biting her lip to keep her reaction to
herself, but she could feel her cheeks warming up.
    “Don’t let her fool you,” Erin teased, “she likes
the adrenaline rush just as much as the rest of you.”
    Molly just shrugged off the remark. But as she
glanced in Brody’s direction, she knew he understood. They had
always been able to read each other perfectly.
    George stood and stretched. “Well, I better get back
and check the track and make sure things are moving along. You boys
better play nice, she could out ride any of you.”
    Molly stood to hug George. “It’s so good to see you
again. And you better tell Eileen hi and give her my love.”
    “Well, tell her yourself, she’s coming in Saturday
to see you.”
    “She is?”
    “Are you kidding? Sweetheart, she wouldn’t miss it
for the world!”
    Brody grinned. “Told you I had a surprise for you if
you were a good girl.”
    “Bite me!”
    “Brody.” George shook his head at Brody while Molly
was still tucked under his arm. “She may be a good foot shorter
than you and probably doesn’t weigh a hundred pounds soaking wet,
but son, if you remember right, I’ve seen you two go toe-to-toe
before on more than one occasion, and well, it’s a pretty even
match. You two couldn’t act more like brother and sister if you
were actually blood related.”
    “ Are you kidding?” Brody laughed
and stood to shake George’s hand. “She’s the most stubborn,
bull-headed brat around.”
    “Me? Seriously?” She gave him an eye roll. “Well you
are an over-protective control freak just…like…James.” Molly
unleashed a big, satisfied smile, quite proud of her retort. She
kept that one in her back pocket for when he deserved it most. She
knew how much he hated it when she compared him to his father.
    “ Brody,” George attempted his
warning again, “I’m leaving and I think you’re gonna get your ass
kicked.”
    “Na, I wouldn’t want to embarrass him in front of
all these guys.” Molly laughed, then laughed even harder at Brody’s
exaggerated sigh of disbelief.
    “All right then, if it’s safe, I’m walking away.”
George looked around at the men watching her, “I mean it boys. Be
good. I’ve seen you all ride, and I’ve seen her. I’d hate to have
to put you in your place by making her race against you. She’d whip
every one of your asses.” George hugged Molly one last time and
patted her cheek. “Oh…it’s so good to see you sweetheart.”
    “You too, George.” Molly sat back down, only to
realize that Carter had moved his arm to the back of her chair. The
breath she sucked in was automatic. She snuck a look his direction
to see if he heard it, praying he hadn’t.
    “ So, you’re a bad-ass, Molly.” Eli
put his arm out. “Will you marry me?”
    Molly’s head dropped. “I’m not a bad-ass, James had
his reasons.”
    “Besides, Eli—” Jesse nudged him. “—I think you’re a
little late.” Jesse cleared his throat and nodded toward Carter and
Molly. Everyone looked their direction. Carter’s knee was still
touching her thigh, but the hand that was on the back of her chair
was now playing in her hair. Molly blushed as she continued to look
down, avoiding their questioning eyes.
    She was so out of her element.
    She bit her lip as she gazed up at Carter. He
squeezed the back of her neck lightly and left his hand tucked in
under her hair. She snuck another look up at him, and for a second
time he caught her, making her blush all over again.
    “Damn it, Sterling.” Eli smacked him as he got up to
get another beer. “I find the girl of my dreams and you swoop
in.”
    “Just grab me a beer, Hunter. You want one?” Carter
asked her.
    “Na. Thanks, though. I’ve still got to run.”
    “Besides, she can’t handle her liquor. Can you,
sis?”
    If at all possible, Molly’s cheeks reddened even
more. She bit her cheek to keep herself from embarrassing herself
further with a nasty retort, and from laughing. Instead she
