“Wow, J. Coop. You look dumbstruck.”

Phillip’s words brought Jason’s head up. He met his cousin’s gaze then nodded. “Dumbstruck is a good word. Yeah, you could say that.” He’d just come back to the house from a short run out to the grocery store. He’d planned a short trip out for steak then would get busy on getting to work on his client files.

Their home office was the best-outfitted home office they’d ever had. And every single item here, except their laptops, had come from the “family warehouse.” That had been another, as Phillip put it, “dumbstruck” moment.

“I ran into a couple of people at the store. I think you’ve met them. Jordan and Peter?”

“I have. They’re married to Tracy of the amazing cream puffs, aren’t they?” Phillip sat back in his chair, giving Jason his complete attention.

“They are indeed.” Jason didn’t know if he could put into words the emotions that were tumbling through him. “I had been under the impression that their last name was Kendall.”

Phillip tilted his head. “It isn’t?”

“No, they decided to have their names changed for two reasons. First, because each of the men wanted to carry the other’s name, because they are married to each other, as well as to Tracy. And also so that they reflected both men’s paternity for their children. They’re, all three of them, the Alvarez-Kendalls.”

“Alvarez.” By the expression on his cousin’s face, Jason knew he recognized the name and was trying to place it.

Phillip shook his head. “Who did we used to know of by that name?”

“Julián Alvarez. Mega venture capitalist who left New York just as we were beginning to make some headway in our own business.”

“Now I remember! The man who walked away from it all at the top of his game. Is he related to Peter?”

“Julián is Peter’s brother. And apparently, he’s living a couple of hours from here, at the edge of a city called Divine. He owns a ranch, with his best friend, Chris, and their wife, Gwen, whom Julián met when he worked the rodeo circuit.”

Jason was still blown away that the man he’d once seen give a seminar wearing a three-piece Armani suit had worked the rodeo circuit.

“Well, that’s a hell of a coincidence, isn’t it?” Phillip asked.

“Oh, it is. Then I ran into Craig Jessop, and we chatted for a moment. Do you recall that movie we saw a couple of years back? Finesse?”

Phillip’s face split into a huge grin. “It’s still one of my favorites. It won a couple of Oscars, I think.”

Jason folded his arms in front of his chest. “It did. And one of them was for the screenwriters. A set of triplets. I think the tabloids used to refer to them as the three Valentinos. Their names are Paul, Wes, and Lucas Jessop.”

“Jessop? As in Lusty, Texas, Jessops?”

“As in the sons of Craig and Jackson and Anna Jessop, yes.” Jason had been shocked when Craig had said he was getting extra steak because the boys and their wife were flying in from L.
