arm around my waist. Without his support, I would have hit the floor hard.
Whoa. Steady there.
My breasts pressed against his chest, our faces only inches apart. I smelled
the remnants of the gourmet delivery surrounded by subtle hints of alcohol.
Desire swelled within me, and I weakly fought it into submission, though it
would not die without a struggle. I saw a hint of lust reflecting in his eyes and
prayed I didn t imagine it.
Josh s gaze dropped to my lips before travelling to meet my eyes again.
No. Not imagined at all.
You re so young, I said softly.
Twenty-six. Not that young.
Fifteen years my junior. A full generation between us. The realization didn t
stop me from wanting him to lower his face to mine and devour my mouth in a
kiss.
He brought his mouth to mine, brushing it with the gentlest caress that sent a
shiver rippling through me instead. I ached for more and released a soft
whimper of protest when he didn t give in to my wants. Intense green eyes
searched mine before he said, Not like this, Regina.
The use of my first name brought the reality of this evening crashing into me.
He didn t understand. This was exactly how I needed it. How I wanted it. With
this lonely life, I d earned the right to throw responsibility out the window and
let my id run rampant. I d promised Patrick I would live. And I wanted to do so
now.
I threaded my fingers into Josh s short brown hair and brought his lips to
mine. I opened my mouth against his, the urgency of connecting to him on a
physical level driving me until I knew nothing else. It crossed my mind only
seconds after our tongues connected that he might reject me. When he breathed
into me, tasted me, that thought shattered.
Finding his unoccupied hand, I brought it to my breast, offering more than
just a kiss to him.
You re tempting, Josh muttered after breaking away. So very
tempting& but you ve also been drinking.
I licked his bottom lip. I m fully aware of what I m doing.
I need you to be able to say that in the morning. He kissed me again. I
won t be satisfied with just one night.
Guiding his hand beneath my shirt, I let him touch my bare skin. But what
an amazing one night it could be.
