Chapter Fourteen

She failed.

Holly most definitely had thought of Zack during her date with Keith last night.

She’d also thought of storage rooms.

A date that, all in all, had gone really well. Keith had been charming and funny, and he was just flat-out cute.

And he’d kissed her.

One good-night kiss as they’d sat in his pickup in front of the house.

It hadn’t set off blasting fireworks or anything, but it had been pleasant. Given how long it had been since she’d been kissed, she’d take pleasant.

The only problem was, she’d thought about Zack while Keith’s mouth had been on hers.

Not intentionally, but she hadn’t been able to keep from wondering what a kiss from him would be like.

Would it be fireworks?

Better than Keith’s?

Or maybe she was just being impatient. Probably with practice, she and Keith could reach fireworks.

At least sparklers.

She groaned under her breath as she parked the quad in the shed and stepped from the building. Should a person have to work for sparklers?

She stretched her neck and shoulders, working out the kinks from where she’d been hunched over her worktable all day, then pulled the ponytail from her hair and dug her fingers into her scalp. She was exhausted, drained, and all kinds of thrilled. Her new piece might just turn out to be her best work yet.

It had kept her busy late into the afternoon yet again.

“Where do you go on that thing all the time?”

She jumped, letting out a high-pitched squeak and pressing her hand to her racing heart. It was Zack. She’d stepped one foot up on the steps of the back deck, and hadn’t seen him sitting in the far corner. He was stretched out on a lounge chair with a book in his hand, and he was wearing another yummy pair of jeans, a black pullover, and no shoes. For some reason, she couldn’t look away from his bare feet.

The whole pose just seemed . . . erotic. As if he were stretched out naked instead of fully clothed.

Or maybe that was just how she wanted him to be.

She also wanted him to kiss her. Right then. Right there.

She wanted to see if there were fireworks.

Pulling her gaze away, she managed to finish climbing the steps, all while doing her best to remain casual. As if she hadn’t been thinking about his mouth on hers since late last night.

Or days before that.

“You don’t strike me as the lounge-around-and-read-a-book type,” she said as she headed his way. The activity seemed too slow for him.

He held up the hardback. It was a copy of one of the latest best-selling thrillers. “Larissa recommended it. Figured since I’m supposed to be on vacation, I might as well give it a try.”

That silly little jealousy thing reared its head again. The librarian’s name sure slid easily off his tongue.

“Good for you,” she muttered. She dropped into the chair next to his and stretched out her feet. She was bone tired. “I’d heard you were spotted at the library again today.”

He lifted a brow.
