  Chapter One

  Mac looked at the calendar and shook his head. It was hard to believe it that in one week he’d be celebrating his fifth year as a firefighter. And a month from now him and his wife, Grace, would be celebrating their third wedding anniversary. How time flew.

  “What’s up, buddy?” Travis asked, walking up behind Mac. Mac felt Travis’s hand land on his shoulder.

  “Hey.” Mac turned to look at Travis. “Can I get you to do me a favor?”

  Travis gave Mac a smirk. “It’ll cost ya.”

  Mac nodded, not smiling back. “It always does. Watch it, or I’ll sic Gracey on you.”

  “Promises, promises. Your wife is smokin’, buddy. One of these days I’m gonna steal her away.” Travis lost his smirk when Mac didn’t laugh, and cocked his head to the side. “Okay. What’s up?”

  “Gracey has a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, and I’m scheduled for a twenty-four. Can you cover me for a couple hours so I can go with her?” Mac ran his hand over his head. It was days like this he was glad he kept his blonde hair short or else he would have ripped it all out by now.

  “Sure, Mac. I can cover. You getting her results back tomorrow?”

  Mac nodded and blew out a breath. “Yeah. I’m hoping the news is good, but we’ve been trying for two years and still no baby. She’s starting to get pretty down. Every month it’s worse. I don’t know what to do for her, so I thought I’d go with her to hold her hand at the doctor's.”

  Travis slapped Mac on the back. “You’re a good man, Mac. And Gracey is the sweetest. It’ll happen soon. But if there’s anything else I can do, let me know. I’d do anything for either of you.”

  “Thanks. Hey, you off tonight?” Mac asked, thinking.

  “Yeah, I’m off for the next forty-eight before I go back to back twenty-fours. Why?” Travis started to smirk. “What are you cooking up in that warped mind of yours?”

  Mac smiled for the first time since Travis had walked up. “Do you want to come over for dinner tonight? I’ll cook some steaks on the grill, and we'll
do our damnedest to put a smile on my wife’s face.”

  Travis nodded, grinning and rubbing his hand over his sculpted abs. “You know me. I never turn down free food or a chance to flirt with Gracey.” He winked at Mac then stepped away quickly. “What time do you want me? And should I bring whipped cream or chocolate syrup?”

  Mac rolled his eyes. “You know Gracey. Bring the chocolate.” He started to walk away. “And bring the beer. You drank all of mine last time.” He chuckled when he saw Travis flip him off.

  * * * *

  Grace was happy when Mac told her Travis was coming and they were cooking out. Travis could always bring a smile to her face, even when she was pissed at him for something stupid he'd talked Mac into doing. Travis was a good man. The three of them had been friends for years. Travis had stood up for Mac when he and Grace had married. Late at night, she had woken up more than once, hot and wet from dreaming about Mac and Travis taking her together. They’d done it one time, years ago. Too much alcohol had been involved.

  “Knock, knock…,” came a cheerful voice from the kitchen doorway.

  Grace turned and smiled. “Come in.” She eyed the bag in his hand and noticed the case of beer under his arm. “Whatcha got in the bag?”

  Travis grinned, walking over to drop a kiss on her cheek. “A present for my favorite lady.”

  Grace watched as he kept walking, straight to the fridge. He opened the door and shoved the beer inside. Then he half-turned towards Grace and pulled her prize from the bag, showing her before putting it on a shelf and closing the door.

  Grace laughed. “What’s that for, or don’t I want to know?” She turned back to the salad she was throwing together.

  Travis came over to lean against the counter beside her. He feigned shock, putting his hands over his heart. “Why, Gracey! I’m surprised at you. You make it sound like I’m up to no good.” He winked at her.

  “You forget how long I’ve known you. I know you’re up to no good.” She laughed.

  * * * *

  Mac came in from the patio, and spotted Travis. “You made it! Cool. I just lit the grill.” He walked to the refrigerator and opened the door. “Good man. Brought the beer, just like I told you.” Mac paused before letting out a curse. “Jesus Christ.” He chuckled, shaking his head and shutting the fridge door.

  Travis followed Mac back out to the patio. “Man, you know I had to bring it.” He chuckled.

  Mac threw him a grin over his shoulder. “I wouldn’t expect anything less from you, Travis.” He slapped the steaks on the grill and closed the lid. “Let’s park our asses while the steaks cook.” He moved over to the picnic table and straddled one of the seats. It took him a minute to realize that Travis was talking to him. “Sorry, man. What was that?”

  “Wasn’t important. What had you so deep in thought a minute ago? You know, the doc tomorrow is going to give you good news, and Gracey will be back to her ornery self in no time.” Travis took a pull from his beer.

  “I wasn’t thinking about that… Okay, I was, sort of. I have an idea to get her out of her mood. I just don’t know if I should.” He shot a look at Travis after the cryptic answer.

  Travis looked at him for a long moment, trying to figure out what Mac was up to. “Okay, buddy. Marriage has obviously made your brain go soft. I have no idea what that meant.”

  Mac shook his head. “I know.” He took his own pull on his beer. The internal debate on whether to ask Travis was a fierce one. “How do you feel about staying over tonight?”

