Excerpt

Collin stood above me, a quirk to his lips, his eyes glowing with laughter. “I haven't taken a woman on a landing in quite some time,” he said, the mirth but a ripple away from spilling over.
“And you'll not being doing so anytime soon, son.” Nan's voice came from the darkness like a splash of cold water. I'm not sure about Collin, but I felt like I was sixteen and I'd just been busted stealing my very first kiss.
“Nan, don't be ridiculous.” I pulled myself to my feet and looked out at her from just above Collin's shoulder. Collin was, once again, frozen stiff as a statue. I was beginning to think that he might actually be afraid of my little old Nan.

I had pulled him into the main bedroom where the master bath connected. Quickly rummaging through the closet I found an old pair of my grandpa's trousers, a button-up shirt and a cardigan. Tossing them all to Collin, I grabbed the closest robe off the closet hook and pulled my wet dress over my head. “You can always shower alone,” I told him as I stood before him in nothing more than my heels, undergarments and a wicked smile.
