grit her teeth. “Don’t you think you should spend some time with Ashleigh?”
    “We’ll have the weekend for that. Right now, I’ve got tons of work to do and little time to do it.”
    “You know what?” Kaitlyn said angrily. “You have no one to blame but yourself for Ashleigh keeping her history from you. Poor thing probably tried to tell you a dozen times and you had your face buried in that computer. A relationship takes work, too, ya know?”
    In no mood to be lectured on relationships, Erica tried to keep her temper in check. “Drop it, Katie. I don’t need you to go Dr. Phil on me.”
    “Don’t come crying to me when she—”
    “Drop it!”
    “I didn’t mean that,” Kaitlyn said softly. “You know I’ll always be there for you. But know this, after the tears stop falling, I’m going to remind you of this conversation.”
    “Noted, now take the next street. I don’t want to take the scenic route home.”
    Kaitlyn did as she was asked. When Erica got out of the car, they both mumbled a good night, and Kaitlyn drove home.

Chapter Six

    Kaitlyn walked into the dark kitchen and noticed the pot on the stove. Dinner was ready, but there was no sign of Drew. She walked into the den, and in the corner sat her partner staring at the computer screen.
    “Woman, what are you doing and why isn’t my dinner on the table?”
    Drew leaned back in her chair and plucked the reading glasses from her nose. “Woman, what took you so long to get home and where’s my kiss?”
    Kaitlyn chuckled and walked over to where Drew sat. She gave Drew a peck on the lips, then knelt beside her. “How was your day, love?”
    “I got all the summer growth pruned in the front flowerbed and had lunch with Ash. I fixed the washing machine, so it no longer sounds like it’s gonna come through the wall and attack us. And in between playing on the computer, I took a nap like a bum.”
    Kaitlyn gave Drew a disapproving look. “You’re hardly a bum. You get up and make my breakfast every morning. Cook my meals, do my laundry, and keep this house spotless.” Kaitlyn took Drew’s hand into hers and kissed her palm. “I’m spoiled rotten.”
    “Do you really see it that way?” Drew asked as concern etched her face.
    “Drew, honey, I’m one of the luckiest women alive. I go to work, and I don’t have to worry about what to cook for dinner. I don’t have to worry about getting home in time to cut the grass before dark. My clothes are always clean and in the closet. How many women can say that? I live a life of luxury because you provide it. So, yes, I truly do see it that way.”
    “Thank you,” Drew said as the smile returned to her face. She leaned down and placed the sweetest of kisses on Kaitlyn’s lips.
    “How is Ash?” Kaitlyn stood and rubbed Drew’s shoulders.
    Drew groaned as Kaitlyn massaged the knotted muscles in her neck. “Ash has some big hurdles to jump. I’ll tell you about it over dinner.”
    Kaitlyn leaned closer to the computer screen. “Is that her?”
    Long dark red curls obscured the faintly familiar face as they hung down and covered one green eye. The smile was cocky as she stood with one hand on her hip. The jacket with the large shoulder pads hid the slight frame.
    “Her legs look like toothpicks,” Kaitlyn said with a grin. “I like the boots, though.” Kaitlyn looked at the other women who stood alongside Ashleigh. “So this must be the rest of the band,” she said, leaning in for a closer look. “I never got the name Versal, though, what does it mean?”
    “That’s the drummer’s last name, she founded the band. That’s her on the far right.” Drew pointed to the shortest member of the group. What she lacked in height, she made up in muscle. The sleeveless vest showed off well-formed biceps. She too had a head full of curly long hair.
    “What’s up with all the curls?” Kaitlyn asked as she pulled Drew from her seat and toward the kitchen.
    “Katie, you remember the
