word.
    The waiter nodded, smiled at Evie , and then left in a hurry. Kyle handed Evie one of the spoons.
    “So what are you up to?” asked Evie.
    “Nothing bad, really. And at least try one spoonful of this trifle,” he said.
    “If I split my dress I’m holding you responsible.”
    Evie dug into the custard and cream and put it into her mouth. Just watching her do that was both pure agony and delight because she even made eating seem sexier than hell.
    “Good , isn’t it?” he asked.
    “You’re right . I t’s divine.”
    “Go on, have another bite.”
    She did so without hesitation , and Kyle dug in as well. It really was refreshing to see a woman who wasn’t afraid to eat. And Evie had nothing to worry about in the weight department. She had curves , which he liked a lot. She ’d felt s exy and warm in the elevator. He knew it was wrong because they were only in the getting to know you phase , but he couldn’t help wonder ing what she looked like completely naked.
    The door opened , and three musicians strolled in carrying guitars and a keyboard. Kyle had requested they play a few tunes for him and Evie in the privacy of the room.
    “I didn’t want you missing out on the music because you were stuck in here,’ said Kyle.
    They beg an playing , and Evie smiled , which gave him another idea. He didn’t know whether she wanted to or even liked dancing , but he was about to find out. He stood and offered her his hand.
    “You want to dance?”
    She stood. “One of my favorite things to do.”
    “Me , too.”
    Soon they were cheek to cheek , her hand in his, her arm around his neck, his around her waist. Perfect. Once again he couldn’t help himself. He was rock hard , and he guessed she knew that as he pulled her in close to his body. The familiar smell of her perfume rose up to greet him , and he snuggled with her some more. Kyle took in the scent of her hair. It smelled like a summer’s day after a rainfall. Fresh, light , intoxicating. He closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them as they moved around in the small space they had in this private room. He wished they could stay like this forever. She ran her fingers along the back of his ne ck , and it made his body tingle. In fact , he thought he’d gone to heaven.
    Right now he wanted to make love to her more than anything. Make love. I didn’t call it sex. It’s been a few days of firsts for me.
    Kyle was tempted to kiss her , but the three guys were looking straight at them. Could they be trusted not to t ell everyone that Kyle Daley and Evie Winters had been dining at Ghiderelli ’ s and had kissed as they’d serenaded them?
    For once in his life , he’d take a chance. He put his mouth on Evie ’s and pulled her in as close as she could get. She tasted of a mixture of tiramisu and strawberries , which he had guessed was the flavor of her lip gloss. Intoxicating combo , but then Evie was spellbinding herself.
    He pulled away , and they looked at one another without saying a thing. He maneuvered her around, making sure they didn’t bump into a nearby chair. He ran his hand down her back , and yes, over her butt.
    A man only has so much restraint.
    He smiled because by the feel of things she was wearing the garter belt he’d sent earlier that day. Kyle couldn’t wait to see her in it, to take it off her body…
    “I don’t know about you , but I’m about ready to leave,” he whispered.
    “Me , too.”
    “Is it okay if we take the limo back to your place?”
    “To see if we can find more things we have in common?” she asked.
    She gave him a naughty look, raising one eyebrow and grinning. It was a look he’ d never seen on her face before but hoped he’d see again and again.
    “I ’m sure we’re going to find a lot more . I’ll let the driver know we’re ready , and I’ll pay the bill.”

    With their past history, Evie couldn’t believe that she was opening her front door and invitin g Kyle into her home.
