He nodded. “I like where this is going.”
She laughed. “Of course, you do. You’re thinking you’re going to get lucky, right?”
He hung his head and then looked up at her from under long, dark lashes. “You got me.”
She laughed again. “Well, that’s okay because you got me. You can consider this a sure thing.”
A little line appeared between his eyebrows.
“Oops! Now I feel stupid. Have I somehow read this horribly wrong?”
“No, no not at all,” he reassured her hurriedly. “It’s me. I have to confess what I was thinking.”
“You do?” She gave him a wary look.
“I was thinking that I should have told you more than I did. I said I’m just passing through, and I am, but I’m going to be in town for a while. At least a couple of months.” He raised an eyebrow.
She was confused. It had been easy when he said he was just passing through. She could sleep with him, and he’d be gone. Simple. Now he was saying he was going to be around for a while. What did that mean? Her thoughts were bubbling and popping before she could grasp them properly. Was he saying it’d be better if they didn’t go home together? She squinted and focused on his eyes—which were so damned beautiful, she wanted to get lost in them. “So, you don’t want to do this?”
“I do want to do this, but I like the possibility of it being more than just one night.”
“No!” She shook her head adamantly. “I can’t do anything more than that. That’s all tonight is about. I’m not in a place where I could or should think about anything more than that. I just broke up with someone, and I have problems at work—problems which are going to start getting much worse on Monday.” She stopped herself, realizing she was talking too much. Instead of continuing, she just shook her head sadly. “It wouldn’t be a good idea.”
He held up a hand. “No, sorry. That’s okay. It was a dumb idea. I shouldn’t have even suggested it.”
She started to get to her feet. She should go.
He caught hold of her wrist and smiled. “Can we just revert to plan A?” His smile was so sexy. He was trailing his fingers up and down her wrist—sending shivers down her spine and the heat rushing through her once more.
She smiled and sat back down. “I like plan A.”
He leaned toward her, and her body responded, the fizziness of the champagne bubbling through her. She ran her tongue over her bottom lip, knowing he was going to kiss her. He leaned closer and ran his tongue where hers had just been. She heard herself gasp. “Let’s get out of here,” she breathed.

Grant put his hand on the small of her back as they made their way out onto the street. The evening was still balmy, but it was cooler out here. He needed the fresh air. The champagne must have gone to his head more than he’d realized. Had he really suggested that he might be interested in more than just tonight? It must have been the champagne. Chelsea was hot, she was sweet and funny, but what in hell had he been thinking? Thank God she hadn’t been interested. She had more sense than he did. She’d insisted this was a one-night deal, and when he’d gone to kiss her, she’d taken him by the hand and suggested they leave.
They walked a little way down the street before she turned to look up at him. “Where are we going?”
“Wherever you prefer. My hotel’s not far.”
She nodded. “Let’s go there, then.” Her eyes sparkled. He wasn’t sure if that was due to all the champagne or whether she was just that beautiful.
When they reached the hotel, he led her through the lobby, and they waited for the elevator. “Are you sure about this?” He didn’t want to ask; he didn’t want to give her the option to back out, but he had to.
She nodded vigorously and stepped toward him, wrapping her arms around his neck. “I am, aren’t you?”
His arms closed instinctively around her. “Totally.” He tightened his arms pulling her soft body against him and sliding his hands down to cup her tight little ass. He lowered his head, unable to wait any longer before tasting her plump, red lips. Her arms tightened around his neck, and she kissed him back in a way that told him she had no doubts whatsoever. She slid her tongue into his mouth and pressed her hips against him. He closed his eyes and ground his hard-on against her, making her moan. At that moment the elevator dinged, and the doors slid open. As they stepped inside Grant couldn’t wait for her legs to slide open and let him in. He pressed her up against the mirrored wall and reclaimed her mouth as the doors closed. As if she’d heard his thoughts, she spread her legs wider and grasped his ass, pulling him against her. Damn, she was hot for him. He pushed up the hem of her dress and rocked his hips, making her moan as she moved in time with him. He slid a finger inside her panties and found just how hot and wet she was.
They sprang apart when the bell dinged again, and the doors slid open. She smiled up at him as he took her hand and led her to his room. He unlocked the door and let her enter ahead of him. She only took a few steps then waited for him to close the door. She leaned against the wall with a smile. “Are you going to offer me a drink?”
He shook his head and closed in on her, pinning her against the wall with the weight of his body. “Do you want one?”
She shook her head. Her gaze locked with his while her fingers fumbled with his zipper. “No.”
“Good.” He slid his fingers into her hair and pulled her head back, giving him better access to her neck. Just as he’d imagined when he first laid eyes on her, he left a trail of open-mouthed kisses across her collarbone and down her throat. He hooked his thumbs inside the neckline of her dress, and to his surprise, she helped out and freed her breasts. His cock ached at the sight of them, plump and full, pushed up over her dress. He ducked his head and took one erect nipple into his mouth. She moaned and rested her head back against the wall. Her fingers had returned to their task and finally freed his cock. He sucked hard on her breast as her small hand closed around him. He needed to be inside her. He pushed her dress up around her waist and then scrabbled in his pocket for a condom. She took it from him, and he closed his eyes and tried to control his breathing while she rolled it on. When she was done, he slid his hand inside her panties, wanting to be sure she was ready. He needn’t have worried—she was soaking wet. He’d thought to take her panties down, but she was in too much of a hurry. She curled one leg around his waist and pulled his head down to kiss him. She’d spread her legs for him, and all he had to do was pull her panties aside and … thrust. She screamed as he drove his cock deep. She was so tight and wet, he thrust again and then stilled deep inside her. He clamped her leg to his hip and braced his other hand against the wall above her head, then began to move. He knew his rhythm, and women loved it. He started slow, and she moved with him, her inner muscles drawing him deeper. She slid her hands around his waist and cupped his ass, urging him on. He smiled and picked up the pace, pounding into her over and over, hurtling them both toward release. She moved with him, faster and faster, as the tension in his body began to build. Pleasure was mounting in the place she held him captive. She was building a ball of fire at the base of his spine; her hands held his ass and kept pulling him deeper into her. His cock grew harder and harder as her inner muscles clenched him tighter and tighter.
She looked up into his eyes. Hers were glazed with lust. “Oh, God, yes.”
