Zachary shook his head. “I’ve got competition. Someone else is interested in it. Grace Deveraux.”

Xander narrowed his eyes at his brother. “Kyle and Beau Deveraux’s sister? Is she trouble? I know for sure that she wasn’t involved in their scheme, but nothing else.”

“I don’t think she’s trouble like her brothers. But from what I’ve heard, she’s every bit as arrogant and dismissive as they are.”

“She’s hot. I saw her recently at an event. The host went out of their way to point out that she’s recently divorced and available,” Beckett said, rolling his eyes.

“Doesn’t matter to me,” Zachary said. “Haven’t even met her yet, but I’m sure I can convince her to step aside.”

I cocked a brow as Xander, Anthony, and Beckett all started to give him advice at once. Oh, this was going to be a bloodbath. Orrr... sparks could fly. You just never knew when it came to the LeBlanc brothers.

Maybe I should wrap a package of pralines for Grace too. And ask Isabeau and Celine if there’s any way to include lilac in sweets.
