~ Dedication ~
To everyone who has ever gone tubin',
fishing, camping, hiking, hunting with me. We've had a heckuva good
time, and I have a cooler full of memories to last a lifetime.
Chapter One
The mosquito landed on her leg. Pauline
Sergoni froze, her hand suspended in the air. This time she’d kill
the thing once and for all.
Slap .
“Ah ha! Gotcha.” She brushed the remains off
her skin and dipped her hands into the water. “Jolene sure is one
lucky gal to have all this at her disposal. I think I’d really
enjoy bringing my horses out here to ride along the river.” She
stood up and flipped back her mahogany locks, the ends already wet
and sticking to her bare stomach. “I probably should have tied my
hair back.”
Bryce stood a few feet away from her,
keeping two inner tubes from floating downstream. “We figured you’d
like it out here.” The sound of someone running across rocks
reached them. He peered past her shoulder. “About time you got
here. I was ready to steal Pauline away for the day by myself if
you didn’t get your ass down here soon.”
Taylor laughed and swooped Pauline up in his
arms. “No way. I’ve looked forward to this weekend all week. I
thought my case would go on forever. I’m more than ready for a day
of fun.” He nuzzled her neck. “I’m going through withdrawals, brown
eyes.” He gave her a loud smack on the lips. “I’ve had to resort to
jacking off every night thinking about sinking my cock in your
pussy. I’ve missed you.”
She giggled, running her hand through his
short blonde curls. “Mmm, me too. I definitely missed seeing you do
that.” She grabbed his hand, stopped, and gazed up at Bryce. “Uh
oh. You only brought two tubes?”
Taylor wrapped his buffed arms around her
waist, pulling her tight against his hard, sculptured body. “Bryce
has had you for the whole week by himself while I was working, so I
get you today. We can double up.” He shifted his hips forward and
pressed the proof of how serious he was against her.
