Free In the Name of Love by Katie Price

reveal that she had lied about working in Zoe’s boutique, figuring that all this could wait until after the holiday. The subject of riding was not mentioned again by either of them. High on desire, she wanted to keep things light and happy and didn’t want anything to spoil their time together.
    On the penultimate day Charlie woke up and instantly felt a pang of sadness at the prospect of saying goodbye to Felipe. She had been naïve to think that she could simply have a holiday romance and then forget all about him. She was pretty sure she was already falling in love with him … not that she was going to let on to him. It must be the idyllic place and Captain Jack’s over-the-top comments getting to her.
    ‘You look sad,’ Felipe said quietly, gently stroking her hair.
    She had thought he was asleep.
    ‘No, no, I’m fine,’ Charlie replied, aware that she sounded falsely bright, speaking in the kind of voice you put on when you don’t want people to know your true feelings.
    ‘Well, you should be sad!
I’m
sad! Sad that we only have one more day together. Aren’t you going to miss me at all?’ He nimbly rolled on top of her and began kissing her neck.
    ‘Some parts more than others,’ Charlie teased, enjoying the feeling of his body against hers and wiggling her hips provocatively.
    ‘You mean you don’t want me for my mind? Just my body?’ He ripped off the sheet and revealed her naked body. His lips grazed against her already-erect nipples as he kissed her breasts and then continued further down. By the time he had arrived between her legs, Charlie was incapable of thinking about anything …
    After a leisurely breakfast Felipe suggested that they go to the beach. There they swam and sunbathed. They both felt blissed out after making love, dreamily content. Captain Jack was preparing to take another group out on a trip and, catching sight of Felipe and Charlie, gave them a big wave. He then tapped meaningfully at his ring finger.
    The couple laughed, but Captain Jack’s comments had given them both pause for thought. Felipe had never imagined he would get married, despite his ex-girlfriend’s best efforts to try and get him to propose. He had never seen the point of marriage and had always doubted he would ever meet someone he would want to marry. He was convinced that he would feel suffocated by the very idea. But maybe that was because he hadn’t met the right person until now … Meeting Charlie had caused him to question those beliefs. He could see that there was something wonderful about loving someone so much you were prepared to make a life-long commitment. Not that he was going to say that to Charlie just yet, it would most likely make her run a mile!
    Charlie, meanwhile, was wondering what Felipe thought of Captain Jack’s prediction. Did he think it was something the captain came out with to any couple he met, all part of his larger-than-life skipper act? Or did he think there was more to it than that, as she did? She looked over at Felipe. His hands were folded behind his head, showing off his fine profile. She wanted to drink it all in, so she could remember this moment when she was apart from him. He caught her looking and said, ‘I’m tied up with work for a couple of weeks when I get back, but I promise to come over to the UK as soon as I possibly can.’
    ‘Sure, that would be great.’ She sounded casual, when already she was thinking it would be torture not to see him every single day. It seemed crazy to admit this, after merely a week, but Felipe was wrapped round her heart. She couldn’t imagine not being with him.
    He reached out for her hand. ‘Hey, I promise I’ll come over. I really want to see you again, Charlie. I’m not like TFB.’
    ‘I know,’ she said quietly. ‘It’s just, I think I’m going to miss you.’
    ‘You think!’ Felipe exclaimed, sitting up. ‘How can you lie there so cool, so offhand, so calm? I
know
I’m going to miss you.’ And he ducked
