Great. Next Lucy would want to eat with Jordan, which would leave him and Jayne together. Alone. In front of everyone.
“Sure,” Jayne said with a smile. Before she could get up, Lucy scrambled over her, jumped to the floor, slid her hand into Rebecca’s and headed for the counter, where Jordan sat with her sister, her brother and the Adams twins.
Tyler rested his hands on the tabletop, absently scraping one fingernail across a scar on the other hand. He was uncomfortably aware of his grandparents and two of his brothers seated at a far table and of Daniel and Sarah Ryan sharing a nearer table with the Adamses. He knew what they must be thinking—the same thing Rebecca did. That he needed to give up his isolation. That it was time for him to settle down and start a family. That he needed a woman.
That Jayne Miller could be a very easy woman to need.
His jaw tightened. He doubted that last thought was in anybody’s mind but his, and he couldn’t afford it. He couldn’t let himself want what he couldn’t have.
Across the table she shifted. When he raised his gaze, she smiled a little. She was pretty when she smiled. But, hell, she was pretty when she didn’t smile. “Looks like Lucy’s found a new friend. Do you know Jordan?”
“She’s my boss’s daughter.” Scrape, scrape went the nail over the scar. The mark was old, white, barely raised. An old injury at work or a souvenir from Del? He couldn’t remember.
“Which one is your boss?”
With a breath, he locked his fingers together, then tilted his head to the right. “The big guy over there is Daniel. Sarah, his wife, is on his left. The others are Zachary and Beth Adams. They’re lawyers.” They’d saved his mother’s life and made a huge difference in his. He owed them—and the Ryans—a lot.
