Somehow the agreement I’d finally given for an unspecified length of time with her two beaus had morphed into a nine-day stretch split between the t...o other men in her life. A four-day trip to L.A. with Malcolm, a mini-vacation to meet his extended family and for Jill to see our new granddaughter, followed by a return to Miami and the final five days with Callan.I must have been mad to agree to this – but then again, I’d done more than my fair share of mad things these last eighteen months..

Not that she had made any promises, but she had grown to Luke and he would miss the easy, low-maintenance fuck buddy relationship.°°°"Why so mopey?"
