Chapter Eight

The Island Brewing Company’s tasting room was packed. Surprising considering they didn’t sell food. A few people had their kids playing outside, while the adults sat at tables under bright blue umbrellas. Inside, the décor matched the blue and yellow-orange of the brewery’s logo. The walls featured pieces from local artists.

Nora liked the relaxed vibe immediately. She snagged a recently vacated table for them outside while Ben waded through the throng at the bar to place their orders.

“Is someone using this?” A middle-aged woman grabbed the chair across from her.

“Yes!” Nora answered quickly before the lady snatched Ben’s seat. She pointed toward his back. “The guy in the black shirt is getting our drinks.”

The older woman turned to look, letting go of the chair. Her lips pursed and a wicked twinkle filled her gaze. “Nice tush. Looks muffiny and bitable.”

Nora winked. “It is.”

“Have fun with that. I know I would.” Chortling, the lady wandered off to find another empty seat to steal.

Sucking in her cheeks to keep from laughing, she waved when Ben glanced over his shoulder at her. Yep, he really did have a muffiny butt.

After they’d finished dinner, he’d insisted they walk off the substantial meal and take a stroll up Linden Avenue away from the beach. There were a bunch of cute stores, from coffee shops to toy stores, art galleries to vintage clothing boutiques.

They’d had dessert at Crushcakes & Café because she had a deep, deep weakness for red velvet and this place had giant cupcakes painted on the wall. She couldn’t resist. Ben opted for strawberry, and the orgasmic groan he’d given when he’d bit into his cake reminded her of something else she was powerless to resist. If she had any brains at all, she’d never have gone for a second round with him this morning, or be considering a third tonight.

Willpower? What willpower?

The bottom line was, she had no idea what she was doing with him. She had no idea how he really felt about her, and her own feelings seemed to be in flux. Was this just sex? Was he just fulfilling teen fantasies? Was that okay with her and she should just go with it until they got home? Her heart squeezed painfully at the idea of this thing ending. Sure, they bickered like an old married couple, but…he also made her laugh when he wasn’t pissing her off. And he’d been an amazing partner in crime on this road trip from hell.

Ben mixed her up, and every instinct told her to cut things off because this insanity couldn’t be a good thing. Except…

Except she didn’t want to.

If that wasn’t the definition of crazy, she didn’t know what was. And that scared her because the craziest person in her life was her mother, and the last thing Nora wanted was to end up like her mom. She’d always managed to steer clear of any man that could turn her into the twitterpated idiot Mom became when she fell for a new guy.
