EXCERPT:

He led me down to the water, and we stood on the dock. “We're going swimming.”

I gaped at him. “Are you crazy?”

“It's hot out.”

“So?”

“So when it's hot out, you go swimming.” He grinned and then, like it was nothing, he reached down and pulled off his shirt. His arms were tan and cut, his chest chiseled and smooth. His six pack flexed as he tossed his shirt onto the dock, and I started to feel a little dizzy.

“I'm not going in the water.”

“Why not?”

“Because it's illegal!”

He grinned. “You've never done anything illegal before?”

“Not really.”

“Well, let me tell you a secret about doing things that are illegal.” He motioned me toward him, and I took a tiny step. I didn't trust myself to be close to him. There was an air of excitement and anticipation thrumming below the surface of our interactions, and I didn't know what he was going to do �" kiss me? Throw me in the water? It was scary and wonderful at the same time.

“Closer,” he said, teasing.

I moved closer.

He rolled his eyes, then closed the gap between us, leaning down so he could whisper in my ear. “Ready for the secret?” His breath tickled the skin of my neck, and it was so warm it made the summer night air feel cold. A shiver skittered down my spine.

“Ready,” I breathed.

“Things are only illegal if you get caught. And I never get caught.”
