since I have no idea how to sail and would probably flip the Hobie and drown myself, I figured I’d better not take a chance.”
    “Fair dinkum? You wanna go sailing with me?” He turned his hand palm up, and Sienna belatedly realized she’d forgotten to move her arm away. Before she could motivate herself to do just that, Josh clasped her hand in his.
    She bit her cheek, refusing to focus on the warmth of his skin as it wrapped around her hand. “That depends.”
    He raised an eyebrow. “On what?”
    “You gonna talk any more about those wet dreams you used to have?”
    Josh shook his head almost immediately, the epitome of a well-behaved kid—which he’d never been. “Hell, no. I promise.”
    Ah. Well, darn. “And you don’t have to work?”
    “I’m done for the week. Unless there’s an emergency, this afternoon and the entire weekend are all mine.”
    She smiled. “Then if you’d be willing to take me, I’d love to go sailing with you.”
    He stood and was tugging her up along with him before she’d finished talking. “Ace. Let’s go.”
    “Now?” What if she hadn’t given him a choice? What if he didn’t really want to go sailing and she’d just forced herself on him?
    He nodded. “Right now.”
    “Wh-what’s the rush?”
    He met her gaze with his emerald green one. “You know how I promised not to talk about my teenage wet dreams?”
    “Uh, yeah.” Why, oh why did she feel like she was walking into a well-planned trap?
    His face lit up like a damned Christmas tree. “Well, I made no such promises about my adult ones. And believe me, Si, you don’t want anyone within ear distance when I tell you about those.”

Chapter Three
    Sienna gaped at Josh. Again. Hell, she didn’t think she’d stopped gaping since he’d surprised her by the pool. But seriously, the words that came out of the man’s mouth were enough to make anyone gawk. And blush.
    He sat beside her on the Hobie’s trampoline, his legs stretched in front of him, one ankle propped over the other and the tiller caught under his arm. Wind whipped hair around his face, making him look wild, untamed and absolutely beautiful. Mirth and merriment glinted in his eyes like the rays of the afternoon sun glinted on the water.
    “You’re just saying all of that to make me blush again,” she told him accusingly.
    He shrugged, looking ridiculously adorable. “I’m saying it because it’s the truth.”
    Sienna straightened her shoulders and decided to call his bluff. She was no longer the tongue-tied kid. She was a mature, experienced adult, and she could give as good as she got.
    And if she got good, she gave good.
    Suppressing a smile, she glanced pointedly at his groin then ran her hand over the boom beneath the sail, trailing her fingers down the smooth metal. “This hard, huh?”
    “That hard.” He grinned at her. “But thicker."
    She wrapped her fingers around the metal and raised a disbelieving eyebrow.
    “You’re welcome to compare,” he offered generously and shifted his leg, inviting her to move her hand from the boom and settle it on his cock.
    Sienna’s grip on the bar tightened. Her mouth turned dry. Ben was the only man she’d desired in eight years. Eight long years. She still desired him. That was a hard, unrelenting fact she couldn’t deny.
    Yet sitting this close to Josh, with the salty, ocean air filling her nose and nothing but crystal water stretched out around them, her belly flipped from one side to the other. Hunger and lust coursed through her veins like an incoming tide. She wanted him. Wanted him with a fierceness that shook her.
    Not Ben. Josh .
    When once she’d lusted after him with all the innocence of a teenager, now very womanly needs tugged at her breasts and pulled at her pussy. Josh’s talk about the size of his erection was not helping matters at all. She resisted the urge to pump her hand up and down the boom, doing to it exactly what she wished to do to Josh.
    That, and so very much
