Prologue

With a sigh, Luke leaned back in his chair and ran his hands through his hair He needed a haircut For weeks now, he felt as though he’d been running in circles with absolutely no relief projected anywhere in the near future, whichanother week before he could pencil in the ti that ned office, running through his inventory list, waiting patiently for Trent Ramsey to show up and shower hi out for the last couple of weeks Seemed like that’s what the man lived for these days

Between Trent and his desire to ensure that the Walker brothers didn’t show them up with their fancy new resort – his exact words – and the fact that Sierra had been having Braxton Hicks contractions for the better part of the last five weeks, Luke was da his mind Despite his minor blow up at the doctor, both she and Sierra had assured hiht

Every single , Luke woke up, practically wired for sound, unable to sit still as he waited for the other shoe to drop Although everyone seemed to think he wanted their praise for his new outlook on life, he was getting a little irritated by everyone’s concern Shit, it would be easier if he just went back to being the ornery asshole they expected him to be

Except he couldn’t Not anymore

Despite his frazzled nerves, Luke woke up everywith a s he sawhe saas Cole’s sexy smirk, and he’d be damned if he didn’t knohich one was better Nor was he sure why he forced hiet out of bed when he’d much rather spend the day there with theitated by the long days, he found it difficult to be in a bad mood Even Trent wasn’t able to leave a dark cloud in his day, although thepretty da his lih he deserved some credit After all, he hadn’t killed him yet

He was halfway down the stairs to the main floor before he realized he didn’t have his keys Or his wallet Shit Or his phone Wait Phone was on his ear

Haltingsteps, Luke abruptly turned, grabbing hold of the railing to keep fro back to his office, he snatched his keys and wallet off of his desk and headed the opposite direction once again

“Where are you?”

“Cole is taking h he could hear the hint of discoht want to hurry”

At least she didn’t have to question whether he was going to be there For the last week, he’d been going over the plan – which they both tried to tell him there wasn’t one Since he insisted on at least one of the with her until the baby was born, Luke felt a little better Notup” Luke was descending the steps two at a ti up a quick prayer that he didn’t break his neck, unable to focus on anything except the wo in his ear “How far apart are the contractions?” he asked
