Good Enough (Meet Me in Montana #3) - Kelly Elliott Page 0,103

my chest. “Yeah, that was fucking phenomenal. I’ve also been regularly tested for STDs. That was drilled into me at an early age. Besides, I haven’t been with another woman in months.”

She nodded and looked down at the floor. I placed my finger on her chin and lifted until her eyes met mine. “We both know I haven’t exactly been a Boy Scout when it comes to women, but I’m also not a manwhore. When I say I haven’t been with anyone in months, I mean it. There hasn’t been anyone since I met you last September.”

Her eyes widened. “Why not?”

I shrugged. “They weren’t you.”

“Tanner,” she whispered as she came up on her toes and kissed me. She slowly drew back, and I placed my forehead against hers.

“Babe, how soon can you get on the pill? I can drive you there myself through the snow if need be.”

Timberlynn laughed. “I’ll ask Kaylee who her doctor is and make an appointment.”

“Sounds like a plan.”

She looked down at my naked body and flashed me a sexy grin. “I know something else we can do to make me forget my father’s call.”

“More oral sex?” I replied as I waggled my brows.

“No,” she said, laughing. “You could make me breakfast. Naked.”

“As long as you don’t request bacon, I’m totally down for that.”

Chapter Twenty-Six

TIMBERLYNN

Tanner truly made me forget all about my father’s phone call. First with the crazy hot sex on the sofa, then with cooking for me naked. It was the hottest thing I’d ever seen. He was so comfortable in his own skin, which made him even sexier. Of course, midway through cooking he did get dressed, as did I.

I leaned back in the chair and sighed. “Wow! You must have really paid attention in the kitchen growing up. Though I have to say, I’ve never had spaghetti for breakfast before!”

Tanner laughed and pushed his plate to the side. “It wasn’t hard. It was spaghetti. And that was my mom’s homemade sauce in the freezer.”

“I want to learn to do that.”

He lifted a brow. “Make sauce?”

I nodded. “Yes. I never was able to learn things like that, since my mother passed away.”

“Your father never met anyone else?”

With a scoff, I looked down at my empty plate. Memories of women coming in and out of my life were like a blur. My father was good-looking for a man in his early fifties. Women still flocked to him like he was a twenty-something guy. Of course, the fact that he had money and was a doctor played a big role in that.

“He’s dated. A lot. But no, he’s never remarried, and I’m pretty sure he won’t. The girlfriends last until they find out Daddy has no plans of putting a ring on their finger. Then, they move on, or he gets tired of them and breaks it off. There was one I really liked. I think my father liked her too, but when she started to want to spend more time with me, he ended things with her. I hated him for months after that.”

“Why?” Tanner asked as he stood and took both of our plates.

“I guess it was because she was the first female in my life since my mother and my nanny. I was certainly craving that maternal figure. I guess he didn’t want me to have it. So, he broke up with her. From that point on, he kept the women he dated rather distant from me.”

“I’m so sorry, Timber.”

I shrugged. “It is what it is. When I have a child someday, I’m going to make sure they know what it feels like to be loved.”

Tanner smiled and placed his hand on the side of my cheek. “You’re going to make an amazing mother.”

I stared into his blue eyes and took a deep breath, letting it out slowly. “Tanner, I know this is probably not something a couple talks about when they’ve literally just started a relationship, but how do you feel about kids? I mean, I see you with your niece and nephew, and you’re amazing with them. Do you want kids of your own someday?”

“Hell yes, I do.”

Relief flooded through me. I hadn’t really thought much about kids before, but being with the Shaw family, I quickly realized I wanted a family of my own. One where love and laughter filled each room. “Since I’ve been spending time here with your family, seeing Morgan and Blayze, and then hearing Kaylee was pregnant, I realized that I want a family more
