apart enough to get them to come out for the party. We might have to add a room-service amenity just for them.” He grinned. “We already cover the safe-sex supplies.”
    Shaun didn’t deal with cleaning or setting up the cabins, except in emergencies, but he’d seen the boxes of condoms and lube in the closet behind the office, right beside the stacks of fresh white towels and sheets. Jimmy had mentioned once being thankful that he still had friends in the adult entertainment industry who were happy to send him freebies for the promotional boost.
    Shaun pretended to ponder the idea. “Well, you could always make pancakes for breakfast,” he drawled out. “For forty. Early every morning.”
    Jimmy recoiled in mock horror. “We would serve brunch , not breakfast. And every gay man worth his balls knows that brunch is never properly served before eleven o’clock in the morning.”
    Shaking with suppressed laughter, Shaun held up a hand. “All right, you got me there. So pancakes—”
    “And mimosas!”
    “—which means a liquor license too. So brunch, for forty, at eleven every day. Delivered to the cabins.”
    Jimmy let out a dramatic sigh. “Okay, okay. No room service. But maybe food service….” He glared at Shaun. “And stop trying to distract me. Pool party. Saturday night. Bring your teeny-tiniest trunks.”
    The teeny-tiniest trunks Shaun owned would look like a bedsheet compared to what the resort’s guests usually wore to the pool—when they wore anything at all. But Shaun rolled his eyes and gave up. “All right, you win.” He had to grin when Jimmy let out a whoop like he’d hit a giant jackpot instead of just talked Shaun into coming to party full of hot half-naked men.
    An image flashed across Shaun’s mind of Con, wet and wearing next to nothing, and a shiver ran down his spine.
    Jimmy laughed. “Oh, I know that look. Yeah, there’ll be plenty of eye candy to be had. And unlike most places, you can touch all you want. In fact, it’s encouraged.”
    He winked, and Shaun laughed even as his face warmed, glad that he didn’t have to worry about a blush showing up.
    Jimmy pushed off the desk. “Back to the grind with me. Taking the weekend off except for handling the guests, so I wanna finish up the paperwork. Oh!” He held out one hand, curling his fingers in a classic grabby-hands motion. “You said you had reports?”
    “Sure do.” Shaun pulled the stack of papers off the printer and checked quickly to make sure everything was there before holding them out. “That should be it. Let me know if anything looks off, and I’ll run them again.”
    “Super.” Jimmy tapped the papers on the desk. “See you later, alligator!” He pointed a finger. “Now you gotta say it back.”
    Shaun fought another eye roll as he complied. “After a while, crocodile.”
    Jimmy was still laughing as he headed back down the hallway, but so was Shaun. He tended to do a heck of a lot of that when his boss was around.
    The phone rang, and he managed to compose himself enough to answer.
     
     
    DANCE MUSIC wafted across the grounds in Shaun’s direction as he left his cabin and started toward the office building. Actually, he could hear the same song coming from two directions with a slight delay between them. Apparently Jimmy had set things up so the parties, while separated by a few hundred feet and a dress code, would feel like one big event.
    Shaun tried to ignore his nerves. He knew no one at this pool would be fully nude, though he was sure plenty of skin would be on display. But he’d have friends there. Jimmy had said Cory and Mikey would likely stay there because they preferred to keep their nudity between the three of them. Jimmy would check on the clothing-optional crowd at the other pool off and on but probably keep his own suit in place.
    But Con would be there too.
    Shaun’s stomach clenched at the thought. What was it about Con Brooks that made him feel like a teenager with his first
