Her smile lights up her whole face. It’s a far cry from the miserable Delaney I brought home from the hospital. It does my heart good to see it.

“What is it?”

I lick my lips. “I got a text from Reece. He wants to see you’re okay for himself. So, I’m going to FaceTime him.”

“You’re FaceTiming Reece Evans?”

I laugh. “If he hadn’t been such a man whore, you would have met him back in LA. I don’t know why you’re fangirling over him.”

She pouts. “I’m allowed. Besides, I didn’t think I could fangirl over you.”

I laugh. “If you’d met him back in LA, you’d be giving him the same shit you give me. At least this way I get to keep that all to myself.”

“You’re crazy.”

“About you.”

I sit on the bed beside Delaney and dial.

Reece’s smiling face fills the screen. “Dude. Took you long enough.”

I laugh. “I had to warn Delaney what I was doing so she didn’t die of shock.”

He chuckles. “Introduce us.”

I grin. “Delaney, this is Reece.”

Her eyes widen as I turn the iPhone toward her. “Reece Evans, this is Delaney.”

“Damn, Carter. You done good.”

Delaney blushes. “Can we keep him?”

I scowl. “Hey.”

“I’ve seen all his movies.”

“Your girl has good taste.” Reece laughs, and the sound of Delaney joining him makes me smile.

“You’ve seen all his movies, and never watched mine?” I stare at her.

She shrugs. “There’s a reason I never watched yours. Him, I never had a problem with.”

Reece lets out a low whistle. “She’s got you there, Josh. It’s very nice to meet the famous Delaney after all this time.”

Delaney shifts her gaze to me.

“He’s been talking about you for years. You were the one who got away. But I guess there’s no chance of that happening again. Such a shame.”

His eyes drift down the screen, and I look from the phone to Delaney. One of the straps of her nightgown has slid down her arm, and …

I tilt the phone up.

“Dude.”

“That’s my girlfriend you’re perving on.”

Delaney giggles, and I arch an eyebrow at her.

“She’s cute.” Reece winks and I just shake my head. “Anyway, Delaney, I wanted to make sure you were okay after yesterday. I heard all about it from my housekeeper. She was very upset.”

Delaney nods. “I’m okay. Another day or so out of the sun and I’ll be fine.”

“That should never have happened. The security company is usually so good at keeping track when I have guests stay. They really dropped the ball with you, and I’m sorry. Any time you need somewhere to stay in Hawaii, you’re welcome at my place.”

“Thanks, Reece. I really appreciate it.”
