“That was my mum. She and my dad got caught in this storm and had to stop at the first place they found. I guess it’s even worse north of here.”

She frowns. “They’re not coming?”

I shake my head. “Not unless, by some miracle, this storm stops and all the snow is cleared by morning.”

If I’m honest, I’m relieved. It’s not that I don’t want Kenzie to meet my parents. It’s just that they come with a lot of baggage, and after my mom’s comment about Audrey, I know it’s better, at least for where Kenzie and I are at with our relationship—just starting out—that she doesn’t meet them.

If Kenzie and I go the distance, there’s plenty of time to talk about Audrey.

“I’m sorry. You must be disappointed. We came all this way.”

I step into her, loosely wrapping my arms around her waist. “It’s not all bad. It just means I get you to myself for the weekend.”

Her eyes dilate the smallest amount before I kiss her. She brings her hand to my chest and moans when she feels my bare skin. The heat of her palm feels like a branding iron, but instead of wanting to retreat, I want her to press harder.

I deepen the kiss, and my cock hardens under the towel, threatening to poke through the slit. I’m supposed to be at least attempting to be a gentleman, so what the fuck am I doing? I’m one swift tug on my towel and a jerk of her knickers away from shoving inside her.

I force myself to close the kiss and pull away, staring at her. She’s so beautiful, so open with her feelings and warm heart. I can tell exactly what she’s feeling when she looks at me with those sky-blue eyes of hers. That’s what it feels like when she looks at me the way she is now, like a ray of sunshine is warming my skin.

“Guess we have the rest of the day to ourselves. Why don’t I get dressed and we can go check out the rest of the resort? Sound good?”

She nods. “Sure, if that’s what you want to do.”

I give her a strained smile because no, most assuredly it is not what I want to do. But I won’t play around with Finn’s little sister. I have to be sure before we sleep together, even if I did fuck up the other night at my place.

I return to the bathroom and change into the clothes I brought in with me, then join her in the bedroom.
