completely still,
leaving just her and Logan.
    His
dark eyes met hers and she saw the same passion she remembered from their night
together. Her breath caught, and in that instant she wanted him again, wanted
to go with him to see if there was something more…if there could be more to
this than just one night of lust. But he’s your client.
    “Aye,
sometimes I do. I just might believe it happened to me…at least I want the
chance to find out. Do you want the chance to find out, Melody?” Logan’s voice
was low, the smooth voice she remembered, the one that did magical things to
her.
    Logan
was still holding her hands when the waiter arrived with their dinner. Logan
spoke without looking away from Melody.
    “Have
dinner sent to my room, please. And a bottle of Macallan, the best year you
have.”
    Melody
was unable to hold back a laugh. “I should have known you’d pick the restaurant
in your hotel. I was too distracted by being late to even notice.”
    Logan
smiled as he rose, pulling her up from her chair. “You can’t fault me for
trying. And unless you’re starving, I think there’s a better use for our
evening, don’t you?”
    Impulsively
Melody stood on tiptoe, kissing Logan. “I do at that, Mr. MacKenzie.”
    It
was Melody who reached back for the half-empty bottle of red wine.
    “Never
leave the wine, even for a handsome wanton man. I heard someone say that…or
something like that…not too long ago.”

    Logan
let them into his room, tossing the key on a side table. Melody set the wine on
the coffee table, surprised at the modest size of the suite, just a small
sitting area with a bedroom visible through a door to her right.
    “This
isn’t quite…somehow I expected something bigger.”
    Logan
had turned on a few lamps, lighting the room in a glow. As he walked toward
her, she took in everything about him, how the light caught his dark eyes, with
the ever-present hint of a smile, the high cheekbones, straight nose. And those
lips. God, he’s handsome.
    “I
don’t need all that much…just a bed and a closet. I’d rather spend my money on
good Scotch and good food…” He reached out, one hand slowly caressing Melody’s
arm.
    “Or
you, if I had the chance. I’ve never really had a woman to indulge. Might be
something we’d both enjoy.”
    “I
can’t believe you’ve never had a girlfriend. None at all?” The touch of his
fingers on her skin was setting a small fire alight deep inside. As handsome as
he was, and as much as she was attracted to Logan, she was suddenly shy,
nervous. It was easy to be brazen in the crush and noise of the restaurant, but
here, alone in his room, with his intentions clear, Melody found herself
unsure, hesitating. That he was her client complicated matters tremendously. Unethical,
goes against everything you stand for…but only if someone finds out.
    “None
serious, no. There are always girls around, hangers on, groupies you’d call
them. Nothing serious there. I can’t say I’m immune to them; probably bedded
more than I should have.”
    “Any
recently?” Melody tried to bite back the words, but it was too late.
    Logan
pulled her to him, his arms going around her waist. “No, not a one since you.
Don’t want anyone but you. The others…usually I was just tired of being alone
on the road. Sad reason to bed a woman, but there it is.”
    Melody
could feel the warmth of his body against hers, his strong arms holding her.
She looked up, lost herself for a moment in his eyes. He leaned down, his lips
soft as he kissed her. But beneath the gentleness of the moment, she sensed his
arousal, the passion from their first encounter barely contained beneath the
surface.
    Her
body remembered this feeling, his lips on hers, his hands on her body. But she
wasn’t drunk this time, and the voice in her head that had been absent—or
a sodden drunk—last time, spoke up, loud and clear. This is uncharted
territory and it’s not safe…it’s wrong on so
