The Guy in the Middle (The Underdogs 3) - Page 25

“Why would you do that?”

“You wouldn’t understand. It’s a sister thing. She’s been trying to get me to take the leap for a hot minute.”

“I’d say you did a pretty good job.” I rub her silky hair between my fingers, itching for another go with her.
