He stared over at a house that had a ton of cars in the driveway and out front. My heart started beating faster.

Oh. No. Please God no.

Nic put the truck in reverse and started speaking in Greek. My insides started to swirl, and it wasn’t from nerves.

Damn that was hot hearing him talk in Greek.

“Stop,” I said.

He stopped the truck. Shaking my head, I added, “No, stop talking in Greek.”

“Shit. Sorry, Gabi. I’m slightly annoyed and didn’t really want you to hear all the things I was calling my mother.”

My hand covered my mouth to hide my smile.

“It was turning me on.”

Now he really stopped the truck. “What?”

Chewing on my lip, I shrugged. That’s right. I was a nervous, horny Italian woman who wanted her very handsome Greek boyfriend to take me right there in his truck.

“You’ve got to stop looking at me like that, agapiméni.”

My tongue ran along my lip. “And if I don’t?”

“I’m going to fuck you in the backseat of my truck.”

A small moan slipped from my lips. “Nic.”

He quickly parked and before we had a chance to do anything, a knock on the driver’s window caused both of us to yell out.

Turning, Nic cursed when he saw Thano standing there with a huge smile on his face.

“Let’s go, Gabi. The faster we do this the better.”

“Wait, why are you frustrated with your mom?” I asked as Nic jumped out and pushed Thano out of the way. Not waiting for him to come around to open my door, I jumped out.

“I could have told you this was going to happen,” Thano said. He was holding his five-year-old daughter in his arms and it had to be the sweetest thing ever.

Kilyn came walking up to me wearing that sweet smile of hers. She had a flush on her cheeks and I couldn’t help but return the gesture. Grinning, I gave her a hug.

“You look beautiful,” we both said.

Laughing, I shook my head. “Do you have any idea why Nic would be so mad? He started talking in Greek when we pulled up to the house.”

Kilyn made a face. “Trust me, you’re about to find out.”

As we walked behind Thano and Nic, I leaned closer and said, “That’s their house?”

She nodded. “Yep.”

“It’s beautiful. Why are there so many cars?”

Kilyn looked at me and said, “Because Greek families don’t know how to do small, Gabi. When Nic said immediate family only . . . his mother heard invite the whole family! The more the better.”

I laughed. “It can’t be that bad.”

She looked at me and flashed an evil smile. I had a feeling she was going to enjoy this.

“You came at the perfect time,” she said with a giggle.

Before I had a chance to ask what she meant, the front door of the two-story stone house flew open. “She’s here! She is here!”

Nic stopped and waited for me to walk up next to him.

“Whatever happens tonight, know this. I promise to give you the best sex of your life tonight if you don’t run from this house screaming.”

Thano laughed and hit his brother on the back as Kilyn groaned. “Nice. Promises of hot sex to smooth it over. I should have thought of that.”

Kilyn hit Thano on the chest. “Hush! Your daughter is in your arms, Thano!”

They started walking up and Katerina quickly kissed the three of them before making a straight shot to Nic.

Oh no, wait . . . shit. She was coming to me.

The next thing I knew, at least twenty more people came flooding out. All of them making their way to me.

“Help,” I whispered.

Nic looked at me and said, “We’re past that phase, baby.”

My head was spinning. After being hugged by probably every Greek woman in the state of Colorado, I was ushered into the living room where Katerina promptly brought me up to a man who I instantly knew was Nic’s father.

Nic took over. “Dad, this is Gabi. Gabi, this is my father, Dimitris.”

The older version of Nic took my hand in his and lifted it to his mouth. He smiled then kissed the back of my hand.

“You have eyes like the color of the ocean. The deepest of blue.”

I smiled. “I got them from my father.”

He nodded then glanced over to Nic. “Nicholaus, she’s beautiful.”

“And Italian,” Katerina added with a smile.

“Ah . . . Italian food is just like Greek.”

I waited for him to finish the rest of it, but he didn’t. He simply smiled at me and then winked at Nic. Maybe having Kilyn for a daughter-in-law made him more open minded.

Katerina took my arm and off we went with meeting the family.

“This is my sister Maria and her daughters Sophia, Angie, and Maria. This is my sister Agnes and her daughter Maria and son Nick. You’ve met some of them a few weeks back at the cook off.”
