Page 4 of Family Bonds: Coy & Angel

“No plans,” he said. “I had my nephew Liam last night so my brother Drew and his, wife, Amanda, could go out. He didn’t want to go to sleep when he was supposed to.”

A man who loved kids. Could Coy get any more perfect?

Did she have rose-colored glasses on? Yep, she did and wasn’t afraid to admit it.

“He’s two now, right?” she asked. She remembered everything she could about what she’d heard of Coy in the past few years.

She was thrilled that Spencer went to law school where Coy was in dental school, giving them a few more years together, and were still as close as ever.

“Two and a half,” he said. “And a handful but in the best way possible.”

“That’s sweet,” she said. “And speaking of sweet. Wow.”

They’d walked past the reception area, which was modern and fresh. She didn’t expect any differently with Coy’s family owning the biggest real estate firm in Massachusetts. Not to mention his brother Bode’s construction company.

Spencer had made comments over the years that Coy had ownership in the family businesses and even the retirement community that his brothers had built a few years ago.

Here she was with her first job and just trying to figure out how to pay down her student loans.

“It’s great isn’t it?” he said, looking around with his arms open. “This is your room.”

They’d been walking down the hall and she was glancing into all the rooms they passed.

Everything looked new, though she knew Coy had been in business for seven years.

He’d graduated and opened up his practice right away.

Didn’t even buy one that existed or work somewhere else for the experience, that she knew of.

He dove right in head first.

She supposed when you have the financial backing it does make life easier.

Not that she ever thought of his wealth.

She was more interested in Coy as a person.

A man.

The one that would be her first.

Slow down, girl, she told herself.

First, she had to figure out a way to let him know what she was feeling.

Work would have to be the priority though.

He’d be her boss and that could get sticky too.

She’d figure it out as she’d been doing with everything in her life so far.

She got here and didn’t think that would ever happen. It wasn’t even her who made the move, but her brother who brought it up.

Talk about fate!

The rest would just fall into place.

“It’s awesome,” she said, running her hand along the gray leather chair that her patients would be sitting in. “I can’t wait. I can’t believe how excited I am.”
