I stirred the guacamole until it was completely smooth, whipping at the mixture with the wooden spoon. You might not know I had started with whole avocados.

It didn’t take long after I moved in for Grey and I to settle into a sunset routine: drinks and appetizers on the deck.

I loved this time of day, watching the beachcombers search for treasures, runners getting in the last workout of the day, the sun casting orange beams off the waves. It was beautiful and peaceful.

I left the bowl of dip on the side table on the deck and walked to the fridge to grab two beers. Grey texted that he would be home in five minutes. My stomach was in knots. How was I going to tell him that I had met his supposed uncle today? I decided to grab a third beer. I chugged the first half of the beer, forgetting I usually liked to stick a lime in the top.

“Eden, you home?” I heard Grey call from the other end of the house. I winced and the knots in my stomach started to flip.

“Out here!” I finished the beer, before placing the empty bottle next to me, out of Grey’s view.

He walked out onto the deck. “It took longer than I thought to get that door in place.” He sank into the open lounge chair. We didn’t have proper patio furniture. I had picked up beach chairs at Renee’s shop. They worked for now.

I handed him the beer. “Here you go.”

“Thanks.” He twisted off the cap and took a few chugs. “Damn, it’s a beautiful afternoon.” He surveyed the beach in front of us. “My favorites: chips, dip, beer, and you.” He smiled. “It doesn’t get better than this.”

I could just blurt it out. I could say, “Hey, met this guy today who says he is your uncle.” Or, I could slide him the business card and tell him to call Mason and find out for himself, or what if I shredded the damn card and threw it in the waves? That plan would come back to bite me in the ass.

He looked happy, relaxed, and I was getting ready to blow that all to hell.

“Grey?”

“Mmm-hmm?” His eyes closed, and I thought he must be taking in the sounds of the waves and gulls.

“I have something I need to talk to you about.” I turned in my chaise so I was lying on my side facing him.

“What’s up, darlin’? Did you find a couch you like?”

I winced. “No, it’s not house-related.”

He opened one eye at a time and looked at me from the side. “Go on. What is it?”

I held my breath. Get it together, Eden. I coaxed the words from my mouth. “I met someone at the office today.” I pulled the business card from my front pocket. “He introduced himself as Mason Lachlan. He says he’s your uncle.”

Grey sat up, throwing his feet on the wooden deck planks. “What are you talking about?” He snatched the card from my hand.
