“It’s really nice of you to invite me to your brother’s house for dinner,” Emma said two days later as she sat in the passenger seat of Nathan’s luxury sedan.

“Ha, like he had a choice,” Leigh said with a snort from the back seat. “Megan and Chase want to meet you. He was told to bring us both to dinner. No arguments.”

Emma turned and looked at her friend. “Still, it’s nice of Nathan to drive.”

Again, Leigh snorted. “You’re thanking him for nothing. He’s one of those guys who always drives. Always. He’s got that have-to-be-in-control thing that prevents him from letting someone else take over.” She tapped her brother on the shoulder. “Isn’t that right, Nathan?”

“Huh? Are you talking to me? I thought you were going to just talk about me the whole drive without once acknowledging that I’m sitting right here. I was worried for a second that I’d gone invisible.”

Leigh laughed, and Emma couldn’t help smiling at Nathan’s good-natured teasing.

“You’re such a jerk,” Leigh said, laughter still tinting her voice. “Seriously, tell Emma how you always like to be in charge.”

“I only like to be in charge, Leigh, because I’m always right about things.”

Emma had to laugh now. “Oh, please. No one is always right. Everyone is occasionally wrong.”

“Even you?” Leigh teased. “I thought you were always right.”

“Hyperbole.”

“Not Nathan,” Leigh said from the back seat. “I can’t think of a single time when he’s been wrong. It really fries my hush puppies, but it’s true.”

That was ridiculous and couldn’t possibly be accurate. “He wouldn’t be human if he didn’t make mistakes,” Emma said. And she, of all people, knew that Nathan was human. Boy oh boy, did she ever. The man was definitely flesh and blood and kisses hot enough to make her toes curl.

Just the thought of the last kiss they’d shared distracted her to the point where it took a couple of seconds for her to realize Leigh was talking to her.

“...so when the weather people said it wasn’t going to rain, Daddy told Nathan he was about to be proven wrong. But it didn’t rain. It poured. It deluged. Just like Nathan said it would. So even as a kid, he was never wrong.”

Although Emma had missed the first part of Leigh’s story, she’d heard enough to get the gist of it.

“That’s an educated guess,” Emma said. She shifted in her seat to look at Nathan. He seemed highly amused by the entire conversation. No doubt his ego was feeling pretty well fed with his sister singing his praises this way.

But come on! Never wrong? It was impossible.

And blatantly untrue. Two nights ago, when he’d kissed her, he’d been wrong. They both had agreed not to kiss anymore, and yet, Nathan had broken that promise. He’d kissed her. Okay, so she had started it, but he had kissed her back.

But that was an example she couldn’t share with Leigh.

“And then there’s Rufus,” Leigh went on. “Last year, everyone said there was no way to get that dog into a car and take him to the vet.
