"...The heat that had been building in her cheeks spread like wildfire, engulfing her entire face, blazing down her neck to her chest. She could feel her skin burning beneath the cool water, as if her embarrassment were a physical force radiating from within..."
Exams are over. Summer is here. And Eden is finally ready to fully relax. Alone at her family's lake house, and in spite of her reserved nature, she decides to cut loose, to become one with nature, and--safe in her seclusion--take a dip as nature intended. It's bliss. It's what she's needed. It's perfect. Until...
Eden hears a sound! Is someone there? Is someone watching? Panic and embarrassment grip her in equal measure. She conjures up images of some lecherous voyeur, creeping, peeping, stealing pleasure from her innocent, natural swim.
But just as her alarm reaches fever pitch, all is revealed. It's not some stranger, some lech, some danger... It's a familiar face, a friend. But more than that, it's her crush from University. It's Shawn.
And now Eden is thrown into a new predicament. This friend from college--this man whom she has fantasised about in the safety and solitude of her bedroom--is here with her now in the lake. And she is at her most vulnerable, her most exposed.
Does he know? Has he realised? Can she possibly maintain her secret... and her dignity? Or will the heat building within her prove too much to bear? One question above all others rises to the front of Eden's Would it really be so bad if he had been watching me?
