“I’m curious. When are you going to tell Mr. Jealous over there that we’re related?” Brewer asked, dishing cobbler on their plates.

Isa snuck a glance over to the man in question. Sure enough, he was all but fuming smoke from his ears. She tried not to laugh but couldn’t help herself. Doc’s blue eyes flashed to her, and she quickly looked away.

“Soon, but I think he deserves to suffer a wee bit.” She took a spoonful of the cobbler and moaned. “Plus, this is too good to not finish every bite.”

Brewer dug into his dessert. “Queenie knows her way around the kitchen.” He waved his spoon. “The nymphs too. Honestly, they’re the ones who make the best food. Lara over there makes a fantastic crème brûlée.” He nodded to a redhead. “And Alyssa, well, her omelets are to die for.”

“You’re a foodie, then,” she stated rather than asked.

“One hundred percent. Our mother owned a bakery in Snowshoe.” He glanced over to Dolly. “Sis and I would bounce between Macha and the bakery every day after school. It was the best childhood.”

“Being around bikers all the time?” She shook her head. “I think I’d rather hang out at the bakery.”

Brewer scraped the last bit of cobbler from his plate. “I don’t have anything else to compare it to, but I think the Macha kids turned out pretty well.” He gently nudged her arm. “Doc is among them, you know.”

Isa watched the bikers finish their meal. Not one frown could be seen. Well, except for Doc. From Reaper to Snoopy’s daughter, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. It warmed her heart to see such a large group of people getting along. She’d never been huge on crowds, and her mother’s side of the family was limited to one other member who never had children. Isa grew up alone save for Orla and Niall.

“It’s such a small world,” Brewer commented, pushing his chair back. “Who would’ve thought your dad and my uncle were related.”

“It’s funny how the universe connects us.” She noticed Doc chatting with Dolly. “Have any plans for the rest of the night?”

Brewer glanced to Doc and then back. “I was going to take stock of the liquor downstairs, then head to the poker game, but I’m open to suggestion.”

“I’ll help you with the liquor.” She stood and linked her arm with his. That got an immediate reaction from Doc, but she merely walked toward the exit. When they cleared the door, she breathed a sigh of relief.

“He’s an idiot, by the way,” Brewer said, leading them toward the patio.

“Why’s that?”

“Isa, if you and I weren’t related, and if you were even remotely interested in me, I wouldn’t sit idly by and let some other guy drool all over you.” He winked at her. “But hey, we’re only like third cousins….”

She rolled her eyes. “Ha ha. Not happening, sorry.”

“Damn. Had to try.” He opened the patio door. “Reaper built the liquor cellar away from the beer one because, well, Macha men like to drink, and it’s better to keep them separated.
