Maureen Child - Triple the Fun

“You’re talking about the kiss last night?”

“No, I’m talking about what you might expect after the kiss last night.”

A little insulted at the notion that he would maneuver her and the kids to his house as a way of forcing her into his bed, Connor frowned at her. “Relax. You’ll have your own suite. I don’t need to trick women into my bed. Or force them. They come willingly enough.”

If Dina gritted her teeth any harder, her jaw might snap.

“I won’t,” she finally said, and those two words, along with the situation, tugged a smile at the corner of his mouth.

“Yeah, I seem to remember you kissing me back last night.”

“A minor bump in the road.”

“Yeah, we’ll see about that.”

“Trust me on this,” Dina said, eyes flashing, “I won’t be one of the legions of women who have rolled out of your bed.”

“Don’t paint yourself into a corner,” Connor said. “Or make vows you’ll just have to take back later.”

“That won’t happen.”

“But the move will,” he told her flatly.

“You’re where ?” Connor King didn’t bother to hide the laughter in his voice. He kicked back in his office chair, propped his feet on the edge of his desk and stared out the window at his view of the Pacific Ocean. Holding the phone to his left ear, he listened to his twin’s grumbling with a widening smile on his face.

“With the twins at the park near the house.”

“How the mighty have crashed and burned,” Connor chortled, shaking his head. Only two years ago, his identical twin, Colton, had been single, driven, a wild man who chased down every extreme adventure their company offered to other risk takers around the world.

Then Colton had found out that his ex-wife, Penny, had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl. His world had been thrown into turmoil and he’d been forced to make some real changes and face some hard truths. Though he’d nearly blown the whole thing, Colt had wised up in time to build a new life. Now he had a wife and two kids and was happier than ever before.

That didn’t mean that Connor wouldn’t give him grief at every opportunity, though.

“A playdate ,” he repeated with a laugh. “Man...”

“Yeah, yeah,” Colt muttered. “Have your laugh and get it over with. Then we can talk about the Ireland plans. You still flying over there to check things out?”

“That’s the idea,” Connor said, still chuckling. In the last year, King Extreme Adventures had morphed into King Family Adventures. When Colt had finally realized what was most important in his life, he and Connor had reevaluated their business plan. Extreme adventures were risky and dangerous, and the potential client base very limited. On the other hand, by switching the emphasis of their company to family adventures, they’d opened themselves up to a worldwide audience.
