“Hello, ma’am. Nice to meet you.”

“Hi, Ian. It’s my pleasure. I didn’t know Bo had a nephew.”

“Seven. There are seven of us.”

Her mouth opened, and her eyes widened as she looked from Ian to him. “Oh. Wow.”

“Luggage has been delivered to the master suite. You want me to send Marta in to get lunch ready?”

“Yes, please. Much appreciated. Also, can you make sure Cookie knows that more guests are arriving tomorrow around noon so he can start prepping early?”

“Yes, sir.” He gave Bo a nod. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Reed. You’re definitely prettier in person.”

Her smile was magnanimous, and Bo knew it wasn’t the first time she’d heard those words.

“Thank you, Ian. It was lovely meeting you.”

His nephew crossed to the hallway and was out of sight.

“Well, he’s a charmer. Must run in the family.”

“My sister’s oldest. She’s got a big family.”

“All seven are hers?”

He nodded.

“She must’ve been pregnant forever.”

“For about a decade.”

“Wow.” Windsor blinked as if it was something she’d never considered.

“Let me show you to your room.”

“You mean, your room?”

“While you’re here, what’s mine is yours.”

She hadn’t been trying to be polite when she said charm ran in the family. Bo was a consummate host, especially as he led her up the curving double staircase that reached the second floor with his hand on the small of her back.

She was still wearing her coat, but she wished she’d removed it when he offered. She wanted to feel the heat of his hand soak through her shirt and into her skin.

Wait. Win stopped herself. Slow down.

But she couldn’t. He was leading her into the bedroom suite she planned to share with him on occasion while she was here.

“Oh, goodness. It’s stunning too.”

“So are you.”

Win turned away from the stone fireplace that ran up from the center of the house and lined one whole wall of the bedroom to meet his flashing aqua gaze.

There was no question they both had something else on their minds.

Bo stood in front of the huge log bed that had to be custom-made.
