Janina's life became a whirlwind of activity. The launch event for her independent brand was just over two weeks away.
Melody finally managed to clear her schedule for two days, and the long-awaited friends' get-together was set to take place at The Tasting Room.
West, knowing Janina was bringing her best friends, had reserved the best private room on the second floor for them. The restaurant was packed for lunch, so West was busy. He stopped by their room to greet Janina’s friends before rushing back to work.
"Nina, are all your brothers really single?" Melody teased.
Janina nodded with a sigh. "Yep. All of them are aging bachelors."
Her eldest Nash, and second-eldest brothers, Galen, were both approaching thirty without ever having had a girlfriend. Every time their parents spoke to them, the conversation inevitably turned to marriage, but neither brother seemed to be in any hurry.
Nash claimed he was too busy to date. Besides, what girl would be interested in a farmer? In his heart, he had already written off marriage for himself.
Galen’s situation was even more dire. He spent all his time on construction sites, surrounded by a legion of men. There wasn't a single woman in sight. Even the site dogs were male. How was he supposed to find someone? It was impossible. He worked 365 days a year, with only one day off a month.
Her third brother, West, was just getting his business off the ground, and a past relationship had left him wary, so he wasn't considering settling down for now.
Her fourth brother,Nolan, was in the same boat, still scarred by a fraudulent online relationship and cynical about love.
Janina felt that the romantic paths for her four brothers were destined to be rocky.
