Chapter One

Dade

January

I
saw her as soon as I stepped off the bus from the airport. How could I miss her? The sun was reflecting off the blonde hair piled messily on top of her head. She was laughing at something the pool boy was saying as he handed her some pink, frilly drink with a blue umbrella. The umbrella matched her bikini which perfectly showcased her curves.

Her laugh was musical. I couldn’t see her eyes because they were hidden behind mirrored aviators, but something told me they would be light. I bet they’re blue.

The tap on my arm alerts me to the fact that the pretty driver is speaking to me, and apparently has been for a bit. Shifting my attention from the alluring blonde near the pool, I smile sheepishly at her and shrug. “I’m sorry; I spaced out. I apologize. I have no idea what you were just saying.” Her eyes swing toward the pool before returning to my own. “I understand your distraction. The scenery over there is quite beautiful,” she says with a smile.

Unintentionally, my gaze returns to the pool. The aviators are pointed in my direction. Pulling my own shades down, I wink. Her mouth pops open. Smiling, I turn and head into the hotel to get checked in.

After getting settled into the room, I decide to investigate the pool. Maybe the blonde is still there. Spending a few days with her in this tropical paradise wouldn’t be a hardship. I check myself out in the mirror and I see a tall, fit body. My shoulders are defined. My arms are toned and tight and show off my many tattoos. My chest is also chiseled and tattooed and my torso is long and sculpted. I work my ass off for this body and I’m proud of it. The appreciation from the opposite sex doesn’t hurt either.

Lord, I need this break. Things have been insane at home. We just finished a tour with the band. Jude got married. Jessie got engaged. Who the hell would have thought that would ever happen?! My sister is home from California and all I want to do is protect her from the evils of the world, but she and Liam both live in my house now and it’s like a damn warzone. Those two are constantly at each other’s throats. My sweet little sister is just what my philandering band mate needs, and both want the other fiercely, yet both are too outraged at the others mere existence to figure it out. Something needs to happen with them, and soon, or everyone is going to be miserable. Thankfully, I left them alone together while I’m away to figure it out, whichever way it goes, while I catch some sun and decompress.

My inner reflections take me to the hotel lobby and I can’t help but scan the pool occupants through the floor to ceiling windows as I make my way to the doors. The blonde’s chair is empty. A slight sense of disappointment sweeps through me.

Since the object of my thoughts is not at the pool, I bypass it and head down to the white sand of the beach. The waves are crashing onto the shore as the palm fronds wave in the breeze. The scent and sounds of the beach instantly soothe me. Scanning the loungers, I find one that is far enough away from anyone so that I should be able to just listen to the waves and relax.

As I plop down onto the plush cushions, I’m approached by a resort employee who asks if I’d like anything from the bar. I order a Corona. Within minutes he’s back with my beer and tells me his name is Juan. He’s a little fidgety, but I chalk it up to his being young.

I’m able to relax for a bit. As the waves crash and the ocean breeze caresses my back, I drift into slumber.

An hour later, I’m awakened by the clearing of a throat. Turning my head, I look into the nervous island face of my waiter, Juan. Raising my brow, I silently ask why my nap was interrupted. He blushes and stutters, “I am sorry to disturb you, Mister Rodrigue. We have arranged a private cabana for you at the end of this beach for the length of your stay. If you would like to follow me, I can take you to it. There is a bar, shade, and beach access for you. You will not be disturbed there. While you were resting, a couple of people were trying to disturb you and take photographs. I kept them away.”

Sighing, I offer him my thanks to him and I get up. As I follow him, I notice that a cell phone camera is being directed my way. So much for privacy.

We walk about a quarter mile down the beach and I see several cabanas spaced rather far apart, all with private beach access. He gestures to the first one, though all appear to be empty. The cream linen of the cabana tent is accented with bright blue and red pillows and cushions. As stated, there’s a fully stocked bar in the corner. Juan rounds it. Reaching underneath the bar top, he pulls out a Corona and pops the top off before handing it to me. “I will be your personal concierge for your stay, Mister Rodrigue. I am very excited. I am a huge fan of your band.”

Smiling at the excitement I see on his face, I take the beer. “Thank you, Juan. Please call me, Dade.”

“No. No. I cannot, Mister Rodrigue. That is highly improper.”

I chuckle. “I promise it’s ok, Juan. We’re going to spend a lot of time together. Please. Call me Dade. So, you like Bayou Stix?”

He excitedly tells me he has all of our albums and that we are his favorite band. He wishes we would come to the island for a concert. We have small chit chat for a while, before I yawn. The flight over was tiring and life in general has been chaotic lately. He notices and tells me to relax and he’ll be around if I need him. He hands me a small remote and tells me just to push the button if I need him, but for now he’ll give me some privacy.

I spend the rest of the afternoon laying in the sun, drinking Coronas, and listening to the water. St. John is exactly what I’ve been needing.
