Killer Breakfast Specials (A Sage and Dash Cozy Mystery Book 2) (5 page)

When Ryan Nolan walked through the door at The Breakfast Nook, everything fell silent. Even Myrtle, known for always having her mouth in motion said nothing. All eyes turned toward the stranger.

Ryan got that a lot. He tried not to let it go to his head. Maybe it was his pearly, white smile. Maybe it was his ample, bulging muscles, or maybe not…but probably.

Gloria picked up her jaw off the floor.

Viola swiveled to get a better look, and Patsy simple sighed.

Libby introduced herself, while Owen shook his head seeing the reactions of the women. He used to get reactions like that a long time ago. Okay, maybe not for a good twenty years, but still.

“Hey, I’m Ryan Nolan, the new post master,” he started.

Libby laughed. “For some reason, I think there’s going to be a long line at the post office this week.”

“I hear you make a good breakfast,” he said, settling down at the counter.

Rosie didn’t hear him. She barely noticed he walked in the door. She only had eyes for Dr. Jeff Tucker who was simply holding her hand across the counter.

“So dinner tonight?”

“I’d like that,” she answered.

And just like that, things got back to normal in the little town of Spring Valley, Pennsylvania. Or did they?
