Beach Heat: Stepfamily Secrets Under the Summer Sun

Cars arrive under a relentless midday sun, the beach house open to the salt wind. Marcus steps out first, feeling the heat settle over him while his eyes catch the parade of bare skin on the sand. Claire watches her stepson stretch, the pulse between her legs answering every careless glance. Lena brushes past her stepfather in the narrow hallway and leaves a current neither of them names. Ethan adjusts his shorts and looks away too late. Helen simply observes the restless bodies of the family she married into and feels her own slow warmth.
