Chapter Seven

Jade turned her car into her parents’ circular drive and parked behind Grey and Mariah’s SUV. She killed the engine, but made no move to exit. She stared out the windshield at the big house she’d been raised in, a house where she and her sister had shared so many hopes and dreams for their future.

At least her sister’s dreams of having a husband and family had come true. Hers had been shattered three years ago. She shuddered to think where she’d be now if she hadn’t come to her senses and ended her relationship with Adam. If she hadn’t had the support of her family who’d helped her through the most devastating period in her life.

“Are you sure you’re okay with me being here today?”

Jade blinked away her thoughts and glanced toward the passenger side of the car, where Kyle had folded his large frame into the compact seat of her sports car. Despite the cramped quarters, he hadn’t once complained that he couldn’t stretch out his long legs, or that the top of his head nearly hit the ceiling of the car.

Although he’d provided her an out, she’d decided there was absolutely nothing wrong with bringing a male friend to her birthday barbecue. Besides, she wanted him there. It was her parents’ problem if they made more of her relationship with Kyle than there actually was.

She pulled her key from the ignition, her mouth lifting in a wry smile. “How can you expect me to be sure of anything? I’m thirty years old today.”

Reaching across the console, he sifted his fingers through her short hair, his gaze full of the teasing charm she was coming to adore. “If it makes you feel any better, you don’t look a day over twenty-one.”

She couldn’t contain her light laughter, nor could she help the special way he made her feel, all from a touch and a few words. “You’re a wonderful liar, but it does make me feel better. I hope you’re still around when I hit forty.”

He lifted a brow. “Do you think I plan on going somewhere?”

His question didn’t really require an answer, because she knew what he meant. And as much as Kyle being a permanent part of her life was beginning to appeal to her, she knew their versions of “permanent” differed vastly. For him, it meant that they’d be friends months and years from now, long after their affair ended, but they’d each have their own separate lives that didn’t include each other on a regular basis. No commitment, no ties, no obligation to the other.

Her chest tightened, right in the vicinity of her heart. Oh, Lord, when had all those emotional connections started to matter? And when had having an affair with Kyle begun to have a deeper meaning than an outlet for her attraction to the man? They hadn’t even slept together, and already she was falling deeper than was wise.

“Jade!”

Welcoming the diversion from her wayward thoughts, Jade glanced to the front of the house.
