Linda Warren - A Baby by Christmas

Beau moved restlessly at Jake’s disquiet, then asked, “How did you and Elise get together? It was a known fact around the club that no one was to come on to her because she was still in love with Derek Weber. The few men who tried still have frostbite. Then I hear my brother’s actually married her. What was it? Opposites attracting?”

“Sex, Beau, that’s what it was,” Jake replied before he could help himself. “I enjoy it and so does she.”

Beau frowned. “You’re being crude.”

“And you’re being intrusive and nosing into matters that don’t concern you,” Jake shot back.

Beau held up both hands. “Okay, I get the message.”

“I’m sorry,” Jake apologized, realizing he was being curt for no reason. “I’m not discussing my marriage. That’s between Elise and me.”

Beau watched him for a second. “Is there any chance she’ll come around?”

“No.” That one word sent a chill to his heart.

After a pause, Beau said, “This is a bit ironic and the similarity might escape you, but your attitude toward Caleb is about the same as Elise’s to Ben.”
