The Inheritance (Happy Endings Resort Book 1) Read Online Free PDF

“Luke here is going to help you with your order. I gotta go make sure the music for tonight is set.” She moved around the bald, very well built specimen of a man. Even in the dim lighting I could see the sun-kissed tan of his well-defined, muscular arms. I think if Jason wasn’t standing next to me, I would have fallen off of my chair when his piercing blue eyes moved from Stixx to me. I think Jason sensed my reaction because he moved his position closer to me. I tried to hold back my smile.
    “Luke Greene, this is Rory London. Rory London . . . Luke Greene.”
    “Ah, the new landlady.” He smiled a dazzling smile that must make the girls’ panties just melt away.
    “She actually hasn’t agreed to come on as landlady yet.”
    “Well, we’ll have to see what we can do to change her mind about that.” He winked at me. I could almost feel the tremor coming off of Jason’s body.
    “I think we are going to order some food.” Jason changed the subject and offered me a menu as the men eyed each other. “Would you like a soda or something?”
    “A Pepsi would be great and the deluxe burger with no tomato.”
    “I’ll have the same with a Sam Adams.” Jason handed the menu back to Luke.
    “Sure, it would be my pleasure to feed you.” He directed his comment directly to me with a smirk as he shoved the menu under the bar.
    “Not performing tonight?” Jason looked back at the small darkened stage at the back of the room.
    “Nah, some new guy tonight. Kill— something.” He placed my drink in front of me. “I’ll be performing tomorrow night if you want to stop by again.” He said with a raise of his brow. “I’ll go put your food order in.” He laughed when Jason started to say something before he walked away.
    “A bit of advice. Stay away from Luke. He is kind of a love’em and leave them type, without the love’em part.”
    “Maybe he just hasn’t found the right woman.” I smiled seeing the effect of my comment on him. “But I will keep my distance. Not really in the position . . .”
    “I could show you a couple of really good positions.” Luke’s voice broke in and I giggled.
    “Thanks, but not presently in the market.” I sipped my soda as the men had a bit of a standoff.
    “Excuse me?” A petite woman with shoulder length, light brown hair with what appeared to be blonde highlights and green eyes approached the bar. She was dressed in what I would call bohemian fashion. “I’m looking for Killian.”
    “No groupies allowed in the back,” Luke barked at her.
    “Yeah, I’m not a groupie, I’m his girlfriend.” She stood up straighter and looked Luke right in the eye, not fazed by their dazzle.
    “Down the hall, third door on the left.” Luke answered. “Can I get you something . . .” He didn’t get to finish before she was already headed down the hallway he had directed her to.
    “Why is it all the hot ones are taken?” he crooked a brow at me.
    “Maybe your right one just hasn’t shown up yet. And when she does, you should probably tone down the flirting with every woman that walks by.” I smiled at him and turned with a wink to Jason. “I’m going to the ladies room before the food comes.”  I slid off of the bar stood almost bumping my chest with Jason’s, but he took a step back to give me some room.
    “Missed chance there man,” Luke said with a laugh and a shake of his head as he threw a towel over his shoulder. I couldn’t help but smile as I stepped away heading toward the restroom sign above the hallway.

    “I certainly hope that isn’t alcohol you’re drinking,” a male voice said from behind and above me. Jason had just excused himself to the men’s room and that was definitely not his voice.
    “Ah,” I turned and vaguely remembered the man now moving to be in front of me so I was no longer craning my neck to look at him.
    “Drew. Drew Parker.” He offered his hand. He must have seen the confusion on my face. “We met last
