He carried her to her room, torn between wanting to
hurry and get her soft body out of his arms yet yearning to hold her close for
a while longer. With her honey-blonde hair, sassy smile, and wide chestnut eyes
he had a tough time not falling for her all over again.
He laid her on the bed atop the covers. What was it
about her that tangled his emotions? She was just a woman. There were a billion
of them out there, so why her?
As he attempted to pull back, Robyn clung.
“Joe?”
Man, that soft husk was too much for him to take so
soon after holding her in his arms for the five minutes it’d taken him to ease
her out of the car and carry her—surrounded by her light sexy perfume—to her
room.
“Yeah?” He tried to unhook her arms from around his
neck, but she wouldn’t comply.
“Kiss me.” She exhaled a slow, shattered breath.
Everything in Joe stilled. Even the atmosphere in
Robyn’s room paused.
It was the jet lag talking. He knew this, and should
walk away. So why couldn’t he make his feet move? And why was fastening his
lips to Robbie’s the only prominent thought in his mind?
“You don’t mean that.”
“Yes, I do.” Her soft reply prodded at his
self-control, close to poking a hole right through. “I’ve wanted it all
evening.”
Oh, man!
He wanted it, too. Did that make him pathetic? But he
couldn’t kiss her. This was Robbie—the one woman he wanted. Joe wasn’t entirely
sure he’d be able to stop once he started.
“Just
one, Joe.”
