Chapter Seven

Juliette spent the week beginning to organize the cleanup at the house Phoebe assigned her. She contacted the declutter company and spoke to the sellers, who wanted her there to oversee things. Realizing how busy this job would keep her, she gave notice at the coffee shop, which Grace took well, probably because Juliette wasn’t exactly her fastest, best employee. She had another week left of work there and that was fine with her.

She hadn’t seen Braden this week, giving him space to deal with his dad, but they’d made plans to get together at the beach when she was dog sitting for her sister this weekend. Lucy was watching Jonathan, and Braden felt comfortable taking time for himself with her around for his father.

Juliette slipped into a bikini and strode out onto the deck of Halley’s house, where Braden waited for her. Monty was a good dog who behaved off leash and just needed TLC, feedings, and attention. He pitter-pattered, trailing along, always underfoot in a good way. She liked the company and she really loved her sister’s home.

Braden stood leaning against the railing, looking over the ocean. His broad back and muscles tapered into his leaner waist, tempting her. Drawing a breath, she stepped toward him, wrapping her arms around his waist and resting her body against his warm skin.

He groaned as she aligned herself with him, wrapping his arms around hers. “It’s beautiful here.”

She nodded into his back, inhaling his masculine scent, her body tightening as she hugged him. “I like my view more.” She nuzzled her nose into his skin.

He laughed and turned, lifting her into his arms. She wrapped her legs around him for purchase, arms winding around his neck.

“Check you out in that sexy bikini.” He skimmed his hands along her sides, her nipples puckering at the sensual touch, and she brushed her lips over his.

He delved into her mouth, tongue dueling with hers, kissing her under the hot morning sun. Their mouths melded as they lazily made out, learning each other’s touch and taste, the soft ocean breeze blowing around them.

Without warning, he broke the kiss and released her, lowering her to her feet, and she felt every inch of his muscles and hard erection against her stomach until her feet touched the ground.

Swallowing a groan, she looked up at him. “Why stop?”

“Because you had a list of things you wanted to do and dipping your toes in the water was one of them. Skinny-dipping is going to have to wait until nighttime, when no one can sneak a peek,” he muttered possessively. “But right now we’re going down to the beach. Right, Monty?” he asked the dog who’d been sleeping at their feet.

“Woof!” The pup jumped up at the sound of his name.

“Come on.” Braden grasped her hand, and the three of them walked down the stairs of the deck barefoot, stepping into the warm sand leading toward the ocean.

At the water’s edge, she sat down so the water only came up as far as her feet, the warm waves cascading over her bare toes, just as she’d wanted.
