gleam in Tess’ eyes they both grinned together. There weren’t many muscles on Adam’s lean body. If anything, he looked more like a string bean than a heartthrob.
    Adam opened the bag. “Chocolate chip with lemon frosting? You must want something pretty bad.”
    “I want Annie to come with me for fifteen minutes. One of our brides is getting fitted for her dress and she looks amazing.”
    Annie shut down her computer and put the last few things on her desk away. “I’d love to come. Are you sure you don’t want me to mail the invoices, Adam?”
    “Of course I’m sure. A glamorous bride trumps my invoices any day.”
    “Why do I feel like you were already getting ready to leave?” Tess asked.
    Adam held the muffins behind his back. “Probably because I told Annie to go home early. You can’t take the muffins with you.”
    Tess laughed. “I’d have to wrestle you to get them back, and you’re too quick for me.”
    Annie picked up her bag and stood up. “Let’s go. Thanks, Adam.”
    “Any time. I like your vanilla cream muffins too, Tess.”
    “I know. I’ll make some tomorrow.”
    Adam smiled and locked the door behind them. They walked quickly along the sidewalk, dodging a group of teenagers and a lady using a walker.
    “It’s been a busy afternoon,” Tess said as they crossed the street. “After you left the café, Molly came in and showed me The Bridesmaids Club website. She’s uploaded the photos of Connie’s wedding and they look lovely. And then Becky came looking for her. They had a flower emergency at an event with the mayor. The only person I haven’t seen this afternoon is Sally.”
    “She’s gone to the museum with her class. Which bride is trying on a dress?”
    “Julie. Emily offered to do the first fitting in her boutique. Julie’s mom is going to do the sewing, but she was worried about unpicking the bodice.” Tess smiled at someone she knew, then held the door to Emily’s boutique open.
    Annie walked through the big wooden doorframe. She loved visiting Emily. Her boutique was filled with beautiful clothes and accessories. She even had a selection of fashion magazines, books and jewelry that her customers could buy.
    She walked toward the huge staircase in the middle of the room. “Which dress did Julie decide to wear?”
    “You’ll have to wait and see.”
    Annie could hear lots of laughing and talking coming from upstairs. As she got closer to the second floor, the laughing disappeared.
    “You look beautiful.” A woman in her mid-fifties was sitting on one of Emily’s chairs, staring at the young woman in front of her.
    “Don’t cry, mom.”
    “I can’t help it, Julie. Your dad would have been so proud to see the woman you’ve become.”
    Julie lifted the skirt of her satin dress and walked across to her mom. “You’re going to make me cry, too.”
    Emily rushed across with a box of tissues. “For emergencies. Whatever you do, don’t cry on the satin.”
    Both women started laughing.
    Annie looked at Tess. “You’re right. The dress looks incredible.” Julie was wearing one of the first bridal dresses that had arrived. Instead of being white, the fabric was a soft shell pink satin. With a ruched bodice and spaghetti straps, Annie could see why Julie’s mom didn’t want to alter the dress without some expert advice.
    As Julie moved back to where she’d been standing, Emily beckoned Julie’s mom across the room. They spoke quietly, turning Julie to the left, then to the right, as they discussed what needed to be done to make the dress fit snuggly.
    “What about a veil?” Annie whispered.
    “She doesn’t want one,” Tess whispered back. “I think she’s going to weave some flowers through her hair.”
    Julie would look absolutely stunning on her wedding day. Her long blonde hair and peaches and cream complexion already suited the dress to perfection. With a bouquet in her hands and flowers in her hair, she would look amazing.
    Emily waved at them.
