First, my flight is delayed, and I miss most of the first night of food, fun and frolicking with my friends.
Second, by the time I get to the resort, they are all flying high and I’m ready to turn around and hop the first flight back home and go back to work.
Then, one of my so-called friends snaps off my bikini top at the swim up bar and before I know it, the hulking, dark eyed security guard at the hotel has me strapped to the back of his motorcycle heading into the jungle.
I’m down for some adventure sure, but when a tropical storm whips up and strands us at his beachfront cabana (where he never seems to wear a shirt and I’m not complaining) a little adventure turns into something bigger.
Way bigger.
He’s demanding and grouchy and treats me like I’m a princess. Only, when my brothers show up wondering what’s happened to me, tropical fantasy time is over and real life comes crashing down.
It was fun while it lasted. I’ll be leaving my heart and my V-card under the palm trees wishing our two worlds would collide again. And next time, forever.
Author’s This vacation fling turns into a sizzling steamer trunk full of hotness. These two brave the storm but end up causing their own sort of tsunami under the stars. This hero doesn’t suffer fools and when he sees what’s his on display for all to see, he takes his prize and claims her as his own. Insta-love and over the top, no cheating and a happily ever after topped off with a little paper umbrella.

Chapter One
Sophia
My stomach knots as my monster-sized brother Tor pulls his monster-sized black Maybach to the curb in front of the terminal doors.
The skycap tips his head toward the tinted windows as he approaches and the tap tap tap of my molars clicking together keeps time with my speeding heartbeat. I know I’ve forgotten something.
Did I put the Dark Opal basil on the produce order?
What if a food critic pops in for a meal, and I’m not there?
I don’t remember if I told the sommelier to watch the thermostat on the upper cooler. It was off by two degrees yesterday…
I swallow and wonder for the hundredth time in the twenty-minute drive to the airport if bailing on my annual trip with friends from my culinary institute days is an option.
I press on a smile as Natalie, Tor’s wife of four years—who has become one of my best friends—turns to look at me from the passenger seat.
“I miss margaritas,” she says, one hand on her eight-month pregnant belly as Tor flashes her a look. “I’m pretty sure this whole situation here was the result of a few too many margaritas, if I remember.”
She winks at me as my brother grunts. Shifting in my seat, the leather makes a loud stuttering squeak as I dig my fingertips into my palms.
I hate being away from my restaurant. It’s like leaving a helpless infant in the care of a gang of psychotic toddlers.
“I don’t need margaritas to knock you up,” my oldest brother grumbles. “My super sperm hit the mark every time.”
“Oh my God. Please.” I squeeze my eyes shut, shaking my head. “Stop. I’m still working on getting the image of you two on my desk four years ago out of my mind. I do not need to hear anything about margaritas and super sperm…”
Natalie chirps on a giggle and shrugs as Tor reaches over and pinches her chin, giving her a look that I know means as soon as I’m inside the airport, he’s going to find a spot to park the car and do some things I don’t want to think about.
“Maybe you’ll find yourself a little ‘knockered’ on vaca,” Natalie says on a smile as Tor presses his fingers over her mouth.
“Don’t say that to her. She’s not getting knockered-anything, not as long as I’m alive.” He clears his throat, drumming the fingers not touching his wife on the steering wheel, his nostrils flaring, then turns to me. “Call if you need anything, anytime. Either me or Cyrus will hop on a plane or make some phone calls…whatever you need. I didn’t like the sound of how things went last year on this trip of yours. Your so-called friends sound like morons.”
