The beautiful blonde, who wore an emerald-green satin push-up bra and matching lace panties, stretched on her belly on the white duvet—heels in the air, lips red and pouty.

Casey Sullivan had one of the best smiles I had ever photographed. The woman also knew how to give “come fuck me” eyes to the camera. She was thinking of her husband, Nate, so she said it was easy to gaze at the lens that way—like she loved him and wanted him at the same damn time. We were finishing up the last series of shots at the boudoir studio space.

Afterward, I showed her some of the pictures on the back of the camera.

Casey shrugged into a robe and peered at the images, and she squealed in delight as we flipped through the frames. “These are amazing,” she said, then ran her hand over the outline of her belly. “You can’t tell I had a baby six months ago.”

I shook my head. “You look radiant and beautiful. The camera loves you because you’re so happy and in love.”

Casey met my eyes. “You can see all that from how I look at the camera?”

“Of course. It’s in your eyes. Everything is.”

Casey narrowed hers and studied me. “Hmm. What’s in yours, then?” she asked playfully.

A red flush crept across my cheeks.

Sex, hot sex, and more sex. Dinners, days, sleepless nights. Idle chats, deep conversations, sweet nothings, and so much coming together. The last two days and nights in Manhattan had passed in a blissful blur. I’d canceled my hotel room and stayed with Michael. Yesterday, I’d finished my shoot for Veronica’s while Michael had worked with clients, and last night we’d gone to dinner and a club. And there had been hours when we hadn’t left the room at all. New York with Michael was a great escape from the past and the present.

The only trouble was it almost seemed too good to be true. Too deep, too quick, too intense. I couldn’t believe we were here after all this time, and I couldn’t help the part of myself that was scared, after all I’d been through, all we’d been through, to feel so much so fast.

“You’re happy too.” The declaration came from Casey, and my heart skittered.

“Of course I’m happy,” I said in my best cheery tone, keeping things businesslike. “I love what I do.”

“But I can see a sadness in your eyes too. Is something holding you back from truly being happy?” Casey pressed.

I swallowed and fiddled with my camera. The woman was too observant—that was supposed to be my job. I didn’t answer.

“If something holds you back from your happiness, you should try to move through it,” Casey said softly.

I looked up, my client’s gentle words threading into me. “Spoken from experience?”

“Sort of. I had to get over my fear that my husband and I would risk our friendship if we became more.”

“And you didn’t, clearly.”

“We didn’t, but we had to face it and take a leap of faith. I think whatever is making you sad, you should face it,” she said wisely.
