“What the hell is going on?”

Mick nearly growled as they were interrupted again and turned his head to see who this new person was. His eyes widened when a uniformed police officer stood on the sidewalk staring at him. “That old bat called the cops?” he whispered to Faith.

Faith groaned and struggled in his grasp again. “Put me down, Mick.”

As much as he loathed doing so, the look on the cops face left no room for argument. He sighed and eased Faith to her feet. He turned and faced the officer as Faith straightened her blouse.

“Faith, you have five seconds to explain.”

“What did Mrs. Pritchard say?”

“She said you were getting attacked by some tattooed hoodlum but I can tell by that tender moment I just witnessed that’s isn’t the case.”

Mick raised an eyebrow and glanced between the officer and Faith. Less than fifteen minutes in this town and he’d been assaulted and had the cops called on him. He could already tell his trip to Nowhere, Georgia was going to be one for the record books.

“This is Mick,” Faith said, taking a step back and closer to him. She smiled hesitantly before looking up at him. “Mick, this is Adam. My oldest brother.”

Mick’s eyes widened as he looked back over at the officer. “Your brother is a cop?”

“Uh, Sheriff, actually.”

Mick laughed. He couldn’t help it. His new father-in-law was a Minister and his brother-in-law the Sheriff. What other surprises was he in store for?

Adam crossed his arms over her chest and stared at him. His eyes narrowed while his gaze bore into him. Mick cut his laughter off with a chuckle and shook his head. “Faith, I’m beginning to think you were sent to me as payment for all the bad shit I’ve ever done in my life.”

She snorted a laugh and said, “You’re probably not too far from the truth.”

“What’s that supposed to mean? What other surprises do you have for me?”

“This is the man you married?” Adam asked interrupting their conversation.

Faith sighed and nodded her head. “Yes.”

Adam stared at Mick, his gaze lingering over the tattoos and the facial piercing. “Has dad seen him yet?”

“No,” Faith whined.

Adam stood silently for long minutes before he grinned and started laughing. He looked between the two of them and was bent over double, hands on his knees when Faith looked away. Mick saw her eyes tear up and his chest ached at the sight of it. When Adam continued to laugh, he bent and leaned close to Faith’s ear. “Can I punch him out?”

She grinned but shook her head. “No. He’ll lock you up.”

“For how long?”

“Long enough for your junk to fall off waiting to be released.”

Mick straightened and waited, along with Faith, for Adam to stop laughing. By the time he had, the sidewalk behind him was packed with people.

Adam swiped a hand over his eyes and shook his head. “Faith, please don’t tell dad until I’m there to witness it. I’ll tear up all your parking tickets if you do.”

“You’ll go to hell for lying, Sheriff Weston.”

He grinned. “I’m not lying. I swear. They’ll disappear if you let me sit in on it.”

“No,” she said. “If you’re there then the others will want to be too.”

“So?” Adam said, grinning. “Mick here is our brother-in-law now. It’s only fair he meets the whole family.”

“Forget it,” Faith said. “I’m not letting you anywhere near daddy until I can talk to him first.”

Jacob stepped around the corner and stopped beside Adam. He grinned before saying, “I already called dad. He’s waiting for you both at the house.”

“Need a lift, sis?” Adam said. “I can take you in the squad car. With the lights on I can have us there in less than ten minutes.”
