about Mom?” I asked, changing the subject. Anything to distract myself from how much I wanted to kiss those lips right now. Would she kiss me back? Would I see desire in those eyes? My gaze ran over her low-cut green top, and those tight sexy jeans. What did that body look like underneath those clothes? Was it as sexy as I imagined it to be?
    Coop , get a grip . It’s so not going to happen.
    “Yeah, she did. I’m sorry to hear that.” Mia’s voice jolted me out of my own head. “Alzheimer’s is a horrible disease. And to have the onset so young is even more tragic. How is she? Nic mentioned you got her into a trial? That’s good,” she said, impressed. “Those things usually aren’t cheap,” she added, raising an eyebrow. “Or easy to get into.”
    “It’s not cheap, but how can you put a price on quality of life?” I shrugged. I’d fought hard to get her into that trial.
    Mia smiled. “See, that’s why you’re a good guy. You take care of your family, no matter what.”
    I shrugged, not seeing the big deal. Anyone in my position would do the same. It was no different from donating a kidney if you were a match. If the trial got Mom a few more years without any further regression, then even for all the money in the world, it would be worth it.
    “And on that note, I think it’s bedtime for me too,” I said, finishing the last of my drink. I was tired as hell, and if we stayed up any longer I couldn’t guarantee I wouldn’t make a move on her.
    “It’s great to see you again, Liam,” she said softly, tilting her head to the side as she smiled at me.
    “Coop. Everyone calls me Coop.”
    “Okay.” She smiled, biting her lip. “’Night, Coop.”

Chapter Seven
    “Uncle Coop!”
    I mumbled something incoherent and rolled over.
    “Uncle Coop!”
    This time I opened my eyes, and slowly the two blurred faces inches from mine came into focus.
    “What time is it?” I muttered.
    “We’re going out and Mommy said you have to get up,” announced Tully excitedly as she bounced up and down.
    Typical. Trust Nic to send in the heavy forces to get me out of bed. “Get up!” Marlie cheered, bouncing on the bed beside me.
    “Fine,” I growled, shifting the covers and hoisting my legs over the edge of the bed. “I’m up.” They both cheered and sprinted from the room.
    While rubbing my eyes, I reached for my phone, sure it was some ridiculous hour like six in the morning. Eleven a.m. blared back at me. Okay, so I wasn’t a morning person. Sue me.
    I dug my work phone out of my bag and I clicked on my message icon, noticing there was a new one from Bethany.
    I’m glad you don’t go away often, Coop. I’ve had to resort to doing naughty things to myself.
    I chuckled, and replied.
    Well now I’m intrigued. Pic?
    A few moments later, my phone buzzed again. I picked it up, and clicked on the image file she had sent me. Taken from the neck down, she was completely naked, her legs spread with an impressively sized vibrator teasing her pussy.
    Well now I’m definitely looking forward to Tuesday. Excuse me while I go jack off…
    I hit delete. I could only imagine the explaining I would have to do if this fell into the wrong hands. Standing up and dressed in only my boxers, I made my way down to the bathroom. I pushed open the door to find Mia standing there.
    “Shit, sorry, I should’ve knocked,” I apologized. At least she was dressed, though the thought of walking in on her half-naked made my cock twitch.
    “No, it’s my fault. I should’ve locked the door.” She smiled at me, her eyes darting down to my bare chest, then down to my… .oh , fuck. I had a morning hard-on. He eyes grew wide as she quickly glanced away, but not before I saw the smile on her face.
    I stood there waiting, my arms crossed over my chest. “If you’re finished,” I said, amused. I laughed as she went bright red.
    “Yeah, all yours,” she mumbled, racing out of the bathroom.
    Shutting the door after her, I made
