The day of Dani’s shower arrived and I was up early which meant she was as well. My bestie was not a happy camper, but I could tell she was trying to be. This past week had been a busy one for me, considering I quit my job, only giving Doug a week’s notice (he pissed and moaned, asking me to give him a month, but I told him he was lucky to get a week). My final shift ended at two o’clock Saturday morning, so I was functioning on less than six hours of sleep... not fun, but not impossible for me.

“Danielle Carver, sit your butt down,” I ordered for the umpteenth time when she tried to help me.

“I was just—”

“I know what you were trying to do, but we’ve got it covered,” I argued, handing paper plates to Payton.

Payton was married to Hawk and she was helping with the shower, along with the rest of the “old ladies,” including Cassidy and Darien.

“Seriously Dani, sit down,” Cassidy ordered, guiding her to the sofa.

“If I’m sitting, you should too,” Dani told Cassidy.

“Nice try,” Cassidy said. “I’m only six months along, I’ve got a while to go, lady. Sit.”

“But you were shot.”

“Sit down!” Four female voices snapped.

Dani groaned and took her seat, rubbing her belly as she scowled at me.

I grinned and handed her a bottled water. “Hydrate.”

“I hate being idle.”

“Yep, I get it, honey, but enjoy it while you can,” Payton ordered. She would know. Hawk had Lily (who was eight) from a previous relationship, but they also had a baby who was about six months old. He was currently napping in Dani’s spare bedroom while Lily and Cassidy’s son, Maverick, were being watched by the men.

She sighed. “Okay, fine.”

Booker and Dani’s condo was in high-rise, doorman secured building with an incredible view of the water and it wasn’t far from mine... although, their view was way better. We’d set up a couple of long folding tables in front of the large picture windows that spanned his living room, covered them with table cloths and set out the food I’d had catered for the party. Since it was a little chilly, we had the fireplace going and Dani had the seat of honor next to it... not that she wanted to stay in it.

A feisty bellow sounded through the baby monitor and Payton shook her head. “This one-hour nap thing is getting old,” she said. “I thought babies slept for longer than this.”

“Mav did.” Cassidy giggled. “Hunter must be going through a growth spurt.”

“No kidding. He’s eating every two hours right now.” Payton laid her hands over her chest. “My boobs are killing me. I’ll be right back.” She headed toward the back of the condo to take care of her son and the rest of us got back to work.

A few hours later, after cake and presents, I was guiding a dozen women through games, but we were laughing hysterically and couldn’t seem to finish one without someone spilling
