She turned to greet her newest arrival. ”Jerry!” Tina said, kissing the cheek of Carmen’s assistant and accepting the bottle of wine he presented in token.
”This place is killer,” he said, taking in the house. ”And meet LeeAnn.”
”A pleasure,” she said to the rather serious but gorgeous woman attached to Jerry’s arm. Tina played nice but reminded herself not to get too attached to LeeAnn. Jerry was a good-looking guy of about six-two with chiseled features, but his stats also included a revolving door of women. She’d yet to see him with the same girl twice.
”Please grab a cocktail and something to eat. I think Carmen and Shane are just outside enjoying the weather.”
Thirty minutes later and the large deck was full of guests mingling and sipping, some standing and chatting, others lounging on the plush arrangement of outdoor couches. Tina turned out to the water and her breath caught. Right on schedule the sky had put together a beautiful show for them.
”You’re right about the sunsets here,” Alice said. She’d pulled her dirty blonde hair back on one side and outfitted herself in dark denim capris and a light denim halter top that showed off her flawless figure. Tina had to hate her a little bit sometimes for looking the way she did.
”Told you. Never gets old.”
”Oh, and I hope I didn’t overstep my bounds, but I invited a friend to join us tonight,” Alice said.
Tina smiled. ”Of course not. The more the merrier.”
”I thought you might say that,” Alice said, her eyes settling somewhere behind Tina. ”Because she’s here. I’ll grab her.”
Tina turned and followed Alice’s progress to a stunning brunette in black skimmers and a royal-blue denim top, topped off with a cute gold necklace. She had gorgeous dark eyes and a body to just to die for. Layered brunette hair fell to her shoulders and how it moved gently with the breeze off the water.
Wow. Okay.
Warmth gathered in Tina’s chest and spread, and tingles prickled the back of her neck. Alice’s friend was beyond striking. In fact, she——and that’s when the woman turned fully in Tina’s direction and offered a smile.
Wait. Hold the phone.
She knew that smile and recognition took hold. She closed her eyes briefly to readjust and began systematically shoving the tingles back in their tingle-box. Of course, the bartender from MERCURY—who also happened to be a friend of Alice’s.

Whew, hot kiss on the beach. You can feel the chemistry and sexual tension coming from both of them. LOL, Tina does need to loosen up and Bette is just the one to do it.
