Her body shook as little gasps left her sexy mouth, and I pumped into her once more.

And that was all it took.

I went right over the edge with her.

Just like I always did.

I think I’m going to buy a place in Cottonwood Cove. Now that I’m living in the city, I want to have a place I can go to on the weekends.

I’d been telling him how we took the boat out the last few weekends, and he knew how much I liked living here now.

Dad said he wants to get a place here now, too. You’re all so fucking clingy.

Wyle

It’s all your fault.

How is this my fault?

Wyle

When the grumpiest dude on the planet is living his best life, people take notice, dickhead.

Because I’m happy, you’re all going to punish me by moving here?

He knew I was kidding, because having Wyle nearby had been really nice. My family was slowly healing from all the anger and loss that we’d experienced. My father wasn’t my favorite person, nor did I ever think we’d be close, but I wasn’t going to ice him out anymore. Claire was a good woman, and they were having a baby, and for whatever reason, I didn’t want to miss out on that. We still had work to do, but we were moving in the right direction.

Wyle

Damn straight. Can Georgia set me up with some of her friends?

Well, the fact that you want her to set you up with multiple women is a bad sign. She’s not going to go for that.

Wyle

I don’t know. Your girl is pretty soft on me. She baked me my favorite cookies when I was in town last week. You better watch your back, brother.

Not a fucking chance. She likes the broody, brilliant type.

Wyle

Even though you’re an arrogant fucker, I’m happy for you, Maddox. You deserve this.

Now you’re going soft on me?

Wyle

Nothing soft over here, brother. And if you tell anyone what I said, I’ll deny it and tell them that you used to sleep with that penguin stuffed animal Mom got you until you were thirteen.

That was you, asshole. Love you, too.

Wyle

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Love you, dickhead. See you in a few days. You’re coming to look at spec homes with me on Saturday.
