Chapter 13

Sleeping with Greg hadn’t changed anything. She still wanted Sam. She realized this as he stood on his verandah, stroking his hand across his scalp and making her stomach lurch. Every time he moved his arm, his grey T-shirt would lift and reveal an inch of perfectly toned brown skin. She couldn’t help staring at the line of dark hair that snaked down to the waistband of his jeans. It made her want to lick her lips.

JD was sitting in one of the verandah chairs, leg on a stool, refusing to look up from his Nintendo DS.

Grace pulled herself together and stared at Sam’s bare feet instead. They too were brown, and his nails were perfectly trimmed and a healthy pink. He even had sexy feet.

“How’s the leg?” she asked JD, dragging her attention away from his brother. “Can you put weight on it yet?”

“No,” he said grumpily, thumbs moving.

“The Doctor says another week,” Sam said. “It can’t come quick enough,” he added, grimacing at Grace over JD’s head. “I need to get back to the shop full time. Can’t trust my staff to keep it going on their own.”

“Can't your Grandparents help?” she asked.

“They do what they can, but I can’t expect too much out of them at their age.” Sam dug his hands into his pockets and looked out over the dunes to the sea. He was lonely, Grace suddenly realized with a pang.

“Why don’t you stay for dinner?” he eventually asked. “I’m firing up the barbeque.”

“Sam’s burgers are awesome,” JD said without looking up.

“OK,” Grace said knowing she shouldn’t, but what could happen with JD as a chaperone?
