Paris

We had a situation.

I don’t mean like the time my boob tape decided to give way at my friend Asher’s wedding, and I came perilously close to a nip slip. The fact that it was her father who had pointed it out to me was still mortifying.

That had been bad.

This. This was worse. This was a full-blown crisis.

I was falling for Joe. Hard.

I was also falling for this town. I’d never imagined for a second I would even tolerate the cold, let alone enjoy it, and yet tonight… Joe had shown me the beauty of snow and a quiet country winter night.

Then he’d brought me home and poured me a glass of red wine while he’d told me to wait downstairs for five minutes. When I’d gone up, I found him lighting candles on the countertop, a bubble bath drawn.

“When you live in a cold weather state, there is only one way to warm up before bed,” he’d said. “A nice, hot bubble bath.”

The man was a born romantic, and I didn’t think he even realized it. “Oh, really? That does seem wise.” I wasn’t all that cold anymore, but I was not going to object to a soak in a deep tub. “Are you joining me?”

“Hell, yeah. This tub is cast iron. It’s deep, and it holds heat for hours.”

Perfect. “Then I guess there’s only one thing to do now. Strip. You first.”

Joe needed no more encouragement than that. He was a good-looking muscular guy and clearly comfortable in his own skin. He had his sweatshirt and T-shirt over his head in record time. Then he unzipped his jeans and took them down. “Done. Your turn.”

“Everything off,” I said, amused by his enthusiasm. “You’re not finished yet.”

He eyed me. “This isn’t a trick, is it? Like I get naked, and then you leave?”

That made me laugh. “Why would I do that? I’d never leave you.”

At the same moment, we both realized what I had said. I was leaving him. In a matter of days. His nostrils flared. My mouth fell open to say something. What, I didn’t know. But to explain somehow. “Joe…”

“Don’t,” he said, and his voice was low, rough. “Don’t apologize or try to explain or let me down easy. You were always upfront with me.”

He was right. There wasn’t really anything to say. If anyone had broken the rules we’d established, it was me by falling for him. Not that he needed to know that. So I did the best thing I could under the circumstances. I peeled my sweater off and tossed it onto the floor.

Slowly, seductively, I stripped off the rest of my clothes, shimmying out of my jeans in a way that had him growling and reaching for me. “Patience,” I told him as I kicked the pants away.

When I turned and bent over the tub, he said, “Paris. Fuck. What are you doing?”

Giving him a hell of a view. “Testing the temperature.” I dipped a hand in and scooped up some bubbles. I turned and told him, “It feels perfect.
