Chapter One
RIFF
(a little while back in the series)
Iwoke up in my bed with my biggest enemy’s sister in my arms.
Normally, I wasn’t the cuddling type. It sent too many wrong signals and caused a hell of a lot of problems. Although having a person’s body touching yours wasn’t the worst feeling in the world. It made you feel not so alone. It felt comfortable. Cozy.
Of course, that depended on the body.
Last thing I needed in my life was to have someone cuddling against me, wake up and have that look in their eyes.
You know the look…
That sleepy, sex-all-night look that suggests breakfast.
That breakfast then suddenly leads to holding hands on the beach, me on one knee asking her to be my wife. Then we’re looking at houses too far away from the beach. Debating if we like the house with the white picket fence or the house with the nice landscaping. Then she’s pregnant, popping out babies like a popcorn machine turning hard kernels into warm, soft popcorn just before a good movie.
Then the house is full of kids and problems.
Soccer practice.
Ballet lessons.
Too much wine.
Too much frustration.
Yeah, all from cuddling.
Never a need to cuddle.
Except when it came to Fiona.
Fiona.
Remi’s sister.
Fuck.
Of all the women in the world to have in bed… I had to have Remi’s sister here.
The guy who hated me more than anything else in the world.
The guy who used to be my best friend.
Now we hated each other and were desperate to throw punches any chance we got.
Not to mention the fact we were on the same hockey team.
Fate had an odd way of working at times.
Remi had a messed up shoulder and needed surgery.
That brought Fiona to town.
The past had always been the past for all of us.
