her. “How can you be so sure?”

      “Because Lucas has a soft spot for women.”

      “I thought it was the other way around,” Theo said with a laugh.

      “This isn’t funny,” Blair snapped.

      Theo held up a hand. “Sorry.”

      “As I was saying,” she went on, “it’s common knowledge around the courthouse that Lucas has a hard time saying no to a pretty face. I hate to trade on that, but I will. Besides, I owe Lucas an apology.”

      There was silence for a moment.

      “Go ahead, Blair,” Sam said finally. “See what you can do.”

      She went to Sam and hugged him. “Thanks, Daddy.”

      “Honesty is a big thing with Lucas,” he told her. “Try not to forget that. I wish I hadn’t.”

      “I won’t,” she promised, then asked, “Has Mom called Uncle Howard?”

      “Of course,” Sam replied sarcastically. “He’s the first one she calls whenever anything happens.”

      Blair heard the sarcasm, but she didn’t comment. The relationship between her father and her uncle was tense. Howard was her mother’s youngest brother and he remained an integral part of their lives, which Sam didn’t like. Howard was a sheriff in the Austin area, and he and Sam had different points of view on the law.

      However, her mother and Uncle Howard were close. Having no children of his own, Howard was also close to Blair and Blake; Sam didn’t like that, either. But Blair loved Uncle Howard. He’d always been there for her, especially after the attack. He’d taken her to her grandparents’ farm, where Howard and Ava were raised, and given her an opportunity to heal, away from all the distressing realities of her life. The farm was special to her and Uncle Howard knew that, and she’d always be grateful for his big heart.
