Breathless (Steel Brothers Saga 10) - Page 95

“He let me come back, though,” Jade said.

“Bryce let me come back,” I said. “This was our second time, after he’d told me it could never happen again.”

“Then accept it. Accept that all you can have is sex right now. Maybe it will turn

into something more for him. It did with Talon.”

“What if he doesn’t come back for more?” I asked, almost in a whine. I hated whiny women.

“I think he will.”

“But what if he doesn’t? I don’t want to go to him. I can’t throw myself at him any more than I already have. I’m not used to being the aggressor”—I smiled—“at least not until we actually get to bed.”

“If he doesn’t, he doesn’t. It is what it is, Marj. There are other men out there.”

“Where?”

Jade shook her head. “Everywhere.”

“Not in Snow Creek.”

“Are you kidding me? We have hundreds of men right here on the ranch.”

“Fifty-year-old ranch hands who’ve been around since I was born? I don’t think so.”

“They’re not all fifty years old. A lot of them are young and hot, Marj, with amazing muscles from the outdoor work. Plus, check out some of the guys in the marketing department. Or that new guy Ryan hired to help with creating the wines. Wowza.”

“Aren’t you married to my brother?”

“And that means I can’t look? Men don’t become less hot just because you get married. Plus, I’ve been feeling so sick, ogling men is one of the few pleasures I have these days.”

That got a giggle out of me. “You’ve never been an ogler.”

“Maybe not. But I can still appreciate male beauty. There’s a lot of it here on the ranch.”

“You’ve hardly left your bedroom for the last couple months.”

“True. But I haven’t always been pregnant. I’ve lived here for almost a year now.”

“Are you kidding? You haven’t had eyes for anyone but Talon since you got here.”

“Okay, you got me. You’re right. But there are plenty of hot young men right here for you to choose from.”

“What am I supposed to do?”

“Choose one. Go on a date.”

“Who’s going to want to date me?”

“A beautiful ranch heiress? Who isn’t going to want to date you?”

I laughed. A date. What a concept. I hadn’t been on a date in a while. With Bryce, we’d gone straight to bed. No dates. No just having fun being with each other.

I actually missed dating. I wanted to date.

Problem was, I wanted to date Bryce.

I opened my mouth to say as much but was waylaid by my phone. A text. From Talon.
