Sara’s changed her number, but mine is the same as it’s always been. I wish she’d have thought to use it and warn me. My brand-new tasting room is the last place I want to deal with the shock of seeing her again. Especially tonight with all my family around. I would have prepared for this. I would have told her not to come here, where there are too many people who think they need to protect me.

One second, I’m staring at Sara, trying to decide how to respond to her frank invitation that we reconnect, and the next, Molly is wrapping an arm around my waist and grinning up at me like we’re lovers. “Hey, you. Everything okay?”

Instinct alone has my arm snaking around her waist in return, but what the hell? “Everything’s fine.” With the exception of last night’s massage in my bed, Molly doesn’t stand this close to me or touch me beyond the occasional brush of a hand—not since that one night. But right now, she’s pressing against me like . . .

I catch sight of Shay standing at the edge of the crowd, a satisfied smirk on her face, and I realize exactly what Molly is doing.

God save me from meddling sisters.

Sara’s gaze shifts between me and Molly and back, her face growing paler with each pass. “Oh. Are you two . . . ?”

I let the question hang there for a beat too long. Did she think I’d wait for her? Ten years and not a fucking word, and she’s shocked to see another woman at my side?

The fact that I nearly did wait ten years only pisses me off more, but Molly either doesn’t notice the tension in my body or she ignores it. She leans into me, so close I can smell her strawberry shampoo and feel her every curve. “I’m Molly,” she says, extending a hand to Sara. “I’m sorry. I don’t think we’ve met?”

Sara’s gaze flicks between us again. “I’m . . . Sara?” The sight of Molly has her off balance. I flash a glare to Shay before stepping away from Molly. Shay might have led her to believe this would help, but I’m not interested in playing games.

Molly tugs her bottom lip between her teeth and looks up at me suggestively as she nestles closer into my side. It’s sexy, and the look combined with the feel of her pressed against me might turn me on if it weren’t so damn calculated. And if my ex wasn’t standing in front of me looking for all the world like she wants another chance. “Is this the ex-girlfriend you told me about?” Molly asks. “The masseuse?”

There’s not a doubt in my mind that Molly used that word deliberately.

The jab works, and Sara winces but tries to smile at me when she says, “Just let me know if we can talk.” She turns and rushes out the door.

I watch her climb into a sedan in the parking lot and have no fucking idea how I’m supposed to feel.
