Holly
A lot, so be nice.
Briggs
So when are we meeting him?
Ryleigh
Those of us not going to college in North Carolina have already met him.
Briggs
What-the-fuck-ever.
Holly
He’s coming to the vineyard with me tonight.
Briggs
Nothing like trial by fire.
Holly
It’s just Christmas Eve.
Briggs
Has he met you?
Rainey
She’s been living with him for a month.
Hadley
And banging him for just as long.
Holly
It hasn’t been that long.
Briggs
I’m sorry I asked.
“Happy birthday, vixen.” Camden walks up behind me and brushes his lips over my ear as his arms wrap around my waist. “What has you smiling so big?”
“Thank you,” I tell him as I fix the red-velvet bow on the last present I had to wrap and look up over my shoulder at the sexy man behind me. “Why wouldn’t I be smiling? It’s Christmas Eve.”
When he arches a brow, I smile bigger. “Fine. My little brother’s home, and he’s an idiot.”
“That’s more like it.”
He’s not wrong. “You sure you’re okay doing Christmas Eve with my family tonight? I don’t want to mess anything up for you.”
“Holly, you’re the reason Sophie will ever be able to look back at pictures of her first Christmas and see anything fun. Nothing was going to stop us from spending tonight with you.”
