He’s taking me to the beach. Jake Whitmore is taking me, Kacey Albright, to the beach. This won’t be the first time he’s taken me, but before Reilly and other people were always there. He would never have taken me alone.

It didn’t matter back then that other people were around. He was the only thing I could focus on. Reilly would try to get me to walk up and down the beach with her in the hopes of catching the eye of some guy.

Grudgingly, I’d go but my attention was never in the direction she pointed or whispered. No, it was always only Jake for me.

He liked to surf and I could spend hours watching him do it.

“When was the last time you surfed?” I ask, wondering if I’d get a chance to watch him again.

“It’s been years,” he replies.

“How come?” I ask.

“It wasn’t an intentional thing to stop. There were more important things that took up my time.”

“When I was younger, watching you surf was one of my favorite things,” I admit.

“I remember that.”

“Did my crush ever annoy you?”

“It never annoyed me until you were old enough to be a temptation I couldn’t risk giving in to. That was annoying.”

“How so?” I press.

“You still liked me and I could no longer ignore the fact that I was attracted to you. Still, I knew it would have been wrong to start anything. I had to watch other guys try to get your attention, which sucked, knowing that you wanted me but I couldn’t have you. There were nights it felt like torture.”

“Would it have truly been such a bad thing for me to have known you liked me back?”

He doesn’t answer me while he parks. He still doesn’t say one word as he kills the engine and gets out of the Jeep.

Did he hear my question?

He starts heading toward the back. Figuring I might as well help, I get out as well. A squeak escapes me as he grabs me. My door is closed and I’m lifted up till my back is pressed to it as Jake stands between my legs. His mouth is on mine, his long strong fingers on my ass holding me up while the rest of his hard body presses against me.

I’m lost in the kiss. That raging inferno that only he controls. My arms are wrapped around his neck as my tongue tangles with his.

There is nothing else. There is only him.

And then he pulls his mouth from mine. We’re both out of breath. As one, our chests heave as we struggle to allow air the right to move back into our bodies.

There isn’t a cloud in the sky. Nothing can dull the green of his eyes or the lust so clearly in them. As the world after his kiss begins to reemerge around me, my senses are bombarded. The heat of his hands scorches me through the thin fabric of my dress.

There’s tension in each of his fingers as they clutch me. It’s as if even his knuckles can’t hide their desire.
