Holy crap.
That wasn’t my inner voice.
He arches an eyebrow and a wide grin stretches his lips.
Whoa. Bring it down or you’ll blind me with that dazzling smile.
How can his smile be brighter than the sun?
“If we’re exchanging compliments, little lady…” He sweeps the length of my body with those hypnotizing eyes of his. “Hot damn, yourself.”
Even his voice is sexy.
That drawl… Oh,sosexy.
I feel my cheeks—and other more private parts of me—heat up.
I avert my gaze before he notices the effect he has on me.
“I mean, hello.” I attempt to save face.
“If you’re gonna say hello, you need to look me in the eyes.”
I shift my gaze back to his. “Hello.”
A teasing glint hits his eyes.
Mr. Sexy Stranger steps closer to me and leans in. “Better… but I much preferred, hot damn.” He blesses me with another heart-palpitating smile.
A silly grin finds my lips.
My insides melt like a block of cheese under the grill.
I bite my lower lip to contain my giddiness.
Summerville men are so freaking charming.
“You wouldn’t be able to help me with somethin’?”
“It all depends on what,” I say.
“Word has it?—”
“Hey, hey, hey.” A booming voice interrupts him. “Look who the devil rolled back into town. How’s it going?” The newcomer slaps Mr. Sexy Stranger on the shoulder.
“Hello, Mr. Devon,” he says never taking his eyes off me.
With a turn of my stomach, I stare right back at him.
This is so unlike me.
“You back on your feet?” The tall silver bearded man with steel blue eyes says.
Mr. Sexy Stranger breaks our gaze.
Darn.
“I am.”
