Page 68 of Their Reluctant Catch

Todd grins, not the least bit fazed. “No, it’s not, but it works wonderfully for us.”

My youngest brother ambles closer, having caught the last bit of our conversation. “You already share everything with Callum and Finn,” Todd says, gesturing between us. “Running the garage and forming a household together. It’s the same for us. We own the boat and the house together. Sharing with Colton is natural for me. Like you’re used to sharing with Callum and Finn.”

Callum crosses his arms, studying Todd like he’s weighing his words. “Work’s one thing. A relationship is another.”

“Not really.” Todd shrugs. “Both need trust. Communication. Commitment. You work well together, so why not work together in a relationship with a woman?”

I blink. “But how does it work? Isn’t anyone getting jealous?”

Todd shakes his head. “No. Hasn’t happened for us. But that’s because each of us is willing to speak up. If something isn’t working, wetalk. Just like you would in a relationship with two people, or like you would with a business partner. If you’re not honest, it won’t last.”

I roll his words around in my head, with a glance at Callum.

“Huh. Never thought about it like that.” Callum’s lips curve slightly, and he shrugs. “Maybe we should, though.”

I turn my head sharply, blinking at him. “You serious?”

He doesn’t answer, just takes a slow sip from whatever is in his Solo cup before tipping his chin toward the crowd.

My gaze follows, landing on Finn, standing a few yards away. Our middle brother watches silently as Colton steals a kiss from Savannah, his expression unreadable.

Hmm, maybe it is time to look for a woman ourselves.
