    Layla watched as her children played in a now-mated, twenty-four-year-old Tracy’s yard. Sid and her brothers and brothers-in-law ran around with the kids and a wildly barking three-legged dog.
    “Isn’t it funny how this fate thing works?” Layla murmured.
    “Yeah. We all lucked out in a big way, dontcha think?” Lex’s mate Nina watched him hungrily. Layla was sure she wore the same look whenever she watched Sid. The desire for him hadn’t waned one bit in ten years.

    Layla threw her head back and laughed. Sid heard it and turned. Heat flared between them as their gazes locked. Thank goodness all parts of her were now on the same page. She’d want Sid Rosario until the day she ceased to draw breath .
