“Ready.” She considered the word.
Ready indicated it was only a matter of time. Linus’s words indicated that the time would never arrive. That was good, wasn’t it? She didn’t want the full truth, did she? She thought she didn’t before...and now—
“Tough break.”
Paula whirled to find Linus standing just a few feet behind her. His molten chocolate stare appeared more vibrant against the tropical morning sun as he, too, stared at the Idella disappearing around a bend in the bay.

“Wonder what would’ve given them that idea.”
Linus barely shrugged in response. Paula rolled her eyes as she resumed her study of the quiet waters.
“If you’re bummed about it,” he said, moving closer, “I’m sure we could arrange something.”
The offer made Paula smile. “I’m sure we could.” She averted her face so he couldn’t see her lashes flutter when he moved close to cup her hips.
“I’m not going to bed with you, L.” She swallowed around the ball of need suddenly occupying her throat.
“That’s the great thing about a place like this.” He didn’t seem discouraged by her decision. “There are all sorts of places we could substitute for a bed.”
