She was worried the woman would keep pursuing Nash. It wasn't men's wandering hearts that scared her, it was when other women got serious. No man could resist temptation when it's served to him on a silver platter. "Nash, consider yourself lucky," Nina muttered under her breath.

Nina grabbed his arm. "Don't you dare."
