when she did. Her brain must be fried. She must be more tired than she realized.
    Katlynn wondered if their big brother Jarred would be as easy to get to know and like as his brothers. However, her liking him wasn’t really the issue. They hadn’t actually said it, but she knew it was very important to both Jeremiah and Justin that Jarred like her. If not, she thought unhappily, she might find herself alone again. She didn’t want to think about that as even a remote possibility. She’d just have to do whatever it took to make sure he did like her.

Chapter Seven

    After Kat left, Jeremiah and Justin didn’t go to bed right away. They were both keyed up from their evening with the woman they both agreed they wanted and needed in their bed and their life. But they had also agreed that they would wait for Jarred before they opened up to her about their desire for more than just friendship. It would force them to be patient and not move too quickly. Jeremiah wasn’t used to not having a woman, and with Kat being so close he knew the temptation would be great. Justin felt the same way but felt if they took her before she met Jarred, something would be missing and they would never be able to go back and make it right.
    “She’s not like other women. She’s special. I know I keep saying that, but I feel it in my bones. We can’t rush her. It’s gotta be right, and I know that with Jarred in the picture it will be.” The seriousness and sincerity in Justin’s tone was not lost on Jeremiah.
    “I know. It’s just going to be damn difficult that’s all. Not to worry, I gave my word and I meant it. I want what’s best for all of us, too, and God knows I don’t want to ruin it. She’s worth the wait. It’s just that I want her so badly.”
    Jeremiah knew he was falling in love with Kat. Justin had been right. She was like no one he had met before. She had a way about her that made him want to get to know every aspect of her, not just bed her. He wasn’t used to having a woman do that to him. In fact, until Kat, no one ever had before. It wasn’t that he didn’t like the women he had gone to bed with, but he had never been with a woman who took his breath away like Kat did. He had always enjoyed the freedom of not having emotional entanglements. All he had wanted was to have fun and that meant being free to do as he pleased.
    When he and Justin and then Jarred had started enjoying women together, he had embraced the sex without the hassle of awkward mornings. The women they took to their bed knew the score and wanted nothing more than to be gone when their time together had come to an end. It worked out well for all concerned.
    Except that one time with Jessica. She was a paralegal in his office who had led him to believe that her attitude about no-strings-attached sex was in line with his own. They had gone out for drinks after work one night and ended up in a hotel room. He hadn’t planned it, but she was more than willing, and she turned out to be a good lay. When she suggested drinks again, he said yes, but this time he called Justin to meet them at the hotel bar. Justin was more than happy to oblige.
    He could tell that Jessica liked Justin right away. She was more than just flirty, and that pleased Jeremiah. Finally when he’d had enough, he said to her, “So, Jessica, are you having a hard time choosing which of us you want tonight?”
    “Damn, you must be reading my mind.” She giggled, looking from one brother to the other. “What’s a girl gonna do?”
    “What if we tell you that you don’t have to choose.” Jeremiah smiled.
    “You mean like do you both at the same time?”
    “Exactly.”
    “I just keep liking you better and better all the time, Jeremiah, and now I get to show your brother how much I like him.”
    It didn’t take them long to pay the bar tab and get a room for the night. Jessica practically skipped to the elevator. Inside she kissed Justin while rubbing her ass up and down
