"Cassian had the chef make these just for you. Are they sweet enough?"Trista set her fork down.Instead of answering, she deliberately changed the subject. "If you really are pregnant, what are you going to do?"Wynn stuffed a piece of bacon sandwich into her mouth.

"How dare you eavesdrop on Grandma and my parents?"Samantha denied it without missing a beat. "Penelope, you can't just make accusations like that. I just got here.
