HARRISON

I hate these meetings.

Boardroom full of smug suits who think my last name is a footnote and my résumé a typo. Half of them pretend to listen while checking the value of their weekend homes. The other half are waiting for me to trip over a decimal point so they can pounce like it proves something.

I didn’t go to Stanford. I didn’t come from old money. I didn’t intern because my dad pulled s

    AMELIASix Months Later…“Have a great day at work, baby girl,” Richie says as he leans in close to kiss me, placing his hand directly on my stomach. He rubs just the slightest, and those butterflies flutter all over again.Of course, it could be the nausea too, which makes me a little anxious, but before I can say anything, Dane steps in with my travel mug full of ginger tea. It’s the only thing that’s been helping me get through the mornings.“Thanks,” I say as Tripp rounds the corner with Lyla in his arms.“You ready, Mamma Mia?” he asks with a grin.Richie groans. “I don’t know why you insist on daycare when Dane and I could watch her.”“She needs socialization, Rich,” Tripp bites out. “She needs exposure to other kids.”Richie rolls his eyes. “She’ll have plenty of exposure to another kid in…six months, is that right?” He looks at me in question.“That is correct,” Dane says before I can

    AMELIA I let out a deep breath, stilling my nerves. Tonight is the home game.I don’t know why I’m so nervous. It’s not like I haven’t been to a game. I’ve been to plenty. But this feels bigger.Dane and Richie are playing, but Tripp is technically my date. It’s the first official date we’ve gone on, which feels both strange and not strange at all.“Pretzel?” He offers me part of his giant pretzel as we sit in the seats.I tear off a piece and smile. “Thanks.”We settle into our seats which are right up against the glass. The arena fills up quickly, as Tripp and I devour our box of popcorn, pretzel, and nachos.“What?” I ask, mid-pretzel bite.“Nothing, I’m just…really glad we’re doing this,” he says. “A date.”

    RICHARD “Alrighty, give her whirl, baby girl.” I cross my arms, waiting for Amelia to turn the car on. It jolts to life, purring like a kitten, and she squeals in delight.“You did it! You fixed my car!” She’s practically jumping up and down in the car and I smile.“I told you I’d take care of it,” I say as I head to her driver’s side. She looks at me from her seat, her blue eyes sparkling with interest.“Thank you,” she says as she kisses me through the open window.“Anytime,” I say.“You want to go for a test ride?” she asks.After spending all day yesterday talking to my lawyer and whatnot, I know she could use a break, and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t need one too. I know divorce and custody aren’t the same thing, but it’s sti

  • In-Love with More than One   Chapter 24

    AMELIA I’ve never felt both so exhausted and well rested at the same time. Truthfully, it’s an odd phenomenon. I’m sore in all the places that count, and I know that should make me feel something other than blissed-out. But I can’t stop smiling or thinking about what happened last night. Or the night before that.Or the night before that…Yesterday was truly a perfect day. I woke up to breakfast being cooked by Dane while Tripp did his best to entertain and feed my daughter, who was not having anything to do with his attempts. And when I watched Richie swoop in and grab her, hip checking Tripp softly, I can honestly say I’d never felt so full of love.After several showers of kisses, Richie and I left so I could put some more applications in at the shops in town. We spent the afternoon tog

    TRIPP Two times now, I have found my girlfriend—because yes, that’s what she is to me, my girlfriend, though I have no clue how Dane or Richie feel in that regard, but I don’t care—tangled up with my stepbrothers.Although, last time it was only one of them, and that discovery had been bad enough.Seeing her sandwiched between Richie and Dane was not something I thought I’d ever see. Sure, we all agreed to be open with the truth. We’re dating the same woman.We’re fucking the same woman. At least…they are fucking her.Me? Not so much.But it’s easier to accept Amelia as my girlfriend and feel comfortable with where we are when I’m not staring at the evidence right in front of my fucking face. And it’s not just the sight, if I’m being honest.

  • In-Love with More than One   Chapter 22

    AMELIAI can’t remember the last time I felt so well rested since having Lyla. It’s been barely four days since I moved in with Dane, Tripp, and Richie, and things have been more than eventful. I have an interview next week, at a boutique on main street, and I’m hoping it pans out. It’s only part-time, but at this rate, I’ll take anything as long as it’s close and it pays enough for me to have my own place.Though the more time I spend with the boys, the more I have to admit that I like having them around.The other night, Richard and I connected in a way I didn’t think was possible with anyone, let alone him. His honesty was more than just endearing. Listening to him talk about his divorce, his understanding of that loneliness, that strange transition between what you knew and the unknown…I had never felt like someone understood me so well, especially someone who barely knows me. But I felt that. I felt his hon

    GAVINI let the silence settle for a second. Two. Then I speak, voice sharp. “You’re worried about judgment? Invite Vanessa to the next board meeting. Maybe she can leak the minutes while she’s there.”Vivian’s mouth tightens. Just a little. “She made mistakes,” she says carefully. “But she’s still

If the audio leak came from their system—and I’m positive it did—they’ll find the signature.They always do.But I’m still wound tight. Too tight. My whole bo

She’s not on the calendar, which pisses off our front desk—but Bryce doesn’t give a shit about protocol. She never has.She walks in wearing black silk pants, platform boots, a cher

    PARKERJack stands, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. “Let’s take her to the desk.”“Agreed,” Gavin says, already clearing the top.Harrison lifts me easily, sets me down on the cool wood with my knees apart, arms still bound, lips swollen from kisses, breath ragged from the comedown.
