“Motherhood’s made her soft,” Brooklyn whispered conspiratorially when she noticed me staring up at Letty.

“Princess, I’m leaving.”

I glanced up at Wilson.

He might’ve been speaking to me but he was staring down at baby Maverick.

The sweet look on his face threatened to make my ovaries explode.

I did a quick look around the bookstore.

This was now my life—a group of great women who were quickly becoming close friends, my gram, my man, his friends.

I had a new job at the resort—one that didn’t include planning sex parties but weddings instead.

Life was good.

No, better than good—it was great.

The only pall was my father. He’d been smug when I told him I was leaving Vegas and disappointed I was moving to Idaho. After a twenty-minute lecture about how I was wasting my life, I’d hung up. And hadn’t answered the last two calls.

One day I’d need to patch things up with the Good Doctor, but that was for later.

Now I was simply enjoying my new life.

“Kiss before I go,” Wilson demanded.

I slid off the couch, shuffled between the chairs, and went to my man. When I was within reaching distance he tagged me around the back of the neck and gave me a long, wet kiss that was entirely inappropriate.

When he broke the kiss and looked down at me, his blue eyes happy, I no longer cared my grandmother had witnessed Wilson making out with me.

“Enjoy your book club,” he said as he swiped his thumb over my lips.

Suddenly communing with my friends no longer held the same appeal as going home and having Wilson all to myself.

Then in a very un-Wilson move he winked before he let me go.

Wilson McCray winking.

Holy Hannah.

“Mrs. S.” Wilson dipped his chin. “See you in a bit.”

“Willy, child, don’t you think it’s time you call me Gram?”

Willy?

Oh. My. God.

I felt Wilson’s body start to shake before his laughter rang out.

The others followed.

My grandmother’s smile said she was right proud of herself.

Yes. I was living the good life.
