Max smoothed his hands over his hair, squeezing out the last of the water. Turning off the shower, he stepped out and grabbed a towel from the rack.

Bree was irked with him. Nothing new there. Although, looking back, he had to admit he’d been a bit rough around the edges when she first met him. Between Jo’s quitting him, his father’s death, and the ranch’s problems, he’d been on a six-month streak of foul mood. He now regretted the bad impression he’d made. He’d been touched by her misguided worry this afternoon. And then there was that smoking kiss in the barn.

So what’re you gonna do about it?

If she were a country girl, he’d know what to do. He’d take her to the Double Z for a beer and some slow country songs to snuggle up and dance to. But Bree wasn’t a country girl. He remembered her, perfectly coiffed, discussing wine with Wyatt at dinner while Max sat there like a clueless hick.

He pulled on his jeans and jerked open the door. “Wyatt!” He padded down the hall in his bare feet. “Where the heck are you?”

Wyatt’s bedroom door opened and he stuck his head out. “Is the house on fire?”

“No. I need your help.”

Wyatt stepped aside and waved him into the room that Max hadn’t been in since his brother arrived. A huge computer monitor with two towers on either side took up most of the desk space, wires snaking everywhere. Max noticed a framed photo centered on the nightstand. Wyatt grinned into the camera, his arm around a shorter brown-skinned man. Max’s face heated, and he averted his eyes, feeling like he’d just seen his brother naked.

“What wouldn’t wait until you fastened your jeans, Max?”

He looked down. “Oh.” He buttoned his Wranglers. “I need the name of a good wine.”

Wyatt looked over his reading glasses. “That’s what you’re in an all-fired hurry about?”

“I want to make up to Bree for scaring her this afternoon. I know she likes wine, and I thought I’d take her a bottle.”

“Let me get this straight. You’re asking me for dating advice?”

Max felt the tips of his ears heat. “You’re right. Bad idea.”

Wyatt grabbed his arm as he tried to brush by. “Hold on, now. What did you have in mind?”

Max looked at his still wet feet. “I don’t know. I thought I’d buy a bottle and give it to her.”

“Oh, that’s smooth, Max.” Wyatt rolled his eyes. “Sit down. This may take a while.”
