“Take this.” I hand her my black card, and she walks away.

Dani furrows her brow. “You don’t want to see the check first?”

“I hate the whole check ritual at restaurants.” She raises her eyebrows. “Judging me?”

“Time is money, I guess.”

“It’s how I’m wired.” Our eyes lock. When was the last time I felt this good at the end of a dinner date? When was the last time I was even on a dinner date? I don’t want the night to end. “What do you think about a walk along the beach?” I ask, standing after signing the check, motioning for her to go ahead of me.

“The beach closed at six, but I know how to sneak in,” she says confidently.

“Always breaking in,” I whisper, taking a quick handful of her ass and following Dani out of the restaurant. “Let’s do it.”

Interlacing our fingers, we walk down the sidewalk of the tourist town. “Thanks for being a great dinner date,” I say, smiling down at her. Even with a little heel, she’s so much shorter than me. It’s cute.

“You’re not so bad yourself,” she teases, nudging her shoulder into me.

As we continue walking, I like how fun this is—more fun than I anticipated.

“Dani Sommer. You’re going to break my heart, aren’t you?”

She squints at me before laughing. “You’re going to fall in love with your fuckbuddy?”

I’m getting ahead of myself.I need to stay single after the divorce. “I’ve never been so grateful for breaking and entering.” I grab another quick handful of her ass.

“You’re lucky you look the way you do.” Dani pulls me down by the neck, planting a firm kiss on my lips. I wrap my arms around her, lifting her as I slide my tongue into her mouth.When was the last time I made out on a sidewalk?We kiss deeply until I pull away for air.

“Let’s find a dark spot on the beach,” I whisper.

Dani guides me to the side of a marina building. I hesitate as she pulls me behind the garbage cans.

“This isn’t the dark spot I had in mind.”

She giggles before pushing open a metal gate behind the cans. “They never lock this one,” she says, glancing back at me.

I follow her through and onto the sandy beach. We kick off our shoes and walk along the water’s edge in silence. She’s looking out at the lake, and I’m content admiring her.

She gets a devilish look in her eyes and grabs my hand, pulling me toward the lifeguard stand. We nearly run up the wooden steps.

“Sit between my legs,” I say, flashing her a heated stare. With my back resting against the door of the lifeguard standand Dani nestled between my legs, we cuddle while overlooking the lake. I place small kiss after small kiss along the back of her neck. We’re concealed well enough, but my mind drifts to more reckless ideas—hot, dangerous ones. My fingers have a mind of their own, gliding teasingly along her legs.No one can see us.I glance around the beach, still feeling hesitant to go any further.

“I’m wet,” she whispers, clearly on the same wavelength as me.

“Already?” I flirt, sliding her dress up to cup her. “Bad girl,” I growl, feeling how soaked her panties are. “You sure?” I whisper in her ear, seeking her approval before continuing. She nods, tipping her head back.

Crashing my lips into hers, I slide two fingers beneath her panties.

“Dripping.” Heat surges to my cock as I slowly finger her. I press open-mouthed kisses along her neck, my tongue gliding over her soft skin. Her breath catches, and I squeeze her hip to keep her from squirming away. “I’m addicted to you,” I whisper, picking up the pace. My fingers slide deeper, moving in and out.

“I need you inside me,” she pants. My first instinct is to say no. Fingering her in public is one thing, but sex? That’s more reckless than I need to be right now.

“We don’t have a condom.”

“You’re the only one I’m sleeping with.”

“You’re a bad influence on me.” My lust winning over my better judgment. “We can’t make this a habit.”

Dani straddles me, crashing her lips into mine as she quickly unbuckles my belt and undoes my jeans. “Sex without a condom or sex in public?” She pulls out my cock and wastes no time sitting on it.
