Aspen, Colorado
December 23
Sophie’s eyes lit up as she entered the
mansion, careful to stamp the snow off her shoes. The foyer
featured a glittering gold and silver chandelier, complementing the
cream walls and duck-egg blue carpet.
This year, her husband Mitch and his
brothers had organized a week-long family Christmas in Aspen,
Colorado. Usually, the Trask brothers and their wives spent
Christmas in Vermont with Linda and Tom Trask, the brothers’
parents, or with their own wife’s parents. But this festive season,
Sophie’s parents’-in-law had decided to go on a tropical cruise
instead, and experience a balmy Christmas. They’d invited Tom’s
mother, known to the whole family as Grandma, and her second
husband, whom she’d married many years ago.
When Mitch and his brothers had found out
about their parents’ plans, they’d upgraded their parents and
grandparents to the most luxurious cruise imaginable, before
deciding to do something different as well. Alex had found this
house through one of his business partners, and all the brothers
had chipped in for the week-long rental. Sophie didn’t even want to
think about the cost, but she knew however much it was, Mitch could
definitely afford his share.
“Like it?” Mitch wrapped his arms around
her waist, his touch gentle on her barely noticeable
bump.
“I love it.” She peeked through the
doorway into the luxurious great room. A large stone fireplace
dominated the space. Comfortable looking dark leather sofas and
armchairs invited her to sit down and relax, while enjoying the
view of the snow-covered garden through the large
windows.
Trailing her fingers over his hands, she
added, “The baby likes it too.”
“Another five months and I’ll be holding
her in my arms.” His clean, warm breath tickled the side of her
neck.
“It might be a boy,” she teased him,
electricity coursing through her. Although they’d been married
eight years, every time Mitch touched her, it felt like the very
first time.
“I don’t mind if it’s a girl or a boy, as
long as our baby’s healthy.” He nuzzled her neck.
“Stop smooching and bring in some bags,”
Alex called out. In his mid-forties but still lean and muscular,
with dark brown hair and brown eyes, like all the Trask brothers,
he dumped two heavy suitcases on the floor.
Mitch mock-saluted him then kissed Sophie
lingeringly, before carrying in their own suitcases.
“Mommy, Mommy, I want to see my room!” A
five-year-old boy zoomed into the great room, Maddie and Garrett
Trask following closely behind.
“Yeah, Mommy!” A little girl tugged at
Maddie’s hand. “I want to see too!”
“Give your mom a minute,” Garrett advised
his offspring with a grin. He wrapped his arm around Maddie’s
shoulders. “You okay to help them choose their room?”
She smiled up at him. “Sure.”
“I’ll bring up all our stuff.”  His
lips snared hers for an instant, before both kids tugged on her
hands, urging her forward.
“Daddy, will Santa know we’re here?” A
little girl with blonde hair looked up at Cole Trask, a worried
frown on her face as they entered the house.
“Of course he will, little Phoebe. Don’t
you worry. I know exactly how to tell Santa where we are.” Cole
ruffled his daughter’s hair.
The little girl clapped her hands in
delight. “Goody!”  She raced up the stairs to explore.
“Did you bring all the presents?” Phoebe
crinkled her brow, rocking Hailey, their six-month old baby girl in
her arms. She’d had last minute customers at her antiques store,
and Cole had taken over the packing of the Christmas gifts for
their daughters, as well as her sisters-and-brothers-in
law.
He drew her and Hailey into his arms. “Got
it covered. Don’t worry.”
She relaxed in his embrace. As long as he
held her like this, she didn’t think anything could go wrong.
“Daddy, we have another
