Grace gave a shy smile as she scratched her cheek. That was when she realized the car was already heading toward her apartment complex.

When it stopped, she stepped out and bent slightly to knock on the window politely. "Well, I'm heading in. Thanks for the ride."

"Okay."

She turned and walked into the building but couldn't resist glancing back. Ethan's car was still parked there.

Grace's heart sank. That had to be Sloan.

"Thanks," she said quickly.
