—Rendezvous Reviews on Pelican Bay by Charlotte Douglas

Bill stood, set my mug aside and pulled me to my feet.
“What does Swami Malcolm see in my future?”
“You’re spending the night on a boat with a tall, dark man.”
“Dark?”
“Well, suntanned, at least. But just because there’s snow on the roof doesn’t mean there’s no fire in the furnace.”
I couldn’t resist teasing him. “You know what else they say?”
He tugged me closer. “What?”
“That by thirty-five you get your head together and your body starts falling apart.”
“I don’t feel a day over twenty,” he said with an irresistible grin, “and I’d guess that you’re just over eighteen.”
“Why eighteen?”
“Because that makes what I have in mind legal.”
He kissed me then, and all thoughts of murders and cold cases disappeared.
