“I’m a little dirty,” he said huskily, running his hand up and down the outside of one of her thighs. “I washed up but should have showered. Didn’t expect this.”
“You probably should have expected this.” Her voice sounded a little breathless.
“Yeah,” he agreed, his eyes darkening. “I probably should have.”
“It’s okay,” she told him. “I’m washable.” Images of showers and soap bubbles tripped through her mind and she hoped through his as well.
He gave her a little grin. “Good to know. Means I can get you really dirty.”
Juliet felt her breathing quicken. She put her hand against his face, over his scar. “I really want that.”
Sawyer slid a hand up her back and into her hair. He urged her closer until her lips were nearly against his. “Me, too.”

“Hey, the only person I almost shot was Owen,” Maddie said, giving her boyfriend a huge smile. “And if that does end up happening, he’ll forgive me.”
Owen grabbed her wrist and pulled her close, kissing the top of her head. “You’d nurse me back to health?”
“I’d make you alligator gumbo out of the fucking lizard that tried to take a bite of you,” she said.”

“Juliet laughed. "I am not the first woman to tell you that she finds you attractive."
"No," he said, again almost as if he was thinking out loud. "But you're the first to lay it out like that. And the first with the scar."
"I'm not," she said, with absolute confidence. "I might be the first to say it, but no, Saywer, other women have found that hot too. I promise you.”

“Well, when we get hot there are a couple of other things we do,” he said.
Had he moved closer?
Juliet swallowed. “Like what?”
“We take clothes off,” he said.”
