Excerpt:
“Do you want ice cream?” She hit him with one surprise after another, and he replied, “It’s freezing out here. How about a coffee?” “I don’t like coffee.” “Wow, a New Yorker who doesn’t like coffee.” Taking her by the arm, he stopped her. “Are you going to tell me anything about yourself?” “I just told you I don’t like coffee. That’s something.” He sighed. “I’m serious, Jude.” His emotional sigh was wearing on her and she gave him the most honest answer she could. “Not if I can get away with it.” He looked into her blue eyes. Under a bright fluorescent light of a convenience store, he could see they were tinged in green with champagne centers. They were the most unique eyes he had ever seen. She was the most unique woman he had ever met. Now he felt bad for making her unhappy, so he broke his gaze away. “Fine. I’ll limit my questions.” And just to see her smile again, he said, “Ice cream it is.” She jumped for joy. “I know a great place a few blocks from here.” “Should we catch a cab?” “No, I love the snow. It’s magical.” Looking down the street and then back to her, he started wondering when he’d stopped seeing magic in the world. He could probably guess, but he didn’t want to think about that time. A half hour later, his hands were frozen but he still found himself eating pistachio ice cream with Jude for dinner. He bought the treats and joined her at a booth where she was contentedly licking her rocky road. As soon as he sat down, she asked, “I think you can tell everything you need to know about a person by their favorite ice cream flavor.”
