Maggie stretched. The past two hours spent surfing the web in her quest for information had put a kink in her back and a yearning for coffee in her soul.

She released the stretch and let her eyes wander outside, to the view of the west side of the house.

A good distance separated the inn from its next-door neighbor, a home that she’d been told housed a family of Jessops, kin to…well, from what she could tell, kin to just about everyone in town.

Christmas shopping must be a seriously expensive endeavor here in Lusty.

How did anyone have a hope of keeping all the family connections straight? Maggie shook her head. Maybe she’d just not worry about it. Or maybe she’d make herself a chart.

“Maggie?”

The sound of Richard’s voice calling her name sent a pleasant shiver down her spine. She couldn’t contain her smile. An hour ago, Trevor had stopped by, he’d said, just to check on her. He’d apologized because he and his brothers would be heading into Houston soon, for a meeting. He’d tried to convince her to come with them, but she’d declined. He’d been preceded in his quest by Kevin.

She’d been waiting for Richard to show up and repeat the offer.

Maggie had been feeling more than a little possessive of the brothers Benedict since that fabulous bout of “lusty sex” they’d indulged in four days ago.

So far, she’d avoided a replay of that very satisfying experience. Maggie felt pretty certain that casual affairs didn’t involve every single day spent in each others’ company. Neither did they result in one of the participants—namely her—spending every waking moment and several dreaming ones thinking of little else but her lovers.

She’d indulge herself in the brothers Benedict again, just as soon as what was happening between them stopped feeling like something more than what it was.

Maggie turned her face toward the door and raised her voice. “I’m in the office.”

She could hear his footsteps, and then the step of another. Not one of his brothers, as this step sounded more delicate. Feminine.

“Good morning, love.” Richard came right in and right up to her and placed a gentle kiss on her lips. As usual, whenever she tasted one of these men, the small sample just made her body cry out for a much-bigger helping.

“Good morning.” Her words brushed his lips as he kept his face so very close to hers.

“Yes, it is, especially now. Are you sure you don’t want to come to Houston with us?”

Maggie felt herself weakening. “I can’t. My ‘to do’ list is a mile long, at the very least. The inn has to be ready to open the first of next month, which isn’t that far off. I still have to finish ordering the brochures for area attractions from Texas Tourism, not to mention conducting some research into various advertising venues.”

“Wow, you speak Rick’s language. That’s incredible.”

Maggie had to look around Richard to see the woman who’d delivered that comment.

“This is our baby sister, Julia. We call her Jules, among other things.
