Picture Perfect

pulled back from him. As embarrassed as I was to have been caught red-handed, I had to laugh when I saw Gram and Pop standing at the kitchen door applauding. Clearly, they were delighted to find Flynn and I being lovey-dovey.
    Sylvia was across the room to me in a flash, pulling me into a hug. “We missed you terribly sugarplum! I’m so happy to see you back here ahead of schedule. It’s my understanding that things are going incredibly well for you and my beautiful boy, not that I’m surprised. I knew from the moment I saw you two together that this was the real thing.”
    What I loved about Sylvia was that she had no filters. If she thought or felt something, she wasn’t going to hold it in.
    Before I had a chance to respond to her non-question, Mason was throwing his arms around me in greeting. “Better watch what you tell her Tessa-girl. This one’s chomping at the bit to see her little man standing at the end of an aisle waiting for you. You’d think having Dominique and Delilah in our lives would have slowed her down, but my Sylvia’s got granddaughter fever and she wants to mark you as one of her own.”
    I didn’t quite know what, exactly, I could say to that. I was aware that my mouth was opening and closing, but I wasn’t able to form words. Finally I settled on, “Um, I think it’s really early for that.”
    Sylvia grabbed my hand and pulled me from Mason with a laugh. “Oh sugarplum, there are none so blind as those who can’t see. It’s not too early dear, trust me.” Turning to Flynn she said, “Tessa’s going to make a beautiful bride, don’t you think?”
    I was mortified that she was putting him on the spot like that, and it took everything I had not to smack my forehead with my hand. I imagined that Flynn wanted to run from the room. Instead of running, he laughed. Grabbing me from Sylvia, he took my hand and lifted it to his mouth, opening my hand and settling a kiss on my palm before closing it and addressing his Gram. “No doubt about it, she’s going to be stunning.”
    I pretty much vapor-locked right then and there. Was Flynn agreeing with Sylvia that he saw marriage in our future?
    Giving a mental shake of my head, I laughed it off. Of course he didn’t mean it, he just said it because he was put on the spot. I was falling for him- hell, I’d already fallen- but the tour loomed like a black cloud. I knew that it was bound to change everything we had. It would shift our relationship for sure, and I feared that it would do irreparable damage.
    Thankfully the bell saved us when the front door chimed announcing the arrival of Flynn’s guests.
    Flynn’s dad was first through the door and he enveloped me in a big hug. Then things got overwhelming for a few minutes as I was introduced to everyone else. Flynn’s newly discovered twin sisters, Dominique and Delilah, were amazing. They were ridiculously beautiful but they also managed to be two of the most genuine people I’d ever been fortunate enough to meet. Todd was clearly enamored of his daughters, and it was a lovely sight. Flynn had filled me in about what a difficult life the Hart family had before their Aunt Sandra took over, and it really impressed me how down to earth, and well adjusted, they all were.
    Everyone except for Dominique had a significant other at his or her side. Flynn had already told me that she appeared to be single, so I’d expected that. The introductions moved on to Delilah and Dominique’s other brothers, Dante and Damien Hart. Those two pieces of prime eye candy were male model material, but just like their sisters, they couldn’t have been nicer. Dante introduced me to his wife, Sabrina, and then Damien introduced me to his fiancée, Brooke. Sabrina and Brooke were sisters, and the resemblance was obvious. They perfectly complimented their men, and it was clear to see that both relationships were in full bloom.
    Next I met was Delilah’s fiancée, Spencer. He was built like a Nordic God, and I had to remind myself to swallow as I took all of him in. I’d been told that he and the Hart boys were like brothers, and even though there was no physical resemblance, I could see similarities in the three of them, mostly because they all carried themselves the same way. There were women everywhere who would kill to be a room with this much male beauty, and I sure did enjoy it.
    Spencer was in full expectant dad mode and it was adorable . He had an eye on Delilah at all times, their movements so
