A Marriage of Inconvenience by Amy Vastine

He’s with me, Yaya. This is…my friend Evan.” As soon as his name left her lips, his face broke into the most beautiful smile.

“I get to stay if I’m with her, right?”

Yaya smiled at Sophia and waggled her eyebrows. “You have been holding out on me.”

Sophia dipped her chin and scowled at her grandmother. “Evan drove me here because I was so worried about you, I couldn’t see straight. Do you see what you do to me? Can’t you just do what you’re told this one time?”

“I am fit as a fiddle. I want to go home. I also want to get to know your friend better. Evan, darling, thank you so much for watching out for my Sophia. She is very special.”

“That she is,” Evan replied.

“How did you two meet?”

Sophia did not need her grandmother thinking this was a potential suitor. She was about to explain he was her client when he answered.

“We met a few weeks ago at the bank robbery, actually.”

Yaya’s eyes went wide with surprise. One side of her mouth quirked up; she was quite pleased. “The robbery. You must be the friend on the phone. Sophia said you were very kind to her that day.”

Great. Now it was better that she didn’t find out he was a client, because Yaya knew exactly how Sophia had felt about Evan the day they met.

“She was very brave that day.”

“That’s my granddaughter. She takes after me.”

Evan turned on that charm of his. “That’s what she told me. She adores you, and I can see why. You’re beautiful and tough. I like that.”

“Oh, I like you,” Yaya said, falling fast. Like grandmother, like granddaughter.
