she made it easy for you.” Ty picked up his bag and racket.
    “She confessed to attending the Twelve Steps of Dating seminar. The woman teaching the course had given clues to when someone wasn’t really serious. I hit every one of her benchmarks,” Reed said.
    Ty high-fived him.
    “Blair said, ‘I know you don’t want to get married.’” He paused. “What could I say? She’s right. I’m not getting married. Ever.”
    At thirty-two, he was done with forever after . When a woman thought a car was more valuable than her relationship with him, then he could use women for what he wanted. Sex. And more sex.
    Ty’s brown eyes stared at him, curiosity in his gaze. “What now? We’ve wrapped up your project and spent a month resting. You have no girlfriend. What’s next?”
    The familiar zing of excitement gripped his chest, and he couldn’t wait to get started back doing what he loved. He smiled at Ty, anxious to see his reaction. “Yesterday, Graham gave us a new project.”
    “What dictator are we taking down?”
    “I have to thank Blair for giving the idea to Graham.”
    “Blair? The girlfriend?”
    “Yes, our next documentary is on a relationship coach.”
    Ty’s groan echoed over the empty court, and he raised his fist in the air and took a pretend swing. “Crap.”
    “Hang on, man. It gets better,” Reed said laughing at his camera-man’s antics. “I did some research. It seems anyone can hang out a shingle saying she’s a relationship coach. You acquire a special certificate then start a coaching practice. Some are therapists, but most are just ordinary individuals who think they know what’s best for people.”
    For the first time ever, he’d turned Graham down when he’d told Reed about the documentary. At first he’d thought this wasn’t his style of film, but then when he learned what Ms. Morgan was doing and how much she was charging, he’d known he had to expose the beautiful schemer. And when Graham had promised Reed his choice of subjects for the next film, he’d jumped on board ready for the adventure.
    Ty’s forehead wrinkled. “And we’re going to do what?”
    “We’re going to expose relationship coaches as frauds. And we’re starting with Lacey Morgan,” Reed said. After meeting the charming charlatan, Ms. Morgan, his reluctance had changed into excitement, especially since Graham had promised to give Reed free rein on the next film.
    “Does Ms. Morgan know you’re about to take her down?”
    Reed smiled, feeling like the big bad wolf about to take down Little Red Riding Hood. “I’m meeting with her next week.”
    “Do you think she’ll agree to let us film her? Not many people want to watch their business butchered on the big screen.”
    Reed laughed, unable to keep the excitement of showing Ms. Morgan for the crook she was out of his voice. “I’m pitching it as a film to highlight the services relationship coaches provide. How they are helping couples find each other in a world where discovering the right person can be difficult.”
    Motivation flowed through his veins like a fine wine, making him drunk with anticipation.
    “And after we film her, you’ll add in the testaments about how relationship coaches harm people…how there are no regulations or specifications…how anyone can do this.” Ty nodded.
    “Bingo. And believe me, this chick will rock the film. She is one hot babe.”
    “Man, you and I both know your relationship with Blair would never have lasted,” Ty said, stating the obvious.
    “True. But Ms. Morgan’s seminar also ended Graham’s relationship. And he’s pissed.”
    Ty shook his head. “Great! Not one, but two rejected males. For the good of men everywhere, this woman’s going down!”
    Graham Turner, owner of Graham Productions, was not someone you wanted to provoke into putting a target on your back. The Twelve Steps of Dating had ended at step one for him. And he’d been madder than a kamikaze wasp. His sting was lightening
