“Aye,” Phinsaid. “I had to keep you warm and me cool.”
“That makessense.” I smiled. “Show me the kitchen.”
“Are you goingto cook?”
“Depends on whatwe have for me to make.”
“Nothing,” headmitted. “But we can stop at the grocery store when we run into town.”
I grinned.“Let’s make a list.”
Afterdetermining Phin needed pretty much everything except toilet paper, we made ourway down to the garage.
“Which car isyours?” I asked, staring at three luxury cars up against the wall.
“All of them.”
“Oh, my lord,you are such a cliché.”
He laughed. “Iam?”
“The handsomeprince with a sports car fetish.”
He raised aneyebrow, taking my hand and leading me one aisle over. A Ferrari, Lamborghini,Bentley, Rolls Royce, Jaguar, Range Rover, Mercedes, and BMW were lined upneatly against the brick wall to the right of the elevator.
I gasped. “Arethose yours, too?”
“No, love. Thoseare Liam’s.”
“What the heckdoes he need with, one, two, three… eight cars?”
“Ten,” he corrected.“The Cadillac is in Inverness, and the Town Car is currently at the office withhim.”
I swallowed.“That’s just nuts.”
“Aye, love, buthe’s always loved cars, so it’s no different than having a passion forantiques, horses, or, I don’t know, vintage spoons.”
“Are you wellversed in vintage spoons, honey?” I teased.
“I think I’llwait to reveal that secret.”
I chuckled.“What does Liam do with them when he doesn’t want the cars anymore?”
“Donates them tocharities or gives them to different staff members.”
“Wow, that’sactually really nice.”
“He’s a niceguy.” He grinned. “Now, which car do you want to take?”
“Probably theone that has the most room. We need to stock up the pantry since you havenothing in your cupboards.”
“G-Wagon it is,”he said, and we headed to the Mercedes.

Later that night, we fell intobed, somewhat exhausted by our full day. I, on the other hand, was also filledwith nervous energy because I had fallen in love with Edinburgh and I mean, inlove.
“Okay, at therisk of perhaps ruining the family dynamic, what would happen if I said Iwanted to move here?” I asked.
