“Careful. We might take you up on it.”
Something on the other side of the room catches her eye, and she looks so interested in whatever it is that I have to see what’s up.
And when I do, the funniest thing happens.
I suddenly feel the urge to tear a girl’s hair out.
Because she’s hanging all over Matt like a cheap suit.
It’s none of my business, and I know it. He’d laugh himself sick if I went over there and so much as tried to break in on their conversation.
So, where’s this impulse coming from? Why are my teeth grinding together hard enough that I’m afraid they might crack?
“You know what?” Kylie leans in a little, speaking straight into my ear. “You were sweet enough to give me some good advice. I’m glad I have the chance now to repay you for that.”
“Repay me?” I’d look at her, but I can’t take my eyes off the redhead who must’ve mistaken Matt for a tree since she’s trying to climb him.
“I’m only going to say this once, and then we’re going to go over and have fun with my sister since this is her night.” Kylie points to Matt. “You need to lock that down, girl. Because when I walked in here and saw the two of you together, I would’ve sworn on a stack of Bibles that you were a couple. And it made all the sense in the world. You looked natural together.”
“He’s like a brother to me.”
“No. Brandon is a brother to me. Matt is not a brother to you, no matter how much you might want him to be.” Then, she nudges me. “If you really do want him to be, which I doubt.”
The girl has no idea what she’s talking about. Even a genius gets it wrong sometimes, I guess.
“Come on.” I link arms with her, deliberately turning my back on Matt and the redhead he might need to have surgically removed by the end of the night if she gets any closer to him. “Let’s go celebrate with our favorite lawyer. She’s the reason we’re here after all.”

Excerpt from Kitty Valentine Dates a Cowboy.
CHAPTER ONE
“You need time off,” my editor scolds.
“Are you kidding me, Maggie? I just returned from the islands.”
“Kitty, I saw your posts, and I know it wasn’t all fun and games. You haven’t been the same since you got back. Do you realize you gave the heroine’s best friend three different names over the course of this book?”
