Page 1 of Summer with a SEAL

Chapter 1

Jacob “Joker” Olson smirked as he watched his SEAL team buddy Noah “Viper” Miller sweep his girlfriend up and over his shoulder, running down toward the ocean. The waves crashed on the sandy shore, and Bailey shrieked in delight, seemingly loving every second as Noah splashed through the surf.

“He’s so screwed,” Ryker “Bulls Eye” Fletcher said in a low voice, shaking his head. “Bailey’s got him by the balls and fucking knows it.”

Jacob guffawed, taking a swig of his beer as he glanced over at his teammate. “He’s screwed or screwing his girlfriend? Because he seems happy as hell. Both of them do.”

“Yep,” Ryker confirmed, running a hand over his five o’clock shadow. “Screwed and screwing his woman. And you’re right—Noah doesn’t seem to give a fuck.”

Their SEAL team leader Hunter “Hook” Murdock laughed from his chair by the bonfire, pulling his girlfriend Emma closer to him. “Just wait,” he said. “There’s a woman out there for each of you. She’ll smack into you from out of nowhere, and after that, you won’t know which way is up and which is down. And then we’ll tell her all about how you planned to never settle down with one woman.”

Jacob crossed his arms, leaning back in his own chair with a grin on his face. “Don’t see it happening, man. Don’t get me wrong, I love the ladies. I could spend the night with a different one every day of the week. But one woman for life? Nah. Don’t see anything like that ever happening.”

“Famous last words,” Hunter quipped.

“Amen to that,” Colton “C-4” Ferguson chuckled as he walked by, hand-in-hand with his own girlfriend Camila. They’d started dating after the team rescued Camila down in Bogota—and seemed happy as hell at the moment, too.

Noah and Bailey came walking back from the surf toward their group. “If Noah mysteriously disappears one day, you’ll know it was me,” Bailey said, her lips quirking in a smile. “He’s got it coming after that little stunt.”

“We won’t say a thing,” Hunter assured her.

“I’ll help you bury the body,” Emma quipped in her English accent. “But Noah,” she chastised, brushing her red hair back over her shoulders. “We just got here. At least get the woman some food and a glass of wine before you toss her into the bloody Atlantic.”

The others chuckled, glancing at one another.

“It sounds so much more civilized when you say it,” Jacob said. “But I’ll throw Noah’s ass in the ocean for you if you want, Bailey.”

“We Brits do sound quite posh now, don’t we?” Emma asked with a smile. “I told Hunter that’s why he should pay careful attention to everything I say.”

“I’d say you already have him wrapped around your finger,” Jacob said.

“No need to remind her of it,” Hunter said gruffly.

Jacob’s gazed drifted toward a group of nearby women in bikinis heading down toward the ocean. The sun was just beginning to dip in the sky, sending warm rays over the water. Sunrise on Virginia Beach was spectacular, with the sun climbing up over the Atlantic Ocean, but when the sun lowered in the west at night, the light still danced off the water.

Jacob watched with interest as a brunette with wavy brown hair dipped her toes in the ocean, her emerald green bikini showing off her killer curves.

Although the other women all were in string bikinis, hers had some ruffles around the triangle pieces of fabric that covered her breasts. Her bikini bottoms showed off her toned ass, and he was tempted to walk over and introduce himself. Let his gaze rake over her gorgeous body and see if her personality was as appealing as her looks.

She turned toward her friends, laughing, and his eyes landed on the swell of her breasts. Although she was fit and slender, her breasts were round and full. Perfect for palming in his large hands.

Hell.

What would they look like bouncing up and down as she rode him straight to ecstasy?

A woman like that was a sight to behold.

“I got dibs on the blonde,” Ryker said, following his gaze.

“She’s all yours,” Jacob said with a chuckle. “I’ve got my eye on that pretty brunette.”

Jacob and his SEAL team buddies had headed to the quieter north end of the beach this evening. The southern end of Virginia Beach was filled with hotels and a busy boardwalk. Restaurants and shops dotted the strand, and the team’s favorite bar Anchors was located down there. It was the perfect spot for picking up women, and the guys enjoyed drinks and some food there when they went out.

It was quieter here though and less crowded—perfect for their bonfire. Nothing better than tossing back a couple of beers with his buddies as the sun began to set, watching the beautiful women on the beach walking by.

The brunette glanced over in the direction of their group, and Jacob grinned, seeing a faint flush spread across her cheeks as their eyes met.

That was interesting.
