand, her fingers covered with rings. She wore a purple linen coat and high strappy sandals. She was voluptuous and leggy and magnetic. I could see why Theo wanted to be with her. Beautiful people like them belonged together.
    “So is it just you, or do you have a lover as well?” She said the word lover a little lower, her voice husky, a wicked grin crossing her face.
    I coughed, half choking on my answer. “No, nope just me. No lover.”
    “That’s a shame,” she said, pouting. Then she tilted her head and looked at me with narrowing eyes. “You’re on your own. You just broke up with someone.”
    It wasn’t a question.
    “Um . . . I . . .” I stammered.
    “You were with him for years and now you have a broken heart.”
    Again, not a question.
    I felt breathless and exposed as if I’d stumbled outside my apartment with no clothes on. “I did have a boyfriend, a fiancé actually, but there was no ring and we never set a date. It’s over now . . .” I stammered, unsure why I was over sharing with this woman.
    “Oh honey,” she reached out and squeezed my arm. It was so bold and intimate but somehow it felt real. Her smile was genuine and her expression seemed to carry real concern. I inhaled sharply as a splash of tears filled my eyes.
    “I’m sorry,” I said, waving a free hand in front of my eyes. “It’s just kind of fresh I guess. It’s been a really hard few days.”
    “You are going to be all right,” she said turning to face me square on. She took both my arms in hand and squeezed. “Girls like us don’t just end up at The Holiday by accident. We end up here because this is a place to find love again.”
    “Really?” A part of me knew what she was saying sounded like madness, but another part of me surged with hope. This was a magical place wasn’t it? I’d seen the lights outside and felt something in my core that told me I could call this place home.
    “I’m kind of an expert at broken hearts,” she said. “I know just what you need.”
    My heart hammered in my chest.
    “I’m having a party tomorrow night,” Odessa said. “You can meet the other girls. I’ll send you the details.”
    The other girls. Was I really one of them? “Thanks,” I said, standing still.
    “And I’ll get you set up with someone who can help you with that broken heart.”
    “Oh, I don’t think I’m ready to be set up.”
    “Oh honey, I’m not going to get you a marriage proposal, believe me.” Odessa grinned. “Let’s just say I’ve already got someone in mind for you. He is the best medicine in the world.”
    I was literally dumbstruck.
    She walked away and then glanced back over her shoulder. “You heading out?” She held up her purse. I realized how dumb I looked standing outside my door, purse in hand like an idiot.
    “Um, sorry. I forgot something,” I said, trying to laugh it off. “Have a great day.”
    “See you tomorrow,” she sang and disappeared down the stairs.
    I went back inside my apartment and closed the door, leaning against the wood trying to catch my breath. The best medicine in the world. A man. She was talking about setting me up with a man. She certainly had experience sleeping with beautiful men. Theo oozed sex. I wondered what he looked like underneath all those clothes. He probably had a six-pack; he most definitely had a six-pack. A six-pack and an enormous . . . What was wrong with me? A few days in this new building and I was already sex-obsessed. This couldn’t be healthy. Or maybe it was healthy. I felt totally unequipped to tell.
    Even more complicated, talking to Odessa I felt like I had
