Seaside Serenade (A Seaside Flirt) Read online

  “Of course he knows us.” The hot blonde stepped forward, arms crossed, eyes no longer wide and warm, but narrow and angry.

  He hated men who leered at women, but he was powerless to refrain from drinking her in for one last second. The other two women were lovely in their own right, but they didn’t compare to the tall blonde with fire in her eyes and a body made for loving.

  Kurt nodded. “Yes, Officer. We know them.”

  “God, you guys. What the heck?” the dark-haired woman asked through the open window.

  “You were waking the dead,” the tall blonde answered.

  “Oh, gosh. I’m sorry, Officer,” the brunette said through the window. Her cheeks flushed, and she slipped back inside and closed the window.

  “I assure you, everything is okay here.” Kurt glared at the hot blonde.

  “Okay, well, if you see any suspicious activity, we’re only a phone call away.” He took a step toward his car.

  The tall blonde hurried into his path. “Did someone from Seaside call the police?”

  “No. I was just patrolling the area.”

  She held his gaze. “Just patrolling the area? No one patrols Seaside.”

  “Bella,” the other blonde hissed.

  Bella.

  “Seriously. No one patrols our community. They never have.” She lifted her chin in a way that he assumed was meant as a challenge, but it had the opposite effect. She looked cuter than hell.

  Caden stepped closer and tried to keep a straight face. “Your name is Bella?”

  “Maybe.”

  Feisty, too. He liked that. “Well, Maybe Bella, you’re right. We haven’t patrolled your community in the past, but things have changed. We’ll be patrolling more often to keep you safe until we catch the people who have been burglarizing the area.” He leaned in close and whispered, “But you might consider wearing pants for your window-closing evening strolls. Never know who’s traipsing around out here.”
