Prologue
Sloan and Leslie Outlaw’s wedding...
“Sloan definitely likes kissing you, girlfriend.”
Leslie Outlaw couldn’t help but smile at her best friend’s whispered words. “And I love kissing him.”
She’d married the man she loved, and she’d had her best friend Carmen Golan at her side. Leslie followed her friend’s gaze now and saw just where it had landed—right on Redford St. James, who was being corralled by the photographer as Sloan took pictures with his best man and groomsmen.
Unease stirred Leslie’s insides at her friend’s obvious interest.
Leslie had known Redford for as long as she’d known Sloan, since she’d met both guys the same day on the university’s campus over ten years ago. Redford had been known then as a heartbreaker. According to Sloan, Redford hadn’t changed. If anything, he’d gotten worse.
“Carmen, I need to warn you about Redford,” Leslie said, hoping it wasn’t too late. She’d noted last night at the rehearsal how taken her best friend had been with Redford. She’d hoped she was mistaken.
“I know all about him, Leslie, so you don’t need to warn me. However, you might want to put a bug in Sloan’s ear to warn Redford about me.”
Leslie lifted a brow. “Why?”
A wide smile covered Carmen’s face. “Because Redford St. James is the man I intend to marry. Your hubby is on his way over here. I will see you at the reception.”
Leslie watched Carmen walk toward Redford. Marry? Redford? She had a feeling her best friend was biting off more than she could chew. Redford was not the marrying kind. He’d made that clear when he’d said no woman would ever tame him.
