“Because I took your daughter out on the boat?”
“Because we have other plans for it.”
He raised an eyebrow. “We?”
“The Stewart family.” She turned back to Mack. “Get your things.”
“I’ll cycle home.”
“I’m putting your bike in the trunk.” She jerked her head toward the car. “Move!”

Jenna
Tension: mental or emotional strain
“That was incredible.” Greg lowered his head and kissed her.
“It was.” Jenna slid her arms round his neck. Did incredible sex increase your chances of conceiving? Please let them have made a baby.
Greg stroked her back. “Give me five minutes to recover and we’ll do it again.”
She was tempted, and not just because she wanted to get pregnant. “We don’t have time.”
He rolled over, taking her with him. “We don’t need long.”
“It’s going to take a couple of hours.”
“We could make it a quickie this time.”
“I’m talking about getting ready for dinner. My family is coming over. Had you forgotten?”
“Strangely enough the last thing I’m thinking about when you’re naked and writhing underneath me is your mother.”
Jenna grinned. “Good to know.” She glanced at the clock and shrieked with horror. “Is that really the time?” She sprang out of bed so fast she knocked Greg in the jaw. “We need to get going.”
He sat up, rubbing his jaw. “Why? Your mother is
coming to dinner, that’s all.”
“All? Greg, my mother is coming to dinner.” And my sister, she thought, whose house in London looked like something from a designer magazine.
“I don’t have time for a shower.” She pulled on her clothes, hopping round the room like a circus performer. “Get up, Greg. Why are you smiling?”
“Because I love your hair like that.”
“Like what?” She glanced in the mirror. “I look like I just got out of bed after having wild sex.”
“That’s my favorite hairstyle.”
Jenna grabbed a hairbrush but in the end gave up and scooped her hair into a ponytail. “Get dressed. I need help with the living room.”
“What’s wrong with the living room?”
Muttering protests, he pulled on jeans and a fresh shirt and followed her. “I get that your mother is coming to dinner. What I don’t get is why that necessitates a complete house makeover.” He watched as Jenna tugged cushions from a bag and ripped off the price tags. “Are those new cushions?”
“They are.”
