Tessa thought about it. It seemed like everything had pretty much been handled. Beauty Luxe was running smoothly with Harper in charge–there was nothing for her to worry about there.
The only thing left unresolved was Avery Band’s contract situation.

“In that case, come with me to Thorne Corp. You’re heading to Falindale in a few days, right? We won’t be able to see each other for a while.”
“You’re so busy at Thorne Corp–do you really need me there?”
Landon nodded seriously. “Yes. I get so much more done when you’re around.
