Summer Love in the City (Summer Instalove)

Kim nodded, looking up at me with those wide, pretty eyes, then she stretched up to kiss

me again.

She definitely wanted me. I could feel it. I could taste it. “It’s killing me to leave you for even a few hours,” I whispered into her ear.

“Good things come to those who wait,” she smiled.

Grabbing her hip, I gave her a little shake. “Does that mean you’re going to wear sexy

lingerie for me, since I won’t see you for a few hours?”

She started to giggle, but then saw that I was deadly serious. “What kind of girl do you

think I am?” she asked saucily.

“The kind that knows what she wants, so she’s going to go out and take it.”

Sliding my hand up her back to caress the nape of her neck, I kissed her lightly. “Besides,

you’re on vacation. Just let everything happen, gorgeous.”

Her nose crinkled when she grinned. “We’ll see,” she said cautiously.

“I’ll pick you up for dinner,” I said. “Until then, I’m going to miss you.”

She gave her head a shake, then took off down the street. I raced back to work, quickly

calling my buddy Evan for advice on a romantic tropical restaurant where I could dazzle my

sweet new lady.

CHAPTER THREE

* Kim *

At seven-twenty-five, my makeup and hair were done, and I had finally settled on a green

and black dress with a green tropical necklace. A bikini was tucked into my purse just in

case Devin hadn’t been joking.

The only thing I couldn’t decide was whether or not I should sleep with him.

The heat behind that kiss in the alley had been…remarkable. A little crazy. I barely knew the

guy, so I shouldn’t just be jumping into bed with him.

But in a way, he was right. If I were in Tahiti this week and ran into somebody half as hot as

he was, I would feel compelled to go with the flow.

I considered calling one of the other girls for their opinion, but knew that they would just

laugh at me. I was always so bold when I was talking to my friends. They probably didn’t

have any idea how shy I could be around men. It was too easy to start second-guessing

myself, then suddenly I would be all awkward and had no idea how to behave.
