Logan glared at Cowboy, who pretended not tonotice.
“Something happen between you two?” Cowboyasked.
“I have an idea,” said Logan. “How about you and I discuss the finer points of your relationship withCharlotte?”
Cowboy turned on his heel. “Nevermind.”
“Hang on there, brother. I think this is a fine idea. You’ve been dating my sister for what, almost sixmonthsnow?”
“Seven.”
“And she moved in with you about a hot week after thecruise.”
“Yep.”
Logan got his rhythm going again, the speed bag bouncing hard between its platform and Logan’s alternating fists. “Guess I’m just wondering what your intentions are toward mysister,Leo.”
“You ate fucking grumpy flakes for breakfast this morning,didn’tyou?”
“Didn’t seem to bother you until I changed thetopic.”
“Charlotte and I are happy just the waysthingsare.”
Logan stopped punching and turned to Cowboy. “You’re not going tomarryher?”
“Not that it’s any of your business, but she doesn’t want to getmarried.”
“Bullshit. ShemarriedRick.”
“Exactly. She married Rick, and look how thatturnedout.”
“Son of a bitch.” Logan ran a hand through his hair. “You can’tconvinceher?”
“I meant what I said. We’re happytogether.”
“You don’t know her like I do. She’s broken inside. That loser made her think she wasworthless.”
Cowboy nodded. “I know that, too. But I treat her like the most important person in the world, because that’s just what she is to me. Nothing would make me happier than making her my wife, but the idea doesn’t make her happy at all. Not much I can do about that,Logan.”
Logan cursed under his breath and took off his boxing gloves. “I’m sorry, man. I just assumed you were draggingyourfeet.”
“And you wanted to beat somebody up. I get it, man. But maybe you should go talk to Gemma instead of throwing rocks at everybody else’swindows.”

Gemma rolled her eyes. Her father couldn’t remember his own name or hers, but he could sweep this wholecategory.
It was one of hisbetterdays.