  Travis’s brows drew down as he stared at Mac. Surely, he wasn’t… Hell, he was. Travis picked up his beer and chugged the rest down. “Are you serious? Cause if you’re not, this could go sideways in a fucking hurry, Mac.”

  Mac blew out a breath and nodded. “I’m serious. It’s not like we haven’t done it before, Travis. She’d never ask for it, but you know how much she loved it last time.”

  Travis sat there and watched Mac. Shaking his head, he pushed up from the picnic table and strode inside for another beer. Grace gave him a questioning look when he walked past her, but he flashed a smile. He went back out to sit with Mac. “Well, I would hate for that chocolate syrup to go to waste. What’s the plan?”

  Mac grinned and leaned in to whisper. “We’re going to get my wife drunk, and then we are going to seduce her.”

  * * * *

  Dinner went off without a hitch. Travis acted like his usual crazy self, making Grace laugh until she was holding her sides. Mac kept Grace’s beers coming until her cheeks took on a rosy glow. “Gracey, sweetheart, why don’t you come sit on my lap?” Mac suggested.

  Grace smiled and got to her feet. She didn’t sway, but her steps were careful. She’d had enough to drink. They wanted her mellow, not passing out. She walked over and slid onto Mac’s lap, leaning back against his chest. “Oh, I like this seat much better,” she grinned.

  Mac winked over at Travis before turning his head to kiss Grace’s neck. “That’s my girl.” His voice rumbled in her ear. His cock was already starting to fill with the knowledge of what they were all about to do. He wouldn’t admit it to Grace, but he enjoyed Travis in their bed as much as she did. He wasn’t completely immune to how good-looking the man was. Mac slid his hands around Grace’s waist and under her shirt. When she sighed, he slid his hands higher to cup her breasts.

  Travis watched Mac and Grace from the corner of his eye while he nursed the warm beer in his hand. His cock had twitched in anticipation when he heard Mac call Grace over. Seeing Mac’s hands in Grace’s shirt, cupping the firm breasts underneath, had it hard in seconds.

  Grace moaned and Travis clenched his jaw. Slowly, he turned his head to see what was happening beside him. He saw Mac with his tongue shoved in Grace’s mouth while his hands massaged her now unbound breasts. Travis shifted in his seat. Fuck, they were hot.

  Travis set his beer on the patio beside his chair, and stood up. Slowly, quietly, he moved to stand in front of Mac and Grace. He watched as Mac’s knees pushed Grace’s legs apart. The scent of Grace’s arousal drifted up to him on the light breeze. He knelt in front of her, slowly starting to push her denim skirt higher on her legs. His large hands slid up the insides of Grace’s thighs. Her skin was soft, smooth, like silk. Travis moved in, closer. His head lowered to place an open-mouthed kiss midway up Grace’s leg. She gave a start, almost pulling away from Mac’s kiss. “Shhhhhh…” Travis heard Mac over the buzzing in his ears. Grace relaxed again and Travis started a trail of kisses up the inside of Grace’s thigh. When he came to the crease between her legs, he used his tongue to make her squirm. He’d never forgotten over the years what made Grace crazy.

  Travis gripped the edge of Grace’s panties in his teeth and yanked them away from her wet pussy. He smiled against her when she gasped. His tongue found its way to her swollen folds and started the journey from core to clit. When she moaned, he began lapping at her in earnest. He was on a mission now. His tongue thrust into her core, flicking back and forth quickly. His lips wrapped around her clit and started to suck. He felt her fingers fist in his hair as he lashed her hard nub with the tip of his tongue.

  Travis flicked his eyes upward. Grace’s head was rolling back and forth on Mac’s shoulder. Mac had raised Grace’s shirt up to bare her breasts. Between the light breeze and the way Mac’s fingers were working her nipples, the peaks were hard as marbles, straining for more. His gaze caught Mac’s. Travis had to reach down and squeeze the erection in his pants because of the heated look Mac was giving him. Mac’s face was flushed now, and Travis knew he was as hard as Travis was.

  Travis lifted one hand from Grace’s leg and moved it under her ass to cup Mac in his hand through Mac’s jeans. He used the heel of his hand to massage the bulge in Mac’s pants. Mac’s head fell back and he groaned. Oh, yeah—he knew what Mac liked, too. His hand slid up and down Mac’s cock while he laved and sucked at Grace’s pussy. When Grace started to tremble and whimper, Travis knew she was close. He focused all his att
ention on her, one goal in mind—to make her go off like a rocket.

  Chapter Two

  Grace didn’t know how she’d ended up in this situation. She knew she’d been on her way to becoming pleasantly tipsy when Mac called her over to sit on his lap. He’d been playing with her breasts, making her warmer by the second. When he kissed her, she knew she was in trouble. Mac’s kiss has always had the ability to fog her mind.

  Somehow, she’d gone from getting loved by her husband to being tag-teamed by Mac and Travis, both. She moaned again. Travis had a wicked tongue. She felt Travis’s hand under her ass and she knew what he was doing. The mental picture made her pussy flood. In her dreams, she always saw the three of them loving whole-heartedly, equally.

  Grace felt Mac’s groan against her back. She felt her own body rising toward orgasm. Her thighs were starting to tremble and she whimpered. Travis’s mouth picked up the pace and her back bowed. One more lick from Travis and she shattered, screaming their names into the night sky.
