than what I’ve got.”
    “I’m not sure your motives are quite so virtuous.” Annie had a wicked gleam in her eyes. “I think you like the house because you want females falling at your feet. A single, handsome bodyguard with a big house is a real turn on for some women. A woman with a kind heart, long legs, and unlimited patience would love to be part of that.”
    “You weren’t exaggerating, were you?” Dylan enjoyed watching the confusion on Annie’s face. “You remembered all of the important things I’m looking for. But you forgot one thing.”
    “A sports car?”
    “Nice try, Ms. O’Leary. You told me I had the nesting bug. Most of the women I’ve met want everything except the nest.”
    “You must have been looking in the wrong places.” Annie sighed. “They do things a little differently in Montana. If you’re ready to settle down, you’ll have twice as many women banging on your door.”
    Dylan smiled. “We’d better make sure there’s a doorbell, then. I wouldn’t want them chipping their nail polish.” He closed her door and headed toward his side of the truck.
    The frown on Annie’s face didn’t worry him at all. And neither did her bright pink nails, especially if the house they were going back to had a doorbell.
     

 
     
     
     
    Chapter Four
     
    Dylan looked at the men sitting in Pastor Steven’s living room. Everyone except Logan seemed tired. Out of all of them, Logan had the most reason to look a little rough around the edges. Planning a wedding couldn’t be the easiest thing to do, especially with his mom keeping tabs on what they were doing.
    Everyone except Todd had managed to make the meeting. No one talked about why he regularly left Montana, but they knew it had something to do with his life back in New York.
    What most of the group didn’t know was that Todd was determined to track down the men responsible for killing his wife and son. Dylan had known Todd for eight months. During that time, Todd had thrown himself into more dangerous situations than most people found in their lifetimes. And each time he came home, it took longer to get back to where he’d been before he left.
    “So what have you been up to, Logan?” Pastor Steven asked.
    Logan choked on the coffee he’d been drinking. “Don’t do that to me,” he groaned. “I’ve just had a week of my mother asking exactly the same thing. Our wedding reception’s turning into the party from hell.”
    “Serves yourself right for getting married.” Jeremy smirked from the other side of the room. He wouldn’t have said that if he’d been sitting next to Logan.
    “Been there, done that,” William sighed. “You just got to go with it, man. Some women like to take control. It doesn’t matter what you say or do, it won’t be good enough.”
    Dylan paid close attention to William. He knew William’s marriage had taken a turn for the worst not long after he’d arrived in Bozeman.
    “How’s Patsy doing?” Pastor Steven asked William.
    Patsy was William’s wife. They’d had a baby six months ago and they were still struggling with sleepless nights.
    “She’s okay. I help where I can, but I’m gone for most of the day. The meals Logan brought around the other day were appreciated.”
    Logan relaxed in his chair. “Tess thought they might help. Delivering them to you got me away from mom.”
    Pastor Steven’s gaze turned to Dylan. “What have you been doing, Dylan?”
    Dylan had been dreading what he’d say today. There were only two rules in their support group. Be honest with yourself and be honest with everyone else. He hadn’t even told Logan what he’d been doing. “Work has been busy.”
    “And…” Jeremy looked at him expectantly. The kid could be a right royal pain in the ass sometimes.
    “And nothing. We’re looking at expanding our warehouse; providing secure storage without all the bells and whistles our current building has.”
    “Are you going to build something from scratch
