Catch Me (The Winters Family Series: Book 1) by Terra Kelly

stop. You're going to freak him out."  She then looked at Drew, "this is a ritual of my Dads', to torture all the men I date."
    Jack just looked innocently at Isabel, "It worked, didn't it?  Who was that boy you went to prom with?  Or that numbskull who forgot the meaning of 'curfew?'"
    Camille put an arm around her husband, softly laughing, "Curtis and Evan, and I have a feeling this man is nothing like them.  It is wonderful to finally meet you, Drew.  I have heard so much about you."
    Drew had calmed a bit, and smiled, "it's nice to meet you as well, Mrs. Sloane."
    "Oh please, dear, call me Camille."
    "Yes.  Camille.  Did you have a safe trip?"
    Camille looked at Isabel, then at Drew, and just smiled.  "We did have a nice trip.  We enjoyed a little sightseeing along the way." She reached up to Isabel's cheek, "why is your face all scratched?"
    Jack grabbed Camille's hand, "Really, Camille?" As his eyes looked to her, then to Drew's face, and his five o'clock shadow.
    "Ohhhhhh, well nevermind that."  Winking at Drew, she then turned to head down the steps. "Let's get lunch, I am starving."
    Drew looked at Isabel, who looked just as stunned as he was.  "Wow, you weren't kidding about speaking before thinking." Laughing, he headed down the steps to help unload the car.  He had a feeling this weekend was going to be very interesting.
     
     
    After Isabel's parents had settled into her cottage.  They all decided to go on a drive around the city.  Drew had pointed out different landmarks, and historical sites.  Since he was from the area, he also enjoyed sharing fun stories from his childhood.  They had a wonderful time, but Camille decided she was tired of being in a car.
    When they arrived back at the cottages, Isabel headed to Drew's cottage.  She had packed an overnight bag the night before, and left it at Drew's place.  She was standing in his bathroom naked of course, freshening up.  Drew walked in and just about tripped over his own feet. Isabel let out a full belly laugh, "Walk much?"
    Leaning his body up against the door frame.  Stifling a laugh, "What are you doing?  Your mom could walk right in."
    "Um, Baby, she has seen me naked before."
    "So she knows about your problem?"
    Turning to face him, "What problem?"
    He straightened, then walked to her, standing just an inch from her, their bodies just barely touching, "Your extreme dislike of clothes."
    "I don't dislike clothes.  I just find this more comfortable, is all."  Her body was heating up at the direct contact.  She wrapped her arms around the back of his neck.  Then she leaned in and kissed him.  "Besides, you seem to like my problem." Then she fisted her hands in his hair and brought his mouth to hers.  Breaking from the kiss, "Or would you rather I wear my sushi pajamas?"
     
    A soft moan came from his lips, "No sushi pajamas needed."  He then leaned in to continue kissing her.
    They heard a light knock at his door.  Drew looked into her eyes, "You make me crazy, Isabel Sloane."
     
     
     
    Isabel threw on a pair of shorts and an aqua blue v-neck cotton tee.  She was smiling when she walked out into Drew's living room.  Her parents were eyeing her with curiosity as they went to sit on the couch.
    Camille looked around, then with slight sadness in her tone, "Both cottages are very open, it really makes you feel at home."
    Isabel wasn't sure why her mom sounded so sad. "They are mom, something I needed for sure.  I thought about adding some color to the walls.  Maybe a light blue or a soft yellow."
    Camille lightly smiled, "A light blue, to compliment the deep blue colors of the ocean."
    Isabel was near the couch, she walked over and sat next to her mom.  She put her arm around her shoulders, "Mom what is it, why do you seem so sad?"
    Camille just patted her hand, and smiled softly, "We just miss you. But I know you're happy because you've got your special glow."
    "Awwww, Mom.  I know this is difficult, but it was a wonderful
