Nicky had another quick word with
Robert while trying to connect the mobile to the charger. All was going well
and they were looking forward to seeing her the following weekend. Robert
didn’t mention Shane so she assumed there were some issues and she avoided
asking as well. They quickly said their goodbyes. Troubled, she looked out across
the sea again. She knew too well that things weren’t going well on the other
side of the Atlantic. She wished she could just reach out and be there.
Nicky had just come out of the shower
when Daniel knocked at the door. She opened the door slightly and saw him smiling
at her, with a towel her only cover. Then her mobile rang and she went back
into the room. It was Shane, but she chose not to answer it. When she turned
around, Daniel had already stepped into the room with her.
“My timing seems to be just perfect,”
he said with a big grin. Nicky rolled her eyes at him.
“Okay – just a quick question. I just
talked to Sash. Vonnie, her family, Erin, her little princess and Alex are
camping down near Cork for a few days and are wondering whether we would like
to join them on the way home. Sash could bring all the stuff,” Daniel told her.
“You’re kidding me, aren’t you?” Nicky
was slightly baffled. “Camping?” Her eyes grew big.
Daniel moved closer. “Don’t tell me
you’ve never been camping.” He smiled.
“You don’t expect me to sleep in a
tent, on a mattress out there with all sorts of crawling little bugs,” Nicky
sighed.
“Miss England, it’ll be great. I
promise. You’ll camp with me and Sash in the tent and you’ll be fine. Come on.”
She thought about it and looked into
his begging eyes.
“You owe me big time for this, Mr. Callaghan!”
She quickly adjusted the towel that was in danger of slipping.
He donned a smile of anticipation,
took her face into his hand and softly touched his lips to hers.
“They say nothing beats sitting by the
campfire under the stars.” He looked into her blue eyes before brushing her
lips with his again.
“You’re taking advantage of the
situation here, Mr. Callaghan,” Nicky said softly.
He smiled conspiringly. “Shh,” he
whispered into her ear and took her hands off the towel. He kissed her gently as
he laid her down on the bed. Nicky closed her eyes in pure happiness as he
caressed her body softly with his lips. It was an overwhelming sensation that
made her give into her feelings.
"All in all I really did enjoy this book and I think the author has a real gift for story telling. So I’ll give the book 4 out of 5 stars"
"Overall, a very well written novel from a very talented writer.
My Rating: 4"
"All of the characters are a VERY unique that are possibly people that you know in real life. The overall story (minus the extra back-story) is a story that is very real and very relate able"
