K9 deputy Mac Tullman and his furry partner Rego are going on their first vacation in years with a group of fellow officers and their spouses and a few others friends. The promise of turquoise waters, sandy beaches and females in bikinis sounds awesome to his overworked mind but he may get way more than he bargained for when he purchased the ticket in the form of a deeply wounded chestnut beauty with ethereally green eyes. For Brenna Malloy the scars are healing, both physical and emotional. Partially due to the stubborn love of her self appointed brothers and their families dragging her back into the world that harmed her so badly including taking her on a Carribean vacation. It's been two years since that fateful day, she is slowly learning to enjoy the world again but she still wonders if she will ever learn to trust again much less allow herself to feel love.

Allison Snow was ten years younger than Colton Pierce but that didn’t affect their tight bond. That was until he went to college and they had a silly argument. Now ... well, now it is been two years since she has seen his face - two, very long, years that nearly drove her into insanity. But he is back in town, however it is only because her mother begged him to come back, because Allison was not handling the loss of her grandmother all that well. When he walks back in her life, Allison knows two things for certain, she can’t let him know what she did when they stopped becoming friends and she most certain cannot tell him that she might be growing ‘romantic’ feelings for him... Yet, both of which are becoming seemingly impossible...

"Just," he pressed his lips to mine, "this one time." I breathed out, leaning in to him at the feeling of his touch. "You've said that the past three times," he chuckled, pressing my back into a wall. He lifted my legs and wrapped them around him, muttering "Let's face it, you're my little sex nerd." "Just because you can't get laid by anyone else?" I smirked. This made him shrug and instead of responding, he kissed me. -•-•-•- "What do I get out of it?" I asked, pressing my books closer to my chest. He laughed, leaning against a door. "Reed," he started, "Sweet, sweet, nerdy little Reed. You get to indulge in the mental and physical images of this," he gestured down his body, "gorgeous being." I sighed, mentally making a list of both pros and cons. I guess it wouldn't hurt; it's not like we're going to get married from this, right? "Fine, whatever, Elliot." He grinned at me, before slowly backing up. "Thanks, nerd! Be . . ." He looked around to see if anyone was in hearing distance. When he realized that everyone but us had left Uni, he spoke once again: "Meet me at mine tonight at six o'clock." -•-•- I hadn't seen anything bad coming from it, I honestly hadn't. Little did I know that I would end up in such a mess. And it's all because of Elliot Winters wanting me to be his little nerd with benefits.
