Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,

Men are deceivers ever,

One foot in sea and one on shore,

To one thing constant never.

Dylan, she already knew, would never willingly deceive her, would never reel her in just for a laugh. But at his core he was a sailor. One whom she doubted would ever be as happy on land as he was out on the sea. Sailing was considered to be the great escape. And after all, wasn’t that when Dylan had turned to sailing—when his father had lost his job, times had been rough for his family, and it had become his passion, as well?

And yet, at the same time, how could she forget what he’d said yesterday during their second interview: “The magic of a night sea is one that can only be matched, and transcended, by one thing. By love.”

As if Mason knew that his mother was desperate for a distraction from thoughts that were careening from one end of her mind to the other, he woke up from his nap. After a quick diaper change, she gathered up a snack, a bottle, and a change of clothes and put them all in the bottom of his stroller.

“What do you say you and I head out to the park and let some fresh air clear our heads?”

Her son’s eyes lit up at the word park just as her phone rang. When she saw Dylan’s name on the screen, she knew she lit up in exactly the same way.

She should probably let it ring, give herself a little space to keep thinking things through. But from the first, Dylan had been a gift she hadn’t been able to deny herself. Or her son, whom she’d seen laugh more with him than with anyone else.

“I was sitting here missing you and Mason,” Dylan told her when she picked up, “so I thought I’d call.” Mason giggled as she handed him his stuffed giraffe and accidentally knocked him in the nose with its fluffy tail. “Your kid has the best laugh.”

“He really does, doesn’t he?”

“He gets it from his beautiful mother.”

It felt as though Dylan knew every secret code to unlock all the locked-down parts of her heart. And even when she knew she should make sure the two of them stuck to slow, it was the last thing she wanted—and not just because every kiss, every caress he gave her felt so good. Just being with Dylan made her happy.

Happier than she’d been in a very long time.

“We’re going to the playground if you want to take a little break.”

“The playground sounds like the perfect place to celebrate.”

“Celebrate?” She quickly guessed, “Are you done with the boat?”

“Adam helped me with a few finishing touches last night.”

“He’s going to be so thrilled when he finds out it’s his. When are you going to tell them all?”

“Soon. Once I return from my trip to Australia, everyone else should be back in Seattle again, too.”

“You’re going to Australia?” She realized, too late, that she sounded like a girlfriend trying to keep track of her boyfriend’s schedule.
