    Summary

    “Jonathan,” says Evy, walking straight into his living room without so much as a hello and standing directly in front of him. Her voice is saccharine, so sugary that it puts Jonathan’s teeth on edge. “Did you happen to become a bestselling author while Rick and I were in Luxor over summer?”

    Jonathan clears his throat, sinks a little lower in his armchair, and lifts yesterday’s edition of The Egyptian Gazette higher, obscuring the blush he knows he can’t control.

    “I have no idea how I’m supposed to answer that, dear sister,” he replies, “seeing as I have absolutely no idea what the current bestselling novels are.”

    When Jonathan writes an adventure—definitely not a romance, thank you—novel based on the whole Imhotep debacle, he doesn't expect it to become the bestselling pulp sensation of the decade. With hindsight, perhaps he should have made some of the real life parallels less obvious, especially when it comes to the dashing romantic lead, Abir Rey.

    Thankfully, there are no bookshops in the desert, so the chances of Ardeth reading it are blessedly slim.

    Probably.

    Summary

    Bly points out that it’s a good thing that Boba has found a connection with someone who is so orderly and collected. Opposites attract, he says.
    “Mando only remembers he exists twice a day,” Fives deadpans.
    “When he speaks,” Cody corrects.
    “Guys, you don’t know that,” Bly says. “He could be just as smitten. Rex, you dated a Mandalorian once. Tell them.”
    All eyes land on Rex. He begins to sink into his chair.

    (Rex dated the Armorer back in the day and finds her again when he meets the guy who Boba is trying to court.)
