he first thing Shawna did when she walked over onto the beach was peel out of her oversized sweater, even though the air was chilly. Under her bulky sweater she wore a magenta-and-turquoise bikini top. Christy could tell it was thickly padded to make Shawna look like she had more on top than she really did.

The padding, the top’s bright colors, and her hip-hugger shorts made her the center of attention for the five guys who had gathered down by the water.

“It’s still pretty cold, don’t you think?” Christy hoped Shawna would put her sweater back on. Not just for the chill factor but as a kindness to the guys who didn’t need to have her parading her blossoming young body around in front of them.

“It doesn’t feel cold to me,” Shawna said. “The beaches in the Northwest where I live are much colder than this. I’m ready to go in the water.” She unsnapped her shorts and shimmied out of them. The bottom of her bikini covered her in theory, but when she walked, she left very little to the imagination.

Christy tried to think fast.

Todd was focused on untangling the ankle strap on his surfboard and hadn’t noticed Shawna. The other guys seemed to be doing their best to not take in a full view of Shawna. Two of them were already heading toward the water.

“How about if we let the guys go out by themselves now?” Christy suggested. “Then maybe Todd could take you out in a little while.”

Shawna stood on the blanket with her legs slightly apart and her hands on her hips. Her posture reminded Christy of cheerleading poses she had learned when she was trying out in high school. Shawna didn’t look like a cheerleader, though. She was more of a female version of Peter Pan.

“I’m really looking forward to learning how to surf.” Shawna’s gaze was fixed on Brennan. “Whichever one of you guys wants to teach me is fine with me.”

“Later.” Todd grinned at Christy and headed for the water with his newest surfboard under his arm. It was his trademark color of orange.

Brennan quickly fell into step with Todd. The two of them hustled down to the water and dove right in. Christy knew that Todd liked to feel the water all at once whenever he got in the ocean, and that’s why he went in headfirst and came bobbing up like a dolphin.

As Christy watched him, she felt a ruffle of sadness. When he popped up out of the water and
