“You sent him flowers?” Joanna asked, her voice dipping as she gave a little laugh. “I love that. It’s so girl power. He does something nice, you send him a bouquet. Did he like them?”

“He loved them. He said nobody had ever sent him flowers before.”

Joanna giggled. “And I can’t believe you’re calling him Doctor Love. That’s hilarious.”

“He doesn’t find it quite so funny.” Mia grinned as she remembered the message she wrote on the card.

To Doctor Love. Thank you for the rehab weekend. Especially Naked Saturday. Love Mia (Your MIF) xx

“Ah, the guy’s falling for you. I bet he finds everything you do funny.” Joanna sighed. “This is like one of those romance novels. I’m feeling faint just talking about it. And I can’t tell you how jealous I am that he whisked you away for the weekend.”

Mia leaned back on her office chair and gave a little sigh. “It was romantic,” she admitted. And hot as hell, too. Her skin tingled at the memory of how good Cam Hartson looked in the buff, his strong defined muscles covered by taut, smooth skin.

“How do you think the boys will take it when you tell them?” Joanna asked.

“I don’t know. Josh will be okay, I think. He likes Cam and he’s young enough to accept him. Michael… I’m not so sure.”

“He’ll get used to it. He went away with his dad and Gemma, after all.”

“Yeah, he did.” Maybe Joanna was right.

“And he knows Cam. He’s his coach. He must respect him. I know they got off to a bad start with the car.” Joanna gave a little laugh. “But that’s all ancient history.”

“Yeah, he hasn’t mentioned it for weeks.”

“There you go. It’ll be fine.” Jo’s voice softened. “I’m so happy for you. You deserve this after all you’ve been through. And maybe I can get some free tickets to a football game.”

Mia laughed. “Maybe.”

“Seriously, I want to meet him some time.”

“I’d like that.” Mia rolled her lip between her teeth. “He’s important to me.”

“I kind of got that impression,” Joanna teased. “I know this is all going to work out. It has to.”

“I hope so.” Mia smiled softly. Everything felt so different since they’d agreed to make things official between them. She felt like she was walking around in a haze. “I should go. I have a ton of work to do before I pick Josh up.”

“Okay, sweets. I’ll speak to you soon. Oh and Mia?”

“Yeah?”

“I watched one of his old games last night and he has so much BDE it made me hot.”

“BDE?” Mia said, her brow dipping in confusion.

“Big Dick Energy. Google it. He’s pretty much the poster boy.”

“Bye, Jo.” Mia pulled the phone from her cheek and pressed her finger to end the call, not waiting for her cousin to reply. No doubt she’d call later, or send a dozen inappropriate texts.

With a glance at her closed office door, she opened up Safari and quickly typed into the search bar.

Big Dick Energy.

Her eyes widened as she read the definition.

It’s confidence without cockiness. It is never misplaced and it cannot be simulated. It is the sexual equivalent of writing a check for $10k knowing you got it in the bank account.

She burst out laughing, because it was so on the mark, the ten thousand dollars included.
