He shrugged. “Or maybe you’ll decide you prefer seafood after all and go back to women.” The elevator opened on the third floor, and they got out. He looked around. “I think our room should be this way.”

It was obvious Tom considered the conversation over, and Jack was too stunned to say another word.
