The game had shown Knox another side of Amy Kingsley—a playful side. She was surprisingly fast on her feet, too, even stealing the ball away once and running around his brothers.

“Sign her up,” Frank said, watching her go.

Knox would like to do exactly that.

They’d washed up, and now sat at the dinner table. His mother had made more Texas Trash dip and loaded more chips into a bowl. In addition, his father had grilled burgers and his mother had cooked up some beef stew and pecan pie for dessert. Another of his favorites.

He was seated next to Amy since she was his girlfriend. Since they thought she was his girlfriend. He looked down at her and she smiled up at him. She sure felt like a girlfriend.

After his father said grace, the passing of the plates began. Knox paused with each one and held it out for Amy to take her food from before taking his own and passing it on.

His father said, “Did you see the article by your old girlfriend, Knox?”

“No. Where?”

“In the print edition, but also on the paper’s Facebook page. All about you being back here and Daniel going into treatment and you causing problems for him. There’s a photo of you two arguing outside the clinic doors.”

Knox shook his head. Darn Sylvia anyway.

“That’s not going to look good, son,” Ace said, disapproval showing on his face.

It didn’t matter to his father that Knox had given up his Italy trip to help his brother. All that mattered was the article that Sylvia had written. “Sylvia’s out to get me.”

“Of course, she is. So make sure you don’t have another argument with anyone.”

“Yes, sir.” Knox caught Amy’s glance. She was smirking at him. “What?”

“Do you make a habit of arguing with everyone?”

He frowned. “No, just pesky brothers and their therapists.”

She laughed, catching him by surprise. “Do you ever win any arguments?”

He couldn’t help but smile at her cheerful face. “Not usually.”

“I’m glad to hear that,” she said, and poked him in the ribs.

“Ouch,” he said. “That bony elbow hurt!”

She laughed. “You bad boys are all wimps.”

“Not all of us,” Frank chimed in. “Maybe you’re just with the wrong Reid brother.”

She put up her hand to point out something, he supposed, and Knox grabbed it. She looked at him in surprise, and then surprised him by threading her tiny fingers through his large ones.

She was just pretending, but his body didn’t know the difference. His heart rate picked up and warmth swirled through his chest.

He was used to football groupies who wanted to date and marry pro football players. Women who flung themselves at the players. But none of them had ever brought a reaction like this simple hand-holding with Amy Kingsley.
