and smiled.
Tara Matthews was beautiful and had nearly blown Storm and his brothers away the first time they had seen her at
their sister Delaney’s apartment in Kentucky. And he might have even considered having a relationship with her, but
he’d soon discovered that Tara was a handful. He and his brothers had quickly concluded that the only man who could possibly handle her was their brother Thorn, so they had
deemed her Thorn’s challenge. Now, a little more than two years later, she was Thorn’s wife. But she still held a
special place in his heart as well as the hearts of his
brothers because in the end though Thorn may have
handled her, Tara had proved that she was capable of
handling Thorn, which wasn’t an easy task.
He met her gaze and saw concern in her eyes. “I was
worried about you,” she said softly. “When I passed through the dining room and saw you missing, your brothers said
you had needed fresh air. I didn’t know if you were coming down with something, especially when they’d said you’d
been playing badly tonight.”
Storm laughed, then gave her a playful grin. “Hell, they claim I play lousy even when I’m winning.”
Tara nodded smiling. “So, how was your trip to New Orleans?”
