“The ring is beautiful, Mak. But, uh...exactly how are you going to keep Addie from kicking you in the balls long enough to get it on her finger?”

Maikao looked at Carmen, waggling his brows. “All in the plans, my little Latin chef...all in the plans.”

She snorted and sat back. “Those plans better include a mouth guard and cup. I told you that Neanderthal bullshit wouldn’t go well.”

He sighed. “Yeah, you did.” Maikao had fucked up royally with the stunt he’d pulled a week ago. He still couldn’t explain why or how but seeing Addison that close to Eli, watching the two of them grin in one another’s faces like they shared some well-kept secret... The last shred of his control snapped. Knowing that he had no one to blame but himself didn’t help at all.

His father had told him a long time ago that he was incredibly smart, but could do some incredibly stupid shit when he wasn’t thinking things through. The old man hadn’t been wrong. As an only child of two parents who’d been married over thirty years, Maikao was spoiled, to say the least. He was used to getting his way and when it came to women…well, he’d never had any trouble.

With his father’s height, broad shoulders, and strong Samoan features combined with his mother’s smile and eyes, Maikao had known at an early age that he was a fairly attractive kid. That worried Kalei—his mother. Meanwhile, his father Malo had simply handed him a box of condoms at the age of sixteen, patted him on the shoulder and said, “Use them wisely.”

Maikao had gone on to do just that and becoming a firefighter seemed to help his social status in the dating pool all the more. It wasn’t as though that very thing had been an intentional move. Being a firefighter was ingrained in his DNA. His father had done it. Hell, it was even the way his parents met. Malo had rescued Kalei when her apartment building caught fire due to faulty wiring in the basement.

All the Iona men, dating all the way back to the early 19oos, had become at least a lieutenant in their respective departments by the age of forty. He loved his job, loved what he did but he’d begun to hate the fact that people—women in particular—kept associating it with his looks. That had gotten old a long time ago. He was to blame, having set the tone with the way the opposite sex looked at him. Maikao had gone through more women than he could count, always being careful to make sure they knew he had no intentions of settling down, and he was not yet ready to make that type of commitment.

But the night he’d met Addison, that all changed. It wasn’t so much that her ass was hanging halfway out of her dress...okay, that was a part of it, but after Maikao got to talk to her, get to know her, he realized she was different. She hadn’t even batted a lash when he told her what he did for a living.
