Two Times the Trouble (Double the Rom-Com #1)

by Stephanie Brother

“Several inches?” Ana asks with a purr. “Just how many inches is he packing?” “Oh my god, Ana. You need to lay off the smut you’re reading!” “You’ll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands. Now, you can’t tell me his tight yoga pants haven’t given you a good measure of the man’s bulge.”

If someone who looks like Ryan Reynolds is flirting with you, why aren’t you taking off your panties and scribbling your phone number on the crotch?”

I’d have given Callie a goodnight kiss if Max wasn’t here. A real kiss, not one being cheerleaded by a horny senior citizen.

“John Hargrove doesn’t just own a shipping company. He’s a drug trafficker, and we caught him in the act tonight.” “We? Who exactly are you?” “Miles and I are special agents for the State Bureau of Investigation.”

I need him to go, because tears are threatening. “How could you do this to me? You used me!” “Callie, we didn’t want to hurt you.”

Miles shifts forward in his chair. “Callie, when we made plans to come to the wedding with you, we didn’t know we were going to fall in love with you.”

Suddenly, I’m more exhausted than I’ve ever been in my life. “It’s time for you to go.” To my relief, they don’t protest. As they get up and start toward the door, I have one more question for them. “Are you actually new residents in town, or was that a lie, too?” “We were here on assignment,” Max says.

“It’s true that we lied to you, but only about the case. We never lied about our feelings for you. Our connection was real.”

“I told you all about what my ex did to me, how he betrayed me, and how much he hurt me, and you didn’t think I’d get hurt by you sleeping with me, when I didn’t even know who you were?”

Something as right as the love we share was bound to find a way.
