“So, you’re the America’s Cup guy?” Nick asked as the ladies left the table.

Zac reached for his water glass and nodded. “You’re the...titan of industry, right?”

Nick gave a shout of laughter. “I’m guessing that’s what Adler said. I know for damn sure your father and brother don’t call me that.”

“No, they usually throw in some derogatory curse words,” Zac allowed. Nick was a really nice guy and it was clear to Zac that Nick truly loved Adler. Zac saw real affection between them. Having grown up with parents who had been in and out of love with each other several times, Zac knew how rare that kind of bond was.

“I do the same when referring to them. I’m trying to make peace for Adler’s sake,” Nick said. “I was surprised by the invitation to your grandmother’s for lunch tomorrow.”

“Me too,” Zac admitted. “I don’t think my dad is mellowing, he just knows there will be hell to pay if he upsets Adler. She’s my mom’s only connection to her sister and she is pulling out all the stops to make the wedding is everything that Adler wants.”

“I know. It’s so crazy. I like your mom, by the way. She’s sweet and funny,” he said. “Makes me wonder how she raised a shark like Logan.”

“Fair enough, but I think Logan was always Dad’s shadow, not Mom’s, so that might be one explanation. He’s a great guy away from the office,” Zac said. He and his siblings were very close, but he was realistic enough to know that they had both good and bad qualities. “We’re all very driven.”

“I’ve seen that. What’s going on with your America’s Cup team? I heard a rumor that you’re looking for financing,” Nick said.

“I’m not,” Zac said. Using the Collins connection to finance his bid was one thing, accepting financing from his families’ business rivals would put Zac in direct confrontation with his father and Logan. Something that Zac wasn’t interested in doing. He wanted to do this on his own; he had never been looking to piss off his family.

“Okay, but if that changes, I’m interested,” Nick said.

“Dude, you know that I can’t even contemplate doing business with you,” Zac said. “I might spend most of my time on a yacht but if I accepted an investment from you, I’d never be able to come home again. As sweet as my mom has been to you, she’d be royally ticked at the both of us, and let me tell you, that isn’t a good thing to be on the receiving end of.”

Nick put his hands up. “Gotcha. I’m just always looking for new investments.”

“And if it happens to piss off the Bissets, all the better?” Zac asked.

“Sometimes, but honestly that’s more my dad’s thing than mine. I go after sound investments, not just things I think August Bisset wants,” Nick said.

“So you didn’t start dating Adler because she’s related to my mom?” Zac asked.

“Not at all. She’s not a Bisset, which of course
