“I’m aware.”

His sister was marrying the love of her life...or so she said. They’d chosen Valentine’s Day as their wedding day, which was just a little too cutesy for him, but she hadn’t asked his opinion.

Nigel had met his soon-to-be brother-in-law a handful of times when he’d gone home and the guy seemed like he’d fit into the Townshend family perfectly. But Nigel was in no hurry to bring home a woman. It would take someone special to get him ready to introduce her to the rest of the clan.

An image of Roslyn flashed through his mind.
