“Me either.”

“Reese Reynolds has a nice ring to it.” He nipped at my bottom lip.

“It does. Forever has a nice ring, too.”

“You were always my forever. It just took us a little bit to figure it out.” He kissed me before pulling back. “I love you, Reese.”

“I love you more.”

And I tugged his lips back down to mine.

Because once you realized that you’d found your forever, you wanted to start living it right now.

And that was exactly what I planned to do.

Reeseand I had never done anything by the book. We’d been the best of friends long before we were ever lovers. We didn’t become lovers until we were fake dating. She moved out of my house after she found out she was pregnant. And we were having a wedding that everyone thought was a Sunday dinner. Oh, yeah, and we were also going to announce that we were having a baby, too.

Being conventional was boring.

I was a big believer in trusting your gut. If it feels right. If it feels good.

Do it.

Hugh and Lila had brought in boxes of food, and we were setting it up on the kitchen island. My parents were asking me a slew of questions about when I was leaving next week to start shootingBig Sky Ranch, but I wasn’t ready to answer all their questions just yet. I had bigger things on my mind.

Much better things.

The fact that I was going to marry the only girl, the only woman I’d ever loved. And this wasn’t a casual kind of love. This was anI’ll burn down the world for youkind of love. The kind that you know is forever.

Georgia and Maddox were talking to Reese’s parents.

Brinkley and Lincoln were home for a couple of weeks as he’d wrapped up his season. They’d made it to the Super Bowl, and though they didn’t walk away with the win, it was still an amazing year for the Thunderbirds.

My brother-in-law was one hell of a player.

Cage was currently trying to explain to me why he brought a fucking pig to my house for Sunday dinner.

“Dude, I can’t make this shit up. Maxine is fixated on me now. If I don’t bring her with me, she goes batshit crazy. Martha and Joe better get home soon because I’m done with piggy daycare.”

“Ridiculous. I think you like it. She’s the only woman you seem to want to spend time with.” I smirked because guess what? I didn’t fucking care that he brought a pig to my house, which technically meant that he’d brought a pig to my wedding.

He just didn’t know it yet.

“I’m done with women for a while.”

“Yeah? Does that have anything to do with the story that just broke on the internet?”

“I have no idea what you’re referring to.” He smirked. He knew. He’d texted me about it an hour ago.

“Well, I just saw it. Do you think it’s true?” Brinkley asked, looking around like what we were talking about was a top-secret mission for the FBI.

“It’s public record. And where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire,” I said.

“Are we talking about Presley Duncan?” Hugh asked as he walked into the huddle.
