Free Our New Love by Melissa Foster Page B

and turned back to Savannah. “So? Spa in an hour?”
    “I would love to, but I can’t. Remember? Jack and I are going up to the cabin for the week. One last hurrah before the baby comes.”
    “I cannot wait to meet that baby.” Catherine came to her side and patted her belly. “I loved being pregnant so much.”
    “So do we,” Lacy and Jade said in unison.
    “But I need the spa today.” Lacy pushed at her blond spiral curls, which had gotten even thicker with her pregnancy. “My feet are killing me.”
    “I would rather have Rexy massage my feet than someone I don’t know,” Jade said.
    Savannah rolled her eyes, knowing the truth behind her statement—even though Jade probably would rather have Rex massage her than anyone else. “That’s because my brother is too jealous to let any other man touch you.”
    “I happen to like Rexy’s possessive side.” Jade lifted her chin and wiggled her shoulders, as if she were saying, So there! Jade was the perfect match for her überalpha brother. They both laughed because it was true. Jack had a possessive side, too, and Savannah loved it as much as Jade loved Rex’s.
    “I can’t believe your doctor allowed all this flying so late in your pregnancy,” Max said.
    “He seemed okay with it. He said the baby will probably be late anyway, since it’s my first. Besides, Jack can fly us back lickety-split if I need him to.” Jack was an excellent pilot, and Savannah trusted him one hundred percent. He’d never let anything happen to her or their unborn child.
    “Speaking of Jack.” Joanie’s eyes lifted over Savannah’s shoulder. “I couldn’t be happier to see my son so in love, and that’s a man in love if I ever saw one.”
    Savannah turned to see Jack heading in her direction, a white rose from one of the bouquets in his hand, a crooked grin on his handsome face. She hoped she was the only one who recognized the dark seduction in his eyes. Even pregnant, they couldn’t get enough of each other. They made love nearly every day, and Jack spoiled her rotten afterward with warm showers, where he took his time, washing and loving her in equal measure, and they slept so close together that she thought he’d climb inside her with the baby if he could. There was no doubt she was one hell of a lucky woman.
    Jack’s eyes narrowed at his younger sister as he slipped one arm around Savannah’s waist and held on tight. He pressed his lips to her cheek in a sweet kiss. “Are these ladies trying to steal you away from me?”
    “They’re going to the spa.” Savannah turned toward him and touched his cheek. Even though he’d shaved for the wedding, sexy whiskers were already peppering his chiseled cheeks.
    “If you want to go, angel, we can leave tomorrow for the cabin,” he offered.
    There was a rise of encouragement from the girls, but Savannah was tired. She’d been on her feet all day, and nothing sounded better than lying in Jack’s arms before a roaring fire in their cabin, with no worries and no one to entertain or listen to but each other.
    “Thanks, but I’ve been really looking forward to this.”
    “Party pooper,” Siena teased as her burly firefighter husband, Cash, wrapped his strong arms around her from behind.
    “Who’s pooping on my girl’s party?” Cash lifted his eyes to the girls.
    “Savannah and Jack are leaving,” Siena answered with a frown.
    “I thought the guys were going out tonight?” Cash rose to his full height and tugged Siena in closer, whispering, “Does this mean we can head upstairs?”
    Savannah knew that whisper was meant just for Siena to hear, and when Jack squeezed her side, she realized he’d heard it, too. She touched Jack’s cheeks again to get his attention.
    “I’m ready to call it a day and head up to the cabin. Are you?”
    A smile spread his full lips. “More than ready.”
