couples destination, you muppet.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ella Radley adjusted her backpack and flinched as it nudged the raw skin which still stung despite spending yesterday hiding out in her deluxe ocean-view room at the Paradiso Cove Resort in Bermuda \u2013 AKA Canoodle Central.<\/p>\n<p>Ella sighed \u2013 nothing like getting third-degree sunburn in the one place you couldn\u2019t reach to remind you of your single status. Not that she needed reminding. She stared in dismay at the line of six couples, all in various stages of loved-up togetherness, on the dock ahead of her as she waited to board the motor cruiser at the Royal Naval Dockyards on Ireland Island for what the dive company\u2019s website had promised would be \u201ca two-hour snorkel tour of a lifetime\u201d. Unfortunately, she\u2019d booked the tour when she\u2019d first arrived nearly a week ago, before she\u2019d been hit on by a succession of married men and pimply pubescent boys, napalmed all the skin between her shoulder blades and generally lost the will to have anything remotely resembling a lifetime experience.<\/p>\n<p>Her best friend Ruby had once told her she was far too sweet and eager and romantic for her own good. Well, she was <em>so<\/em> over that. Frankly, paradise and all its charms could take a hike. She\u2019d much rather be icing cupcakes in Touch of Frosting\u2019s cosy cafe kitchen in North London \u2013 and laughing about what a nightmare her dream holiday had turned out to be with her business partner and BFF Ruby \u2013 than standing in line to take a snorkeling tour of a lifetime that would probably give her a terminal case of seasickness.<\/p>\n<p><em>Stop being such a grump.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ella gazed out across the harbour \u2013 trying to locate at least a small measure of her usual sunny outlook on life. Yachts and motor boats \u2013 dwarfed by the enormous cruise ship anchored across the harbour \u2013 bobbed on water so blue and sparkly it hurt her eyes. She recalled the pink sand beach they\u2019d passed on the way in, framed by lush palms and luxury beach bungalows, which looked as if it had been ripped from the pages of a tourist brochure.<\/p>\n<p>She only had one more day to fully appreciate the staggering beauty of this island paradise. Maybe booking this holiday hadn\u2019t been the smartest thing she\u2019d ever done, but she\u2019d needed a distraction\u2026 The trickle of panic crawled over her skin, making her aware of the familiar clutching sensation in her belly. She pressed her palm to the thin cotton of her sundress, until it went away again. She needed this day trip \u2014 to get her out of her room before the panic overwhelmed her \u2014 or worse, she became addicted to US daytime soaps.<\/p>\n<p>The line moved forward as a tall man appeared at the gangplank wearing ragged cut-offs and a black T-shirt with the dive company\u2019s logo on it, his face shadowed by a peaked captain\u2019s cap. Ella\u2019s breathing stopped, her eyes narrowing to minimise the glare off the water, astonished to discover that the steely-haired Captain Sonny Mangold, whose weathered face beamed out from the photo on the website, appeared to be in amazing physical shape for a guy pushing sixty. Talk about a silver fox. Not that she could see his hair from this distance.<\/p>\n<p>Captain Sonny began to welcome each couple aboard, his gruff American accent floating towards her on the still, muggy air, and sending peculiar shivers up Ella\u2019s spine, even though she couldn\u2019t make out what he was saying. The couple ahead of her, looking affluent and young and very much in love, were the last to block her view. As the captain helped them both aboard, Ella stepped forward, anticipation making her throat dry. She took in the staggeringly broad shoulders and long muscular legs encased in denim cut-offs, as his head dipped to tick off the list on the clipboard in his hand. Wisps of dark blond hair clung to lean cheeks and a square, stubbled jaw, confusing her even more, then his head lifted.<\/p>\n<p>All thoughts of nightmare holidays, canoodling couples and silver foxes blasted right out of her brain.<\/p>\n<p><em>Goodness, he\u2019s stunning. And not much over thirty.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2018You\u2019re not Captain Sonny,\u2019 she blurted, the wake-up call to her dormant libido blasting away her usual shyness too.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Captain Cooper Delaney at your service.\u2019 The rich jade of his irises twinkled, and the tanned skin round the edges of his eyes creased. His arresting gaze dipped, to check the clipboard again. \u2018And you must be Miz Radley.