“No.” I shook my head. “What was she doing?”

“She had on makeup and was dancing around.” He shook his head. “She has really let these city girls change her.”

‘Um, what?” I stared at my brother for a few seconds. “You’re complaining because she’s trying to look pretty?”

“What are you going to do when she gets a boyfriend, dude?” Chet added.

“What are you talking about?” Wyatt snapped.

“Your best friend has gone all girly.” Chet laughed. “And she’s always talking about boys now. She’s not going on about mucking the stables anymore.”

Wyatt glared at him. “I have no idea what has come over her, but she needs to snap out of it.”

“Why?” I asked him. “You date. Why can’t she date as well? I think little Sadie deserves a good man.”

“Well, I think Olivia deserves a good man.” He made a face at me, and I just pressed my lips together. I wasn’t going to let him rile me up. If my idiot brother didn’t have a clue about his love life, that was on him.

Chapter Fifty-Five

Olivia

Brittany sashayed back into the backyard. I looked behind her to see if Beau was with her, but I didn’t see him. I turned away and looked at Lucy so Brittany couldn’t see that I cared. But she walked directly over to me.

“You’re Olivia, right?”

“Yeah.” I nodded slowly.

She glared at me. “I had a feeling.”

“Excuse me?”

“Beau wanted me to give you a message.”

“Um, okay.”

“So I wanted to make sure that you’re Olivia.”

“We just confirmed that, right?”

“Yeah. He did say to look for the sluttiest woman in the back, and I saw you. So I kind of knew.”

“He what?”

“Well, he wanted me to tell you that he’s coming back to my place right now. He’s actually just gone to pack some things in his bag, and we’re going to be leaving. So have fun at the party.” She looked me up and down. “I can’t believe he even gave you a second glance. But I guess he’s come to his senses now.”

“Excuse me? I don’t—”

“You know exactly what I’m saying. Leave my man alone. And if I were you, I’d be gone by the time he gets back. No one likes a desperate woman.”

“I’m not desperate. And I couldn’t care less about Beau Hamilton.”

“Sure, honey,” she said, looking at me and then over to Lucy. “You must be the leftovers Austin hooked up with.” She started laughing. “I guess he’s slumming it as well.”

Lucy just laughed. “You think Austin’s slumming it with me?”

“No, honey. I don’t think; I know.” Brittany batted her eyelashes at us, and then looked back around the yard. “Such a beautiful place, Horseshoe Ranch. I can’t wait till I’m the matriarch of this family.”

“What are you even talking about?” said Lucy.
