Chapter 19 As well as a Christmas party, BB&H also had a New Year’s Eve party. It wasn’t supposed to be quite as rowdy as the Christmas party, even though everyone had the next day off, but Parrish had no intention of being the victim of a spiked punchbowl again. Maybe if Ransom was attending…But because he wasn’t, neither would Parrish. He left work, and since he wasn’t in the mood to do any cooking—or even nuking a frozen dinner—he stopped at his favorite pizzeria on his way home to Ransom’s condo. The woman behind the counter looked up when he walked in and grinned. “Large Supreme, double cheese, double sauce, sub pepperoni for the sausage, add artichoke hearts. And a Coke while you’re waiting?” She didn’t have to tell him it would take about fifteen minutes. He grinned back at her.
