the steps and rang the doorbell.
    “Good afternoon,” a woman said. “You must be here for the party, go straight through the house and out the back door.”
    “Thank you,” Jennifer replied and had to jog to keep up with Molly as she took off in the direction of the back yard.
    “You made it. I’m so glad,” Emily said, as they stepped through the doorway.
    “Thank you for inviting us,” Jennifer told her.
    “I adore Molly, she’s a great kid. I forgot to tell you to bring a swim suit for her but we have plenty of extra swim attire. If you don’t mind, she can get changed with Tassia and get in the pool with the other kids,” Emily said.
    “That sounds great. Do you have extra life jackets?”
    “Yes, of course we do - also the guys are taking turns, two at a time, being life-guards so there isn’t any chance the kids can get hurt,” Emily reassured her. “I have extra swimsuits for adults, too, so why don’t you change as well. It’s a very rare, warm day, and if you don’t want to brave the pool with the kids, you can enjoy the hot tub.”
    “Thank you, that sounds nice,” Jennifer said. She quickly changed and it didn’t take long for her to start enjoying the party. She’d never before met such a wealthy family who were so down to earth.
    “I hope you’re enjoying yourself,” George said as she sat down to eat something.
    “I’m having a wonderful time. I can’t believe how many people are here,” she told him.
    “I’ve missed being here. Family is so important. I lost my wife a few years ago, and disappeared for a while, but it feels good to be home, again,” he told her.
    “I’m sorry about your loss. I didn’t know,” Jennifer told him, feeling empathy.
    “It’s been several years, and while I’ll always miss her, I’m moving on now, but thank you. How’s the job treating you?”
    “It’s wonderful. I keep so busy during each day that it’s time to leave before I know it. I don’t like jobs where you sit around, watching the clock.”
    “Well, that’s great. I know you’ll continue to do well. I’m going to hunt down some food and find my brother, now,” he said before squeezing through the crowd.
    Jennifer visited with several people and then got too warm and decided to take a swim. She dove into the water and came up against what felt like a brick wall. It knocked the breath out of her, and she would’ve sunk back into the water if strong arms hadn’t grasped her and pulled her up.
    “Thank you,” she choked. She realized she was staring at a very sexy male chest. It was hard, defined, and had water dripping down it, and she was afraid she recognized it. Her eyes slowly traveled up the tanned skin until they reached the eyes of her boss. Seeing his incredible body was one thing, but touching it wasn’t good for her blood pressure.
    She felt a tightening in her stomach, unlike anything she’d ever experienced before, and there was an instant ache in her very core. She realized she was in lust with Trenton. She was motionless for a few moments as she watched his eyes dilate and his head start bending forward. She came to her senses just in time and pushed against him. She couldn’t kiss her boss, especially in front of his entire family, in a swimming pool, where her body was barely covered.
    His eyes narrowed at her rejection, and then she watched, fascinated, as he seemed to put shutters in place, not allowing a single thought to show in his expression.
    “It looks as if you’re enjoying yourself, Jennifer,” he said, and the sound of his rough voice sent a shiver down her spine.
    “It’s Ms. Stellar, and I am, thank you,” she corrected him before swimming away. She couldn’t stare at his body any longer - it was sending her own into overdrive.
    He quickly caught up with her and pulled her back into his arms. She gasped at him, but couldn’t seem to pull her gaze away. She was losing an internal battle to keep fighting the attraction to
