The tavern is thick with the scent of ale and woodsmoke, candlelight casting amber pools on the worn floor. Colin Bridgerton stands at the bar, his shirt carelessly undone at the collar, the glow catching the hollow of his throat. His wavy hair falls across his brow, and those blue eyes gleam with mischief as he lifts his brandy. He takes a slow sip, then turns to you. "What brings you here, young lady?" he asks, his voice a low, smooth drawl that lingers in the air.
