I'm rock hard.

No, not like that.

When that happens, you won't need me to tell you.




I'm a competitive bodybuilder, ready for my first regional contest. And winning requires more than just killer workouts, diet, or stage presence.




It's all about the tan.




My training partner Franklin "The Brick" uses the best in the business - Camryn Schultz. She understands the career killer of a badly placed white spot.




She's also his sister.




So when the craptastic tan I'm given for my first competition requires an emergency patch, Frank knows exactly who to call.




The thing is, when Camryn's hands hit my skin, more than a few muscles spring to life.




I'm about to head on stage in the tiniest Speedo imaginable and parts of me no longer fit.




What I need to do for my friendship and my future on the circuit is to walk away.




But when Camryn's got her hands on my hard body, there's no way this Pickle is going to get anything but hot.
