CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Choosing a dress for an undercover date had never been so difficult.

Not that Sheila had seemed to have any issues preparing for her date with Billie. She’d already finished getting dressed. Lily wanted to kick herself as she held up the strapless yellow cotton dress, still worrying over her choice as she regarded herself in the mirror.

“Too much of a don’t touch me vibe,” Sheila commented from her spot on the bed. “After Lieutenant O’Connor routed me soundly today with the photos, we need a dress that will have him either swallowing his tongue—”

“If he does that, he can’t give us any info,” Lily pointed out, tossing the dress aside onto a spare corner chair.

“Fine.” Sheila walked over to her large closet filled with her limited selection of eight summer dresses, all of which had been under ten dollars at the local discount store. “This one. He’ll be hot for you, but it’ll also show off your sweet, nurturing side.”

She’d liked the celery-green shimmery dress the moment she’d spotted it on the end-of-summer sale rack. It hugged her average bodice with its scoop neckline before flaring out flirtingly and stopping just above her knees. Likely no one had gone for it because it wasn’t exactly a casual hang on the beach dress. The dress was a mix of cotton, spandex, and something else that made it a dress-up or dress-down kind of outfit, depending on the right shoes, hair, and makeup.

“We’re walking on the beach, so I’ll have to carry the sandals I was thinking of,” she commented, crossing to her bathroom to change into it.

“You’re wearing those fuck-me pumps, right?” Sheila asked, following her.

Lily slanted her a look. “Hey, I’m changing in here.”

“Call me a voyeur.” She laughed, fluffing her already blown-out sexy wavy beach hair. “Plus, I have the same parts. Nothing to see here. I’m just glad we don’t have to figure out how to carry a gun in these dresses. I don’t think Thunderwear would get the job done.”

Lily snorted as she pulled on her dress. “I was glad Buck didn’t ask me directly if I’d packed mine. On the last undercover op, he told me to keep it in the car since it’s not exactly something you can buy at the local clothing store.”

“It reminds me of Mormon underwear,” Sheila commented. “Don’t ask.”

Shoulders shaking from silent laughter, Lily pulled a few locks of hair off her face and secured them with a tiny clip. “Good?”

Sheila studied her like she was crashing for a final exam at Quantico. “Yeah. He’ll want your hair blowing in the ocean breeze. You aren’t going to want it getting stuck in your lip gloss. Because it is so a come hither, big boy lipstick kind of night.”

“Oh, Sheila, where do you come up with things like that?” she asked, reaching for her mascara.

“Rap mostly. It’s the most honest assessment of the male mind in my opinion. The entire lexicon is like the FBI manual set to music. But really,
