      That answer threw her. “You’re in love?”

      Travis was in a relationship? What had she missed? And why had a knot suddenly formed in her stomach?

      “I watched Caleb, Reed, Seth and Alex all fall head over heels in love. I think I know what to expect.”

      “But you’re not in love yourself?”

      “Not yet.” His expression turned reflective. “But if it happens, I know I’ll recognize the signs.”

      The knot in her stomach relaxed.

      “Your turn,” he told her, his inquiring tone putting her on alert. “Ever been in love?”

      Unsure how much she wanted to disclose to Travis, she bought herself a moment, reaching for two of the flowers in the centerpiece, switching their places to fix the balance.

      “I’ve dated men I liked,” she allowed. “Some, I liked very much. But love?” She shook her head. “I probably wouldn’t know the signs if they bit me on the backside.”

      “I can tell you the signs,” Travis offered easily. “Or I can bite you on the backside. Your choice.”

      A rush of unexpected arousal raised the temperature on her skin.

      Travis grinned. “You’re blushing.”

      “I’m embarrassed. You’re far too crude.”

      “No.” He waggled his brows. “I’m exactly the right amount of crude.”

      Danielle couldn’t help remembering Nadine’s brazen comments. Crude could be sexy. Crude could be very, very sexy.
