EXCERPT:

   

I made my way to the kitchen where I spotted Everleigh perched on Hunter’s lap as

he fed her an omelet. I grabbed a Greek yogurt from the fridge before joining them at the

kitchen table.

“I think I liked you better when you were all reserved and aloof…this touchy-feely

Hunter is kind of freaking me out,” I teased.

In reality, I was overjoyed to see my best friend finally receiving the affection and love

she deserved. Ev and Hunter’s journey to couplehood had been fraught with secrecy and

delayed gratification. At one point, I had debated drugging them both and throwing them

into bed together to speed up the process. I was getting sexually frustrated just watching

their self-denial…I’m not sure how Ev didn’t combust.

“You are just jealous you don’t have one of Hunter’s famous omelets. My man has many

talents—big, impressive talents.”

“Are you offering me a sample of Hunter’s impressive talent?”

Ev nearly spit the coffee out of her mouth.

“Paws off lady, I don’t share.”

“You always did monopolize all the good toys when we were kids, never sharing your

Malibu Barbie.”

“For the hundredth time, you had the same freaking Malibu Barbie, along with

her Malibu mansion, convertible, coordinating wardrobe, scooter, and whatever other

accessories Mattel had marketed that year. There was no reason for you to want my Malibu

Barbie,” Ev returned with exasperation. This was an ancient debate, which may pre-date

the conflict in the Middle East.

“But your Malibu Barbie had a couture hand-sewn wardrobe and Meme painted Barbie’s

nails with that little marker—so stylish…so me.”

“And then mom sewed a coordinating wardrobe for your Barbie and painted her nails.

There was no difference.”

“But your Barbie was the first, the trendsetter. Mine was just a copycat wannabe.”

Ev threw her hands in the air dramatically. “I give up! Fine, you want my Malibu

Barbie? We can switch. Will that make you happy and finally end this ridiculous debate?”

“No need, I switched them during a sleepover one night. I’ve had the innovative

fashionista for the last thirteen years.”

“Are you freaking kidding me? You stole my Barbie? What is wrong with you?” she

asked, no longer pretending to be annoyed by our age-old dispute…oops, I probably

shouldn’t have fessed up to that particular truth.

I shrugged. “Sorry, but you really didn’t appreciate her. You didn’t even notice when I

made the swap—what kind of mother are you?”

Ev lunged across the table and would have caught me if Hunter’s arm hadn’t locked

around her waist and hauled her back into his lap.

“Why you—“ Ev didn’t get the chance to finish what was sure to be a scathing reprimand

because Hunter’s mouth was on hers in the blink of an eye, distracting her with what I can only say was impressive technique.

When he finally broke the kiss, Ev was glassy-eyed and breathless.

“Would you like an omelet, Sam?” Hunter asked as if he had not just laid a scorching

kiss on my best friend seconds before. Bravo, Hunter, bravo.

“You are not preparing breakfast for that…that…Barbie snatcher. Come on, Mr. FBI

Man, can’t you drag her down to headquarters and charge her with something? She may

have even departed the country with Barbie at some point. That’s a federal offense—do

something useful with that badge of yours.”

 Hunter rose, somehow managing to hoist Everleigh over his shoulder, and started down

the hall.

“Excuse us, Sam. Your best friend evidently needs a reminder of how useful I can be.”

I could hear Ev’s half-hearted protests as Hunter shut her bedroom door. I laughed

aloud at their antics. Ev was one of the most determined people I had ever met. She could

easily steamroll over most adversaries. It was divine intervention that she fell head over

heels for the one man who could best her. He challenged her and she loved every minute of

it. They were a unit, stronger together than their individual halves.
