But Maia doesn’t say anything. Instead, she’s staring at the bed. The only bed.

Shit. I probably should’ve mentioned that…

“Uh, Rhett, there’s only one bed.” She looks around. There isn’t any other furniture that could be used for sleeping, only a dresser, two nightstands, and a small table with a couple of chairs.

That was the one slight downside to having a room with a hot tub. We had to give up the two queen beds.

“I’ll sleep in the hot tub. It’s all good.”

Maia laughs. “Yeah, like that’ll be comfortable. We’ll just build a pillow wall.”

“I’m sorry. I should’ve told you there was only the king bed option for rooms with a hot tub. I was just so excited to show you that?—”

“Shh. It’s fine. I’d rather have this room.” She grabs her bikini from the bed and hurries to the bathroom. Before she closes the door, she sends me a look that goes straight to my dick.

It was an innocent look, but my mind certainly didn’t take it that way.

Shut up, dude. The last thing you need is a huge boner when you walk in there.

I quickly change and wait for her to open the door. When she does, I swallow hard and resist the urge to scan her body. It’s a new bikini, not one I’ve seen her wear back in Sierra Cove anyway, which makes this a hell of a lot harder. But with the way my dick is twitching right now, I know if I let myself look, it’ll be an instant hard-on.

I direct my attention to the faucet and walk past her without a word. I shut the water off and turn on the whirlpool jets. I also look at the selection of bubble bath and bath bombs, picking one out. “Lavender okay?” I ask as I watch her dip her toe in from the corner of my eye.

Every part of me screams, yearns, aches to sneak one glance at her. I’ve seen her in a bikini a million times before. What makes tonight different?

Maybe it’s all the champagne, or maybe it’s the simple fact that I’m finding her more and more attractive as time goes on, and it’s getting hard to ignore. Then she throws me for a loop and puts on the sexiest red bathing suit. It’s held together by string, for fuck’s sake.

“Oh my God, Rhett,” Maia says as moan slips from her lips. “This is fucking heaven.” She leans back and closes her eyes.

Fuckkkk.

Is that how she would sound if I made her unravel beneath me?

My dick thickens. Shit, I need to get in the water before she sees.

I slip inside, but as soon as I sit down opposite her, our legs brush against one another, and my body reacts by sending more blood to my damn dick.

“Mmm,” Maia moans again, her eyes remaining closed.

I stare at her perfect face, her plump red lips, and her flushed cheeks. Without thinking, I slide over to her side and squeeze in beside her.

She opens her eyes and laughs up at me. Even that sound turns me on.

I can’t take it anymore.

I want to taste her.

I need to taste her.

So I do.

And it’s just like I imagined—fireworks.

Maia breaks away, her eyes bulging out of her head. “But Rhett, I thought you said…”

“What’s life without taking risks?” I whisper against her delicious lips.
