I was struck by the contradictions about him, the expensive clothes and bold good looks, the sense of unpolished edges. Looking back up into Travis’s eyes, which were as dark and rich as blackstrap molasses, I asked, “May I speak with you for a few minutes?”
I took it, shook a few drops on my wrist, and shoved the nipple into the baby’s mouth. Luke grunted in satisfaction and fell into a busy, sucking silence. “It’s okay,” Travis said, gesturing for her to give me the bottle, which she had warmed in the office microwave. “Oh God,” she muttered, hurrying forward.

They charmed, seduced, and behaved like bastards, and yet women were biologically incapable of resisting their magic DNA. The classic alpha male, the kind who had spurred evolution forward about five million years ago by nailing every female in sight. One glance and I knew exactly who and what he was.

He was tall and lean, all hard muscle and easy masculinity, with dark eyes and heavy, well-cut black hair. One of them was fair and slim, the other short and a bit portly, and the third was the most striking man I had ever seen.
