“If we get caught taking this boat out, I’m going to get fired.” Tess looked back up the hill to the lodge. The big porch was crowded with guests enjoying the sunset, but no one seemed to be paying them any attention.

“Don’t worry,” Clay said, “I’ll have you back before anybody even knows we’re gone. I brought sandwiches. We’ll have dinner on the island. There’s supposed to be a meteor shower tonight. And a full moon. It’ll be great.”

“Well, Mr. Harris did say we were free to use the boats if none of the guests were using them. So I guess technically it’s all right.”

“See? Nothing to get bent out of shape about.” Clay held out her hand. “Come on. Climb in.”

Tess settled in the bow of the outboard while Clay maneuvered them away from the dock. Clay rowed them out twenty or thirty feet from shore and started the motor. The outboard was not that large, and with plenty of boats still on the water, no one was likely to notice the sound of their engine. Tess turned her face to the wind and stopped worrying.

Soon they were bouncing over the waves as the sun sank lower, headed for one of the many uninhabited islands that dotted the lake. A few minutes later, they pulled up along a narrow strip of sand, and Clay tied the boat to a tree. She helped Tess climb out of the boat, and they found a clear spot under the pines to spread out their blanket.

“Hungry?” Clay asked.

Tess stretched out on her back, watching the sky turn pink, then red, then deep purple. “Not just yet. It’s so beautiful I just want to look.”

Clay lay beside her and propped her head on her hand. “Yes. Gorgeous.”

Tess smiled, the skin at her throat warming under Clay’s gaze. Clay had been looking at her that way a lot lately—like she was special. And sexy. Clay didn’t have to say anything to make her feel that way—she just had to look at her with eyes that grew dark and deep. Tess touched Clay’s face. “You’re not looking at the sunset.”

“I know.” Clay’s grin faltered as she drew a strand of Tess’s hair through her fingers. “I’ve seen lots of beautiful sunsets, but I’ve never seen a girl as beautiful as you.”

“You know,” Tess said softly, brushing her fingers over Clay’s shoulder, “it seems like I’ve known you for a lot longer than just a couple of months.”

“It feels like you’re the only one who knows me,” Clay whispered, and she kissed her.

Tess had been waiting for this moment, wondering what she would do, how she would feel, forever, it seemed. To be alone with Clay, wanting to touch her, having Clay touch her. No one ever had. She wasn’t scared, wasn’t nervous—well, not too much. Everything about being with Clay felt right. Clay was right—they knew each other.

Tess tugged at the back of Clay’s T-shirt and pulled it out of her jeans. Clay’s skin was hot, soft and smooth.
