With a growl of irritation, he flipped over, rolling onto his back with Lauren sitting astride him. She squealed with the sudden reversal, their bodies never disconnecting. “Making love to you with the lights on is incredible. And since I’m inside you, hard as a rock, and not with any of those other women, I think I’m the best judge of what I like.”
His hands gripped her hips and he started thrusting into her from underneath. Lauren braced her hands on his chest and moved with him. His eyes never left her face and, in seconds, his jaw was tight and his fingertips were pressing insistently into the flesh of her hips.
It occurred to her then that if he really liked to watch her, she might know just how to push him over the edge. Lauren arched her back, loosening her hair from its tight bun and shaking it out until the brown waves fell to her shoulders. Then she ran her fingers through it, thrusting her breasts out as she rocked her hips against him.
He reached out to cover her breasts with his hands and she put her own palms over his. Holding tight, she moved faster, pressing against him for leverage.
“I’m never turning the lights out again...” he said in a whispered groan, his words interrupted by the powerful rush of his release. She rode out the storm, finally collapsing onto the mattress beside him in a state of physical, mental and emotional exhaustion.
This. This was exactly what she’d been craving since their first night together. Not just the pleasure, but the closeness, the intimacy of being in Sutton’s arms. To have him touch her and know exactly what she liked. To hold him close and feel like someone out in the world cared about her. Wanted her. Needed her. It was as though the final puzzle piece of their romance had clicked into place. It was an amazing feeling, and yet, a scary one. Lauren could feel her resistance fading. If she wasn’t careful, she might start to have feelings for him.
If she didn’t already.
Sutton scooped her into his arms and pulled her back against the hard wall of his chest. “Beautiful,” he whispered, planting a kiss on her bare shoulder as they both drifted off to sleep.

“I see you two have made up.”
Sutton and Lauren were sitting at the kitchen island together enjoying their first cup of coffee while her clothes were being washed. After last night, with only a few hours’ sleep, he needed a little perk of caffeine to get through the day. Or he would if he had something to do. He’d happily be in bed asleep if not for Lauren having to get up and go to her trucks.
When he turned his head, he saw his brother Sebastian standing at the bottom of the stairs looking at them. “Good morning to you, dear brother. And yes, we did make up. We made up all night as a matter of fact.”
Sebastian rolled his eyes at Sutton’s oversharing. “Well, good for you, I guess.” He went to the coffeepot to pour his own cup. As he did, his brother’s gaze drifted briefly over to where Lauren was sitting in nothing but one of Sutton’s oversize T-shirts.
“Her clothes are in the dryer,” Sutton explained.
Sebastian shook his head. “I have no problem with half-naked women in my kitchen. I just prefer when they’re mine.”
“It’s fun living with you, too.” He raised his mug to toast to his uptight twin.
Lauren turned toward Sebastian and studied him for a moment before looking back at Sutton. “Did you say that you two are identical twins?”
“Yep,” Sutton confirmed. “Genetically identical, socially opposite.”
“Interesting. Well, now that I have both of you in the same room, I don’t know how I ever confused the two of you.”
“I know, I’m so much more attractive than Sebastian,” Sutton teased.
“It’s not that. You do physically look alike, you just carry yourselves differently. It’s a whole different vibe. Of course, it helped your cause that I didn’t know Sebastian had a twin to begin with. It just seemed like he had a laid-back alter ego or something. You couldn’t fool me now the way you did before.”
“Is that a challenge?” Sutton teased.
“Don’t you dare,” Lauren warned with a pointed finger. “I’ve had enough of those games.”
“Don’t worry, Lauren,” Sebastian said. “Sutton doesn’t like pretending to be me. He has to comb his hair and wear decent clothes.”
“And drive boring cars and talk about boring things,” his twin quipped.
Sebastian sighed. “Do you have any brothers or sisters, Lauren?”
“No. It’s just me.”
“Ahh. Then you will never truly know the depths of what I have to deal with being the oldest of five. Three of them aren’t much trouble, but this one...” Sebastian gestured his thumb at Sutton when he got up to get more cream from the refrigerator. “Trouble from the womb.”
Sutton turned back to the two of them. “I’m a delight. Everyone thinks so, just ask around town. And it’s not like I’m a lost cause crashing on people’s couches and borrowing money. I did a damn good job as the CFO of the family business. Things were booming with the two of us at the helm. And not because we were smuggling drugs in our planes.”
Sebastian groaned. “Can we talk about something else, please? Anything else.”
