The thought of Harper decked out in tight ski gear was enough to pull me out of my funk.

“Okay, my mood just drastically improved at that thought.”

“Guys,” Nathan said with a sheepish grin., “This is our sister’s best friend we’re talking about.”

“Yeah, so? She’s hot as fuck,” Aiden said. “I see the way you look at her with those puppy dog eyes, Nate. Admit it, you’d totally love to get with her.”

“She’s heartbroken,” Nathan said, not denying Aiden’s statement at all.

“You know what they say, Nate. The best way to get over someone is to get underneath someone else,” I teased.

Nathan rolled his eyes and shook his head. “You guys are crude.”

“But you haven’t denied that you like the thought of it,” Aiden countered.

“No, because the idea is enticing, sure–”

“And it would help you get over Carly,” Aiden added.

“What do you mean? That was three years ago, Iamover her.”

Both Aiden and I looked at Nathan.

“Iamover her,” Nathan reiterated.

“Sure, Nate. Let’s say you are. Still, the idea of Harper, in bed, that curvy body naked in front of you… that doesn’t appeal to you at all?”

“Oh, it appeals to me. I’m a warm-blooded man, after all. I just think we need to be careful here, tread lightly. She’s our sister’s best friend and she’s been hurt recently. We don’t want to cause her more harm than we already have.”

“It’s not like it’s going to actually happen,” I added, sitting back in the chair with a grin. “But wouldn’t it be nice if it did?”

“Yeah, it’s a fun fantasy, but it needs to stay that way—a fantasy,” Nathan said, though he didn’t sound too sure of himself. He had always been the brother who spoke logically. But I could tell part of him really wanted to be with Harper in the same we did.

“Sure, a fantasy,” I said, shrugging it off.

Because let’s face it, there was no way sweet, innocent Harper Olson was going to sleep with any one of us.

Much less all three of us.

Aiden

Fuck skiing.

Seriously, fuck it.

I never told a soul how much I hated skiing because Dad would have shamed me for it and since my brothers loved it so much, I didn’t want to be the odd one out. I was already the black sheep for so much other shit, but for some reason, I kept skiing so I could spend time with my family and hopefully win my father’s favor.

It never worked. The winning Dad’s favor, that is.

Besides that my brothers and I often fought the entire time so I wasn’t sure why I thought this time would be any different.

Then Harper came down the stairs dressed in form-fitting snow pants and suddenly, I was ready and willing to spend all day on the slopes.

Her red hair was pulled back into a braid that fell over her shoulder. She had on pink and white ski pants that I’d never seen before and a matching pink jacket. It was a little snug, especially up top since she was pretty curvy, but I sure as hell wasn’t complaining.

“How do I look?” Harper asked.
