grow into this remarkable young woman, the mother of our children, the woman who has matured and thrived. Now here you are, telling us you want us to step aside and see if she still has feelings for you?”
    “She does. Ask her.” Mitch looked damn confident.
    Brock stood. “You can’t see her. Not right now. She’s too vulnerable.”
    “Vulnerable?” Mitch copped a smile. “Come on now, Brock. Are we talking about the same woman here? Trixie, vulnerable?”
    “I said you can’t see her,” Brock deadpanned. “Let’s go, Rory. We’re done here.”
    Rory hesitated before meeting Brock at the door. Before they left the room, Mitch said, “You know, Rory, there’s something you should remember. The sentence I served was the punishment you would’ve received if I hadn’t taken the stand in your defense.”
    “What’s your point?” Brock asked, stepping in before Mitch barricaded Rory in a corner and he came out fighting.
    “No point, just stating a fact. Rory would’ve gone to prison for a crime he didn’t commit. I didn’t have to come forward. If you remember, he was willing to take the fall. Why, I’m not sure, but he was ready to do it. And if I hadn’t stepped up to the plate, he would’ve been the one locked up. Who knows, maybe Jordie Anne would be alive today and—”
    “Don’t you fucking put that on me!” Rory grabbed Mitch by the collar. “You don’t get to lay your guilt down at my feet and expect me to step over it every day of my existence.
    “You made the decision to end Stephen Pratchert’s life. You could’ve let the cops handle him but no, you refused to trust the legal system. You’re Mitch Colony. You’ve always gotten away with whatever you wanted to do. You’ve ignored laws and operated right below the radar. And now you want someone to blame because Daddy and Momma aren’t around to save you.”
    “Bastard,” Mitch grated out, shaking free of Rory’s grip. “I don’t want you to carry guilt.” He set his jaw. “Damn it, boys. I love her. I can’t get her out of my head.”
    “Well you should’ve thought of that before you chose Jordie Anne,” Brock pointed out. “Trixie is our wife, Mitch. If you think Rory and I won’t protect our home and our woman, you’re wrong.”
    “And if you believe I won’t find a way to see her, you’re sorely mistaken as well.”
    Brock sneered. “You’ll play hell getting to her.”

Chapter Three
     
    Brock came to a screeching halt in front of the house. They’d called Trixie when they’d reentered the vehicle and deliberately kept her on the phone until they arrived back at their farm.
    Rory hopped out of the truck with his phone still pinned to his ear. He nodded at Brock, who immediately took off again, heading for the Cartwells’ house.
    It was up to Rory to keep Trixie preoccupied until he returned. He didn’t need to guess how he’d manage to keep their sexy vixen busy.
    A few minutes later, Brock arrived at his destination. He barreled out of the vehicle and pounced up the front steps. Kane and Braden met him on the porch before he knocked.
    “What the hell’s wrong?” Kane asked, affixing his belt.
    “I need to talk to you,” Brock replied. “It’s important. Where’s Peyton?”
    “She’s in bed. Normal folks—at least those without a full nest—go to bed before ten so they can have a good time before they drift off to sleep.”
    Brock was taken aback by Kane’s directness. “I guess I should’ve called first.”
    “You probably shouldn’t have ripped down the driveway at eighty miles an hour,” Braden said. “What’s wrong, Brock?”
    “I need your help.”
    “Oh God,” Kane grumbled, dragging his hand down his face. “What has she done this time?”
    “Stop.” Braden shot Kane a warning glare. “We were just talking about Trixie today. She’s turned into a responsible young woman and we’re all proud of her. Don’t jump to conclusions now.”
    Kane ignored Braden. “What the
