she fell straight into his arms.
    “What the hell…”
    She struggled but would never escape unless he allowed her to. He would, of course, if she continued to protest. He wasn’t in the business of forcing himself on unwilling women. Her breasts collided firmly with his chest and he could sense the fight draining out of her. Working with that advantage, he dropped his head, gazing directly into clear hazel eyes that gave her away. She wasn’t nearly as immune to him as she would have him believe, which explained her over-the-top protestations. Even if her eyes hadn’t betrayed her, the pulse beating wildly out of control at the base of her throat told him all he needed to know.
    Empowered, Jonny captured her lips, kissing her bruisingly as raw carnality ripped through his bloodstream. He’d kissed her to make a point but almost regretted his impulse action. Almost, because already the situation was slipping beyond his control and he wanted her so much it was slowly killing him. He’d arrived here today fully in control of himself and his life. Now he had to deal with the knowledge that his father was terminally ill and try to keep the attraction he felt toward this wildly unconventional Brit under control.
    Give me something easy to do, Daniel, like finding a solution to world peace, or a cure for AIDS .
    Her lips remained passive beneath his for a heartbeat. Before he could decide whether or not she really did want him to quit, she expelled a wistful little sigh and returned his kiss with all the determination of an Olympic athlete out to nab the gold medal. Passion radiated from her in waves as her lips parted beneath his. Daniel was right about her. She was one hot babe who had no idea of her own sensuality. Jonny and his brothers were duty bound to put her right on that front.
    He took immediate advantage, his tongue working its way into her mouth where it felt right at home. He deepened the kiss, exploring the contours of her mouth with exacting attention to detail, his hands roaming across her back and sliding down to cup her butt as he did so.
    He ground his erection into her stomach as he held her closer, his mind alive with possibilities. Before he could put any of them into action, Steffi abruptly stopped returning his kiss and closed her mouth so fast that she almost bit the tip of his damned tongue off.
    “Hey, what’s wrong?”
    “This is,” she said, refusing to look at him. “It’s absolutely wrong.”
    “If felt pretty damned right to me.”
    “That’s because you weren’t thinking with your brain.”
    He cocked a brow, taking a risk on being deemed arrogant again. “And you were?”
    “You distracted me for a while, I’ll admit that, but that’s all you are, Jonny, a distraction.” She turned away from him and folded her arms tightly beneath her breasts. “I don’t want you and your brothers doling out attentions to the charity case just to please Daddy. You can forget all about it and go back to Ms. Standish.”
    Once again he elevated a brow. “Jealous, babe?”
    “Not in the least.”
    Before Jonny could think what to say next, she turned toward the door and escaped.
    “Damn it!” he muttered, following after her but keeping his distance. “This absolutely shouldn’t be so damned complicated.”

    “What did you hope to gain from it?” Steffi placed her hands on her hips and glowered at Daniel. “You’ve humiliated me by making it look like I’m incapable of making my own friends.”
    “Oh dear, I’ve upset you.”
    “And then some.” Steffi slumped into a chair and expelled a long breath. “I’m not one of the commodities you enjoy trading.”
    “You weren’t supposed to find out.”
    “And that would have made it better how?”
    “Steffi, my dear, I really didn’t mean to—”
    “Besides, if you wanted to make your sons’ behaviour look more spontaneous, you should have given Jonny more specific orders.”
    He elevated a brow. “Jonny
