A half hour later, I was glad that Jackson had woken me—well, Jackson and the crashing noise. The house was filled with people, including the triplets, of course, but also a crew that was working on the closets and also a contractor and his team that was going to help build the loft.

Instead of being the only woman among three men, I was the only woman among nearly a dozen, so I was glad I’d had time to freshen up and get dressed.

I found a shirtless Hunter in the living room, but there was no chance to check if his eyes really did have more gold in them than the others because he was doing pull-ups. The muscles in his chest rippled as he raised his chin up to the rafter above him, lowered himself, and did it again.

Wow. He was really fit. He caught me watching and shot me a wink. That brought back some of the heat I’d felt during my dream—and last night when I’d been with him.

I hadn’t expected the night to go like that at all. I thought we’d do a boring kind of couples’ dance with him guiding me around as we swayed back and forth. But there was nothing boring with the way Hunter danced—and it still astonished me that I’d been able to keep up with him.

Then there were other surprises, too. Like the way he put his hand on the small of my back as we walked through the hotel hallways. Then there was the way he’d teased me about my discomfort with swearing. I was used to being thought of as awkward, a wallflower, and perhaps something of a prude. But Hunter hadn’t been like that. He’d teased, yes, but it had seemed like he was genuinely intrigued by me. As if he saw me as a challenge instead of just a shy young woman.

And wow, that kiss. It had somehow melted all my concerns away. These days, I spent a great deal of time worrying about my car. Worrying about how poorly my job search was going. Second-guessing myself for my relationship with Jeff. But when Hunter kissed me, all those thoughts faded away. It was like he’d made me stop thinking and just feel.

I was grateful for that.

Continuing on, I found Reid in the kitchen. Though the cabinets had been torn out, he’d apparently held back two cupboards. A length of wood had been placed on top of them, so he had a make-shift desk. I wondered if I could get a similar setup when I did my video editing later. I didn’t want to always have to do that at the rusty table out back. Squinting intently at a screen in bright sunlight sometimes gave me a headache.

“Morning,” Reid said. I knew it was him by process of elimination, plus, as Jackson had pointed out, Reid was wearing the most clothes. “There’s breakfast.” He jerked his head toward a stool in the corner upon which a white box was balanced.
