Debi shook rain from her hair as she entered Haven Books. She was there partly for work - supposedly Lizzie J. Bodrington had another Urban Werewolf book coming out, and she wanted to see if there were hints that she'd been "studying" RJ Blythe a bit too much the way one of the fan lists suggested - and partly for herself. She'd already read everything she could on babies and pregnancy, and it was time she read something completely different so she wouldn't drive Zach crazy telling him things he already knew.
Calm down, Deborah Anne. You're not even pregnant yet. There's plenty of time, just relax and enjoy yourself.
The only other customer was a smallish young man who looked a bit underfed, and a bit unhappy. Debi started over to the Urban Fantasy section, then decided that a cup of tea was what she needed against the chill.
"Hi!" she said to the girl at the counter. "A pot of Earl Grey, please. It's a lot colder than it looks out there!"
