I swear they called 911 about 20 pages ago. Anybody waiting for help in this town is apparently SOL!!!

Please just wait, the police are on the way—” It was a waste of breath. Easton was already pushing to his feet, and the hard mask on his face sent a shiver up her spine. She’d never seen this side of him before, the stone cold operator inside the devil-may-care man she’d known for so long. He was going out there no matter what, and nothing she said or did would change his mind.

I’m going to punish you later for this. Severely.” “Oooh, can’t wait.” “Pervert.” She tipped her head back to glare up at him, but her eyes were brimming with a mix of annoyance and laughter. “I thought you said you’d matured.” “Well, no one’s perfect,” he said with a grin. “But if anyone can tame me, it’s you.

Undoing her seatbelt, she leaned over the console and kissed the edge of that tempting mouth. “Hey, no distracting me while I drive,” he said on a laugh.
“Okay, so pull over.”
He glanced at her in surprise. “Are you serious?”
“Yes. Pull over. Right now.

His hands were warm and sure as they moved over her naked body, tracing the shape of her, everything so much more intense than she’d ever imagined. He was giving her back her confidence, her sexuality, one touch at a time. In his arms she felt safe, worshipped and adored.

All these years, you never did or said anything to let me know.”
“You were married.”
“You came to the wedding.”
“Hated every second of it, but yeah.”
Why would you come and watch me marry another man if you loved me?” “Because I didn’t want to let you down.”
“I’m sorry, that must have been awful. I never meant to hurt you.”
“I know. But I freely admit that was the second-worst day of my life, after my mom died.

She shook her head and he kissed her again to stop whatever she was going to say. He didn’t want her to think, didn’t want her to question this or feel guilty about it. He only wanted her to feel, to give her all the pleasure he’d been dreaming about for so long.

Piper was going to fight this, he was pretty sure. Fortunately for him, he was a professional warrior. Even if she pulled away, he wasn’t giving up. Piper was worth fighting for and he would do everything in his power to win her heart.

Any other objections?” He took her hand, curled his long, strong fingers around hers. “You’re just going to shoot them down one by one no matter what I say, aren’t you?” she said in exasperation, every nerve ending in her body clamoring for his touch. “Yes, ma’am. So. What else you got?” He settled back against the porch swing. “I’m ready. Shoot.

Gazing down into her eyes, he swept a thumb over her chin in a gentle caress, the warmth of his breath ghosting across her damp lips. “You have no idea how damn long I’ve wanted to do that,” he murmured. Piper could only stare. What. The. Hell.
