Chapter 127

• I stepped out of the small office and I saw a young woman on the beach, struggling with a canoe. I walked up to her and started to laugh. She turned around and my breath caught in my throat. She was exotically beautiful and I was aware that I was staring.
• “Let me help you with that.” I picked up the canoe, getting my bearings straight and put it face down on the beach. “I hope you’re not planning to go out on the water in this thing, are you?”
• “Thanks and actually I was, it’s so beautiful here.” She smiled at me, even her voice was beautiful and I smiled back at her, she had that type of smile, one you couldn’t resist.
