Relief coursed through me at her agreement.

“Good,” I said. “Let’s get these boxes into my house.”

Saylor

The men of the KPD Motorcycle Patrol were all hot.

Extremely hot.

Even Jonah, Lock’s uncle, was hot.

Though, saying that, he wasn’t like any uncle I’d ever seen before.

I held out my hand to him and smiled.

“Saylor,” I said.

He took it with a grin. “Jonah.”

“Can I call you Uncle Jonah?” I batted my eyelashes at him.

The woman at his side started to snicker.

My eyes flicked to hers just as Jonah said, “Sure.”

“You’re not calling him Uncle Jonah.” Lock hooked his arm around my neck and pulled me into his side. “I don’t even call him that.”

I grinned at the familiar-looking woman standing next to Jonah.

“Why do I know you?” I asked, frowning hard.

Then it hit me.

“Piper!” I said, clapping my hands. “When did you get back? And Jesus, you’re beautiful. When did you get so beautiful?”

Piper started to laugh.

“I lost some weight when I started bootcamp.” She grinned. “It’s nice to see you again, Saylor. And as for when I got back, not too long ago, actually. I’ve been out of the Army officially for a couple of months now.”

I grinned. “It’s like one massive family reunion,” I said as I watched Justice and Royal walk up hand in hand. “Aren’t y’all supposed to be on a honeymoon?”

Justice made a face. “Somebody forgot her passport. We missed our first flight because we had to drive back home. Then the resort canceled our reservations since we didn’t arrive on time…so it just seemed like the best idea to stay at home until we can plan another one.”

I winced, looking at Royal who was looking quite guilty.

“I’m counting it as a win,” she said, waving her hand through the air as if to clear it. “I heard that there were fifteen people murdered in Mexico over the weekend. I’m choosing to think we would’ve been two of them had we gone and fate not intervened.”

My lips twitched.

“Those people were fishing off-shore and their boat capsized,” another newcomer added.

I looked over to see a tall, and extremely hot man in boots, jeans, and a t-shirt walk up with his arm around a brown-headed woman who looked just as beautiful as the man, come to a stop next to Jonah and Piper.

I knew the woman, too, but couldn’t place her like I’d placed Piper.

“We were scheduled to go deep sea fishing.” She shrugged. “I’m not sure if that was the boat we would’ve been on…”
