Her touch was generating a reaction, all right—waves of lust and a hot charge going straight to his groin. Not only had she just won this challenge, she’d left him in the dust.

He took hold of her waist and pulled her closer. Their lower bodies collided. Rory widened her eyes as his growing erection pressed against her.
“Don’t even think about telling me I didn’t prove it.” A husky note still entwined her voice.
“You proved it. Tech talk can be sexy…when you do it, at least.” He slipped his hand under her chin and tilted her face up to his. “But it doesn’t make me want to kiss you.”

“For the record,” she whispered, her breath brushing his lips, “if Iwerelooking for a relation—”
“Hellooo!” Outside, a car door slammed.
Rory’s eyes widened. Grant couldn’t think past the heavy thump of his heart.
“We’re here!” His mother’s voice sang through the air. “Are the lovebirds home?”
