Even for you.” She might have blanched a little at that. Cold. She wasn’t cold. She just wasn’t…overly friendly. At least not in the way some of the men in the place--and not only the single ones--hoped she’d be. “Come on now,” she said. “I’m not breaking anything here. You get what you see with me. No subterfuge, no leading anyone to believe anything that isn’t true. You all know that.” She didn’t bother looking at Hardy, though it couldn’t hurt to get him the message again, too. She did look at Cooper again, though, as she added, “Anyone who knows me, knows that.” His laser-beam gaze didn’t falter for even a blink. She drew in a steadying breath and pasted a big smile on her face. “So then,” she said, clapping her hands together and keeping her fingers woven tightly in front of her, her damp palms belying her I’m-so-in-control-here attitude. “The entertainment portion of the evening is over. Nothing to see here. Let’s shoot some pool, throw some darts, and a round for everyone, on the house.” That got the rousing cheer she knew it would and she quickly hopped down behind the bar and immediately began setting up glasses. She knew her grand--and not inexpensive--gesture would quiet them for a bit, but she also knew life in the Cove was going to be rife with all sorts of gossip for the next day or two, until something else came along to replace it on their juicy little grapevine. She had no idea where Fergus had suddenly gotten to and was surprised he hadn’t tried to orchestrate something, anything, between Kerry and Cooper. Hopefully with her little demonstration just now, he’d never have the chance.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Donna Kauffman" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/donna-kauffman/i-appreciate-that-you-re-all-entertained-by-this-little-surprise-she/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/118/donna-kauffman-2275_hands-together_i-appreciate-that-you-re-all-entertained_288738.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/118/donna-kauffman-2275_hands-together_i-appreciate-that-you-re-all-entertained_288738.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/118/donna-kauffman-2275_hands-together_i-appreciate-that-you-re-all-entertained_288738.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“I appreciate that you’re all entertained by this…little surprise.” She swallowed hard and looked at Cooper…” — Donna Kauffman", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“Hulking piece of rust,” she grumbled, then gave it a little pat on the wheel well as she scooted out between her truck and Hannah’s car. “Can’t let the car gods hear you dis their minions,” she said when she caught Cooper’s amused look. “They’ll strand you in the desert as sure as look at you. Besides, she might be a hulking piece of rusted metal but she’s my hulking piece.” She stopped when she reached her sister and gave her a one-armed hug. “And to what do I owe this pleasure? Cross-examining my afternoon date, are we?” “Maybe,” Hannah said, hugging her back. “Oh, good.” Kerry grinned, rubbing her hands together. “What did you learn?” “Hey, now,” Cooper said, chuckling. “What makes you think I’d give anything up?” “Oh, she’s good,” Kerry told him. “She once talked a tribal chief in Papua New Guinea, out of marrying me to his youngest son.” Cooper looked at Hannah, who just raised an arched brow but didn’t refute the statement. “Well, then, I suppose I’m even more in your debt,” he told Kerry’s oldest sister. “Unless of course the tribe believes in polygamy.” Kerry looked affronted. “You’d share me? Well, well, good to know.” She folded her arms. “So glad we’re having this little chat.” “Oh, no, Starfish, no such luck. You’d be stuck making do with only me. You see, I know a guy who could fly us out of there on his helicopter, and I’m guessing your erstwhile tribal spouse wouldn’t go anywhere near one of those flying birds. I’d spirit you off and--” “And leave my poor first husband brokenhearted and alone? Do I get a say in this?” She looked to her sister. “You’re drawing up my pre-nup, right?” Cooper brightened and clapped his hands together, which earned him an arched brow from Kerry. “Well, while I’m not too thrilled about your attachment to Number One, speaking as Number Two, I will say I’m happy to hear we’re in the negotiation phase.” “Husband Number One is a lot younger,” she said consideringly. “And while he doesn’t have as many head of cattle as you do, he does come with an entire village, and if something happens to his other six brothers, he’ll be chief one day.” She smiled sweetly. “Just saying.” Cooper flashed her a smile that might have been a little too private with her sister standing right there, but what the hell. “Keep in mind, Number Twos traditionally try harder. So I have that going for me.” Hannah looked from Cooper to Kerry, then at both of them, before finally looking at Kerry. “Seriously, marry him before he wises up.” “Hey,” Kerry replied, mock wounded. “And why do you say that?” “You speak the same language.” “Says the woman who communicates with her husband using old movie quotes that nobody gets but the two of you.” Hannah smiled, really smiled, and it transformed her often more serious expression into something truly radiant. “Yes, that’s exactly who’s saying that.” She looked at Cooper. “I have a feeling you and Calder will become fast friends.” “Thank you,” Cooper said, “for both sentiments.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Donna Kauffman" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/donna-kauffman/hulking-piece-of-rust-she-grumbled-then-gave-it-a-little-pat-on-the/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/ae2/donna-kauffman-2275_gaze_hulking-piece-of-rust-she-grumbled-then_2386940.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/ae2/donna-kauffman-2275_gaze_hulking-piece-of-rust-she-grumbled-then_2386940.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/ae2/donna-kauffman-2275_gaze_hulking-piece-of-rust-she-grumbled-then_2386940.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Hulking piece of rust,” she grumbled, then gave it a little pat on the wheel well as she scooted out between…” — Donna Kauffman", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/hands-together/donna-kauffman/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/hands-together/donna-kauffman/", "name": "Hands together Quotes by Donna Kauffman", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/hands-together/donna-kauffman/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/118/donna-kauffman-2275_hands-together_i-appreciate-that-you-re-all-entertained_288738.jpg" }, "description": "2 Hands together quotes by Donna Kauffman.
