I traveled a bit as a child, but usually in the company of a nanny and never in first class. That was reserved for my father—if he flew commercial. In recent years, that’s rarer for the man who his enemies and friends alike call the Ice King. Hungry for wealth and success, he’s grown richer and richer. Apparently, Todd wants a few chips off that block and will do anything, including marry me, to get it.

All I have to offer is cookie dough, folks, so unless you want a scoop, move right along!

During our short time together, the only trips Todd and I took were by car and never fun—it was all hoity-toity sites and events for business deals. If the hosts saw me in my most recent outfits, I would’ve been denied entry. Then again, I could’ve explored someplace off the beaten path, which, let’s face it, is more my speed.

My father once said he and my mother were opposites. He also commented that I’m a lot like her. I take that to mean I get my carefree, winsome personality from Mrs. Ice King, aka the hockey fan sweetheart, who swept my father off his feet—supposedly, she scored a goal on him during a charity event and the rest was history.

Seated beside Grey in the spacious leather seat with ample foot room, and the VIP service with warm towels to freshen up, drinks, and snacks makes me understand the lure. It’s a far cry from my last flight, wedged between the window and the Manimal.

Still, I can’t help but feel slightly guilty. “I could’ve just sat back there with the rest of the villagers,” I say, thumbing over my shoulder.

Grey pockets his phone and stretches out his legs. “If you haven’t noticed, I won’t exactly fit comfortably back there.”

“No, I meant me. I could sit in economy to save money.” Because I’m all about the budget these days and Cate purchased regular tickets for all of us coaches. Grey got me the upgrade.

He blinks slowly at me as though I don’t understand something obvious. “Life is short. Enjoy comfort when you can.”

“Wise words coming from someone who takes his life entirely too seriously.”

“You do realize you’re talking to one-quarter of the #BruiserButt scandal.”

My eyes bulge. “So you’re admitting that you have a playful side?”

A lopsided grin traces its way across Grey’s lips. “I’m not denying it.”

“Prove it. Dixie Davis, the country star, is seated two seats ahead. Go ask her about her dogs.”

“What if she doesn’t have dogs?”

“Trust me. She does.”

“Why would I want to know about her dogs?”

“Ask her and you’ll find out. Maybe even make a new friend.”

“Maybe I don’t want a new friend.”

“That’s a problem.”

“What if she asks me about my #BruiserButt?”

A belly laugh grows inside. I try to restrain it, but there’s no stopping the tsunami of laughter that pours out of me.

A few people turn their heads as I shake in my seat, trying to laugh as quietly as I can.

“If I go ask Dixie Davis about her dogs, will you stop laughing?”

“Can’t make any promises.
