Maddison held her tongue between her teeth, not wanting to answer but knowing she had to. “Jack and I were best friends and for the record I never fell in love with him.”
Her sister grinned and started the car. Maddison slouched down in her seat and tried to stop thinking about Jack.
Because maybe her sister was right. Maybe she had fallen in love with him, or thought she had. She’d been a teenager, off to boarding school and confused about how she felt for the boy she’d known all her life. But that was then. They were grown-ups now.

Maddison was all grown up. There was more than a hint of the girl he used to know and love, a flicker in her eyes, the way she watched him like whatever he was saying was the most important thing in the world. But to look at? She was nothing like that girl any more. This Maddison was tall and slender, with curves that he’d sure as hell never noticed back then. Her hair was lighter, her lipstick brighter, and she was beautiful.
If there was one woman he’d marry, if he actually ever went through with satisfying the clause instead of wasting money on having the will overturned, hands down he’d have to talk to Maddison. Not just because she was the only woman he’d ever trust wholeheartedly, but because she was the only girl his father would blatantly disapprove of.

Because no matter how much he wanted to pretend his father’s will wasn’t getting under his skin, he couldn’t. It was giving him a feeling that he didn’t belong here, and he needed to figure something out to forget that his old man had ever existed. And fast.