\u2019 The laconic voice caressed her name, while his gaze paused momentarily on its journey back to her face, rendering the bikini she had on under her sundress half its normal size.<\/p>\n<p>A large, bronzed hand, sprinkled with sun-bleached hair, reached out. \u2018Welcome aboard The Jezebel, Miz Radley. You travelling on your own today?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Yes.\u2019 She coughed, distressed as the answer came out on a high-pitched squeak. Heat flared across her scalp.<\/p>\n<p><em>Good lord, am I having a hot flush? Can he see it?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2018Is that okay?\u2019 she asked. Then realised it sounded as if she was asking his permission.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Sure.\u2019 His wide sensual lips lifted but stopped tantalisingly short of a grin \u2013 making her fairly positive he knew exactly how he was affecting her.<\/p>\n<p>The blush promptly went radioactive.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018As long as you don\u2019t have any objections to me being your snorkel buddy?\u2019 He squeezed her fingers as she stepped aboard. \u2018We don\u2019t let clients dive alone. It\u2019s safer that way.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The pads of her fingertips rubbed against the thick calluses on the ridge of his palm. And the tips of her already constricted breasts tightened.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I don\u2019t have any objections,\u2019 she said, feeling stupidly bereft when he let go of her hand \u2014 and thinking that even on their ten-second acquaintance she\u2019d hazard a guess that Captain Cooper Delaney was the opposite of safe. Why for the first time in a long time she should find that exhilarating instead of intimidating made her wonder exactly how stressed she\u2019d been in the last week.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018How about you sit up front with me?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t sound like a question, but she nodded, her tongue now completely numb.<\/p>\n<p>His palm settled on the small of her back, just beneath the line of her sunburn. He directed her past the other passengers as she struggled not to notice the hot tingles generated by his touch and the fresh scent of saltwater and soap that clung to him. Bypassing the single space left between the couples wedged onto the benches that rimmed the hull, he escorted her to one of the two seats in front of the console in the boat\u2019s cabin.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018There you go, Miz Radley.\u2019 He tipped his cap, the gesture more amused than polite thanks to that tempting twinkle, then turned to address the other passengers.<\/p>\n<p>She listened to him introduce himself and the two wiry teenage boys who were his crew for the day, then launch into a relaxed spiel about the twenty-five minute voyage to the snorkel site called Western Blue Cut, the history of the sunken wreck they\u2019d be exploring, the ecology of the reef and a string of safety tips. But all she really heard was the deliciously rusty texture of his voice while her mind wrestled with the question of exactly what being someone\u2019s snorkel buddy might entail.<\/p>\n<p>It couldn\u2019t possibly be as intimate as it sounded. Could it?<\/p>\n<p>But when he climbed into the seat beside her, his hand closed over the rounded head of the gear stick on the console and she swallowed past a constriction in her throat that felt a lot like excitement.<\/p>\n<p>He adjusted the stick down, tapped a dial, pressed a button and the boat roared to life. She grabbed the rail at the edge of the console to stop from tumbling onto her butt. He slanted her an amused look as she scrambled back in to her seat. Then hid his mischievous gaze behind a pair of sunglasses.<\/p>\n<p>All the blood pumped back into her cheeks \u2013 not to mention the hot spot between her legs \u2013 as the motor launch kicked away from the dock, edged past the other boats in the marina, and left the walled harbour to skim over the swell towards the reef.<\/p>\n<p>He flashed her an easy smile \u2014 that seemed to share a wicked secret. \u2018Hold on tight. I\u2019d hate to lose my snorkel buddy before we get there.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The answering grin that fluttered over Ella\u2019s lips felt like her first genuine smile in months \u2013 filling up a small part of the gaping hole that had opened up in the pit of her stomach over a week ago.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe going on a holiday of a lifetime solo didn\u2019t completely suck after all.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av-layout-grid-1'  class='av-layout-grid-container
