Sebastian blinked in disbelief that he couldn’t free his hand and wondered why she was so strong.

“Cool? You mean because he gets to step out of a Porsche while people are staring at him?”

“Uh, yeah, maybe?” he said.

Madison stared at Sebastian. “Wait. Do you think it’s cool?”

He shook his head. “In our family, we think driving an Aegis is the coolest.”

She replied, “My dad and I, along with the uncles in my hometown, all agree that Lexus is the best.” She paused and said, “So why does he always drive a Porsche?”
