Somehow she and Sam had managed to barely speak to each other for most of the week, without either Olivia or JD appearing to notice. Of course, Olivia was all caught up in her work at Sam’s office and JD’s attention was focused on the plans for redecorating his room. A mural artist was supposed to come later that afternoon and begin turning his wall into a pirate’s paradise. His new furniture—including the pirate ship bed—was on standby to be delivered, and the installers were there at the moment putting in the wide plank flooring that approximated the wooden decking on a pirate ship.

Tonight, JD was planning to camp out in the master suite with her and Sam. She wondered how Sam would deal with that, since he’d spent every night this week working late in his study and falling asleep on the couch.

The day flew by as she and JD went from store to store, searching for anything pirate-themed. It would have been easier if she’d gone with Sam’s suggestion and hired an interior designer. But she thought it was more important to let JD take an active role in decorating his room. Sam had a lot to learn about the things that mattered to a little boy. Camilla smiled just thinking about JD’s excitement when they stumbled across a framed poster from a swashbuckling movie in the vintage memorabilia store, equaled only by his joy when he found another set of action figures to add to his collection.

She wanted him to feel like he belonged, and she was determined not to let the angry emotions that always seemed to erupt between her and Sam spill over and affect JD’s relationship with his father. They got back home just after six, and she was surprised to see Sam’s car already in the driveway.

Sam was out on the terrace, grilling thick pieces of salmon. Olivia was in the kitchen, getting out plates and silverware to take onto the terrace. A container of potato salad sat on the counter, and there were ears of corn cooking on a huge pot on the stove. There was a large box with the name of her favorite local pastry company on the counter as well.

“Are we celebrating?” Camilla asked as JD barreled out into the back, looking for Sam.

“Sam settled a big case today, so we came home early. You guys didn’t eat yet, did you?”

“No.” Camilla shook her head. The scent of grilled salmon came wafting in from the terrace and she realized she was starved. It would be the first time the four of them had sat down to a meal together all week, and she could only hope that JD would keep up
