“I don’t care what anyone says about me.” Besides, her family had been the topic of gossip for years in Paradise. Alonso would give them something new to chat about.

He leaned across the seat and slid his hand around the back of her neck. “I don’t want to be alone, either.”
And then he kissed her.
