Eventually, Fitz managed to tear his attention from Lilah long enough to order two beers. Dark, because anything else smacked of incivility.

Then he had to seriously consider dropping to his knees to propose to the woman when she took a sip and said, “Wow, this is really good.”

“You drink dark beer?” Quelle surprise. And that was saying something considering basically everything about Lilah Houston had knocked him upside the head from the moment she’d opened the door.

“Not until today. But I like it.” Her dark eyes peeked out from under long and lush lashes, and he couldn’t stop imagining what she’d look like flushed with arousal.

To be fair, she’d started it with all the talk about tasting her, which immediately planted a fair amount of longing in a place that would be very difficult to dislodge. Plus his gut was screaming Red Hot Virgin Alert, or at least close enough to it that she needed someone—him—to introduce her to everything. Pretty much nothing else was getting through the thick layer of awareness that had dropped over him.

Just as he was about to dive into a very long conversation about all of the ways she could have responded to his taste-test-volunteer comment, Jack and Thora picked that inopportune moment to join them.

Fitz bit back the long string of curses.

“You started the party without us?” Jack’s arm draped possessively around Thora’s waist, which gave a whole new meaning to the concept friends with benefits.

She still looked a little worse for wear, so maybe the arm was strictly to keep the woman off the ground. But he didn’t think so. After getting a text proclaiming that Thora was sick, Jack had almost torn an ACL in his haste to scramble off the boat he’d piloted from Freeport to Duchess Island.

“You must be Thora,” Fitz said with a pointed glance at Jack, who rolled his eyes and passed out the intros. Which was only fair since he was the linchpin of this operation.

“Fitz? Is that short for something?” Lilah asked as if it had just occurred to her to wonder.

“Fitzhugh,” he supplied readily. “It beats all of the other nicknames I’ve been given over the years.”

“Like what?” Lilah managed to transform that into a real question instead of small talk, which he appreciated in the face of the odd circumstance of suddenly feeling like a third wheel from the moment Jack had gotten his hands on his tawny-haired friend.

Jack snickered. “Chipmunk is my favorite.”

“And Jackass is my favorite of yours,” he shot back before his so-called friend served up Fitz’s first name on a platter in explanation. Theodore was a fine name for a president, and/or a fat chipmunk, but not for a SEAL. The guys had oh so much fun with it.

“I’ve never had a nickname,” Lilah confessed so forlornly that Fitz instantly started thinking up a few. Luscious Lilah was leading the pack, and there was no doubt that if he actually got her naked and breathless he could think of a few more.
