Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 1248

Cooper bolted forward, with Mia hot on his heels. The little one, who'd been woken up by his uncle's kiss and started crying, was now wiggling out of his blanket, eager to see what all the fuss was about.

Mia was busy slipping socks onto Henry's tiny feet. "Want more face time with him? You've got to pay up," she teased.
