formed by her breasts pushed together by the towel. “Like I said, I’ll take care of it for you.”
    She paused, watching him with hands on hips. He could have sworn she was getting even closer to him, but he didn’t know if his sexual excitement was just causing the air between them to shrink. He had a semi hard-on already and the woman hadn’t even touched him. His mind was spinning and he had to get out of the bathroom before he did something he regretted.
    “You sure as hell better,” she said. “Luke, fucking kiss me.”
    It took a moment for the words to sink in. He looked at her with wide eyes, brain struggling to match the words with the woman in front of him. He was dreaming this...he had to be.
    “Seriously?”
    “Do it now before I change my mind.”
    It wasn’t the line he normally got but, he’d take it. He grabbed her face in his hands and pressed his lips to hers in a greedy, passionate kiss. She received him eagerly. He suspected she’d wanted this since the beginning, but was too much of a hard-ass to admit it to herself. Pinpricks of pleasure erupted all throughout his body as they kissed deeply and urgently, and he actually felt his knees get a little weak. This woman completely intoxicated him.
    They broke for air and stood panting, looking at each other.
    “Just one more,” she said, looking thoroughly frazzled. “But then you never bring this up or come near me again.”
    “Oh, so this is just a taste test?” He ran his hand down from her cheek to the dip in her neck; her eyes fluttered shut.
    “Call it what you want,” she said. “But this is it. Then I’m done.”
    He leaned in to kiss her again but she dodged it, looking him in the eye. “Deal?
    “Anything you want, babe.” If that was the case, he’d do it right. He guided her back toward the countertop and pinned her against it. She was watching him with eager eyes, lapping up all of it. She inhaled sharply as he took her into his arms. His heart tightened, catching him off-guard. He wanted this more than he’d thought.
    Her lips were soft and just as eager to receive him; they kissed again, their kiss melting into more kisses and even more kisses. When they broke, Luke knew without a doubt that there was no way in hell he’d be satisfied with this one encounter.
    “I said one kiss, not eighty,” she said breathlessly.
    “Sorry, babe. It must be this towel, it’s driving me crazy.”
    She paused and then cracked a smile. “And why’s that?
    “Because it is hiding something I would give anything to see.” His lips drifted over her collarbone. She took his chin in her hand and directed his face toward hers. She put her lips over his, kissing him hard.
    Luke let down his guard and kissed her the way he’d wanted to kiss her, not the way he did when he was betting or just trying to get to sex. His kisses were slow, thorough.
    He gripped her hips and set her on the countertop, pressing himself between her legs. Luke knew in that instant he wanted to have her right there. He tilted her head back and tasted her neck, her collarbone, kisses growing more urgent the lower he went. This woman was making his mind spin.
    He felt her relax beneath his grip, felt her give in completely to the feeling. And to his luck, she was responding with equal gusto. His hand searched out the rim of the towel, anxious to see what lay beneath the fabric. He found it and it started to slip around her. She gasped and grabbed the towel.
    “Luke!”
    He blinked slowly, their broken kiss still weighing heavily on his mind. “What?”
    “I said a kiss. Not a free-for-all.”
    He looked away but was distracted by the lush slope of her breast. So maybe he’d gone a little far, gotten a little greedy. “I’m sorry... I got out of hand...”
    She glared at him, breathing heavily, the haze of arousal leaving her eyes. “Listen, don’t ever do that again. You took advantage of me.”
    His eyes almost popped out of his head. “ I took advantage
