Alex chuckled over the phone.
“Okay, go handle your business. Just don’t drink too much. Be careful. I’ll call a car myself.
I’m not going back to Wildridge Manor. I’ll stay at my little place for a few days. If I go back, Mom will roll her eyes again, like being single is a crime. Brother River isn’t even married yet, but he already brought his girlfriend home to meet the parents, and now Mom’s so anxious.
Come on—Brother River is almost thirty-two. I still have a year or two before I even hit thirty.”
He smirked. “And River always said he wouldn’t marry until thirty-five. I thought that meant we’d get a few more years of peace, but before summer even ends, he’s already bringing a girlfriend home. That’s fast.”
Sworn enemies turning into lovers. Brother River really is something.
River and Romina have known each other for years. If they’re serious, they’ll probably marry soon.
Now it’s Alex’s turn to act as the shield—Rowan’s shield.
