Your
enthusiasm for the continuing saga of the
Justice Brothers continues
to blow me away!
I'm totally jumping the
gun a bit with this excerpt - but just had to share!

They said
nothing for a couple of bites before Alex went back to their conversation.
“So, here’s
the thing fuck face,” he said taking a deep breath. “There’s some tradition
that says the groom needs a best man. Bunch of bullshit about having a second
in case of cold feet.”
Parker made a
strangled sound and quickly reached for his glass of water. After a quick
recovery he mumbled, “Holy shit.”
Alex shook his
head with a hint of a smile and sat back heavily in his chair. “Crap. Like
asking Meghan to marry me wasn’t enough. Now I have to grovel to your sorry ass
as well.”
“Hold on! Hold
on!” Parker wheezed with laughter. Putting his utensils down, he wiped his
mouth on a napkin, then reached across the table and took one of Alex’s hands.
Anyone
watching would assume they were a fucking couple. He wanted to throttle the
asshole.
Grinning
broadly Parker snickered, “Okay. That’s better. Now ask me and make it good Marquez. It’s not every day a guy gets
asked to be in a wedding.”
Alex’s eyes
widened at the jest, which was said just loud enough for the two tables nearest
them to hear. One of the female patrons looked at them and made that Oh, how romantic expression.
The fucker. Okay. Two could play that game.
Clearing his throat dramatically, Alex sandwiched Parker’s big paw between his
hands and squeezed. Hard.
In a voice
equally as loud and attention getting he said, “Parker Sullivan. Will you do me
the great honor of coming with me to Boston and stand by my side at the altar
for a marriage that was destined to be?”
It was a
priceless fucking moment made even better because Alex knew damn well at least
one cell phone camera had captured the proposal.
Parker burst
out laughing, followed quickly by Alex who nearly fell over from the absurdity
of the scene they were creating.
“This calls
for champagne!”
“Why? Because
I’m paying for it?” Alex drawled.
“You can
afford it,” Parker said tsking. “And you knew I wasn’t a cheap date when you
asked me out.”
Can't wait for DESERT ANGEL?
