impossible to avoid it.
    After the club fire in New York, I needed a breather. The guys agreed, and we spoke to our manager to let him know that we were taking a break early. All of this had happened so fast, I felt like my body was in constant forward motion, and my brain was tripping on its feet to keep up.
    The cute security guard standing near the baggage claim kept gazing at me. I wondered for a moment if he recognized me, but I quickly pushed the idea away. We were country, but I doubted our music reached this far just yet.
    I blushed when he started to walk in my direction. I tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ear and bent down to pick up my luggage.
    “Need some help, ladies?” He asked when he reached me.
    Ladies?
    I turned to see where he was looking.
    “Riley!” I shrieked and lunged into her outstretched arms.
    “Hey, girl! I missed you!”
    I missed her too. I let her go and turned to face the security guard. Now he was the one blushing.
    “I think we got this, handsome,” Riley said sweetly while taking my suitcase and pulling out the handle to tow it behind her.
    “Have a nice day, ladies,” he nodded his head and turned
    I smiled. I love country boys.
    I was staggered when I saw Riley pop the trunk of the Charger. “Is that yours?” I asked her, grinning like a fool.
    “Sure is, baby! Pretty hot, huh?”
    “Hot doesn’t even cover it. How does Alex let you leave the house in this thing?”
    “It takes a lot of groveling…on my knees…if you know what I mean.”
    I knew what she meant. Riley loved details, she didn’t have to spell it out for me. “You’re bad.”
    “I’m awful.” Riley winked and we climbed into her sexy car.
    “When did you get this?”
    “Last year. I wanted something of my own, plus, it was easier since Alex needed the truck sometimes.”
    I frowned and looked out the window. I knew what truck she was talking about. Jeremiah’s truck. I let my mind wander slightly, thinking about him. I didn’t tell anyone that we hooked up, and I wondered if he had. Jeremiah was a playful and simply gorgeous man, but he was also a gentleman so I knew our secret was probably safe.
    I remember standing on that stage in the karaoke bar, singing with him. His eyes met mine, and they were alight and so young. I thought I fell hard at that moment, but I knew I couldn’t make a life for myself in Wyoming.
    Plus, I had Joel…my on-and-off boyfriend. He had been my only boyfriend, and I never thought I would cheat on him. Until, of course, I was serenaded by a charming country boy.
    Jeremiah and I slept together after Addison’s wedding. He wanted me to stay, and I almost considered it. But, my life was in Maine, and I was (at the time) this close to getting signed with my record label .A secret I kept from everyone then.
    “…so it’ll just take a few minutes, hopefully. I totally forgot about it when you called last night,” Riley said, snapping me from my reminiscing.
    “Sorry, what?” I asked, smiling over at her.
    “I can drop you off at Addy’s, or you can come with me. I have to meet my boss for a sec at our new property. Then I’m all yours, I promise.”
    “I’ll go with, I don’t mind.”
    “I’ll warn you now…he’s a fucking vision.”
    I raise an eyebrow and grin. “Oh, really?”
    “Yes, really. Like, a panty-dropping type of vision.”
    Oh .
    “Did you?” I ask, elbowing her.
    “No! I’m not crazy!” She acted wounded, but smirked. “But, I’ll be honest, it’s been hard. He’s a pursuer…and a panther in bed. I heard it first hand, Leah. But, I love Alex, and I’m not making another Dane Disaster.”
    “Heard from him lately?” I ask, changing the subject.
    “Dane? No.”
    “That’s good.”
    “Yeah, it is. Anyway, we’re here!”
    Riley pulls into a large and empty lot. By empty, I mean no building. There are trucks with logos splashed on the sides, a huge BMW, and about ten men walking around.
    “There she is!” A deep and
