you say yes?”
    She rested her forehead against his chest and shook her head from side to side. “The suit isn’t enough.”
    “What is?”
    Couldn’t he simply keep kissing her? “A guarantee that you’ll never mooch off of me or leave me in the lurch or try to control what I do.”
    “I can give you that.”
    Carolina wished that were true, but no man could.
    “We’re tied, two to two,” he said, drawing her close again.
    “What’s my next dare?” She was thankful for the distraction.
    “Have an orgasm.”
    She laughed. “You want me to make myself come? Here?” She gestured at the busy city that lay beyond the shelter of the plantings.
    “No. I want you to let me make you.”

    While teamwork will take you most of the way, every organization needs a star player. You’ll know when it’s time to step up…
    “I ’M NOT GOING to have sex—”
    “No sex. Just some fun.” When she hesitated, he added. “Or you can marry me.”
    She rolled her eyes. “This is so unfair.”
    “No, it’s not. Remember, you get to dare me next.”
    That’s right; she did and she could make it a real doozy. She was already hot and bothered; why not let Connor take care of her? Maybe it would clear her head. And at least they were partially screened from the street by the palm trees and plantings in front of the deck and the groupings of potted plants on it.
    “Go for it.” She climbed off his lap. She thought he would kneel down in front of her and lift her hem. Instead he turned her and guided her to take hold of the balcony railing. “Wait—”
    “Hell, no. I’m not waiting.” Before she could react, he’d bent her over and flipped her dress up onto her back. A cool breeze wafted over her newly bare bottom.
    “Connor!”
    “No one will see, I promise. We’re in the shadows here. Let me make you feel good.” Moving close behind her, he reached down and slipped a hand under her thong. Carolina’s breath hitched and she moved against him instinctively. Her head swum with alcohol, making it hard to judge just how exposed he’d made her. With him so close behind her, it would be hard for someone to see any details, but one look at them would tell even the most casual observer what they were doing.
    Did she care?
    His touch made her ache and he had to know how much she wanted him. He nudged her feet apart with his own and she opened to his touch. Soft at first, but growing more insistent, he moved his fingers within her until she panted with need. He reached around to cup a breast with his other hand. Kneading her nipple between his fingers, he brought her even closer to the edge. Carolina longed to have him inside of her, but Connor played with her like he knew all her secrets. He brought her so close to ecstasy she begged him to finish, but he pulled back only to do it again. When he finally dropped to his knees and eased her back against his tongue she gasped and came in wild pulsing spasms. She couldn’t hold in her moans any more than she could stop her slide into ecstasy. When she finally finished, she sank down and Connor caught her on his lap.
    Carolina twisted to bury her face in his shoulder.
    “Hey,” he said softly and lifted her chin. “What’s wrong?”
    She pulled away. She didn’t want him to look into her eyes. What they’d done was far too revealing.
    “Don’t hide from me.” He stroked her hair. “Carolina, you know I love you. I want to spend my life with you. I want to make love to you every day. I won’t hurt you.”
    “I’ve just had too much to drink,” she said unsteadily. She didn’t want to talk about what had happened and she didn’t want to hear his promises. Sam had made plenty of promises. Look how that had turned out. She braced her hands on Connor’s shoulders and stood up. He followed more slowly.
    “What’s my dare?” He watched her set her clothing to rights once more.
    She swallowed down the desire to ask him to make
