All he wanted was a long, hot shower and a long, deep sleep. Meaning that whoever this pissed-off brunette was, whatever deal she’d arranged with his flaky mother, they could talk about it after he’d scrubbed the jungle from his skin and rinsed the shampoo from his hair. “What do you mean it belongs to you? It can’t belong to you. I just rented it,” said the girl aiming that pink blow-dryer right at his heart. If he wasn’t so damn exhausted, he might find that funny. She was holding the thing as if it would protect her. It was a blow-dryer! He nodded at it. “What do you plan to do with that thing, honey? Style me to death?

I don’t want you to go back to Miami already.” “You don’t? You could have your house all to yourself.” Her voice was whisper soft. “I don’t want my house all to myself. I like you in it. I like watching the yoga.” “You could get cable. They have lots of yoga shows on cable.” He moved a little closer, and she stretched her legs out in front of her. “It would be quite the same as watching it live,” he said.

Something witty and persuasive, but she turned at precisely the same moment he did, with invitation in her eyes, and all he could come up with was, “Damn, I really want to kiss you.” Her hesitation was a mere fraction of a second. “Me too,” she whispered. It was all he needed to hear, and in an instant she was in his arms. He kissed her, hard, with no prelude, no artful negotiations or seductive machinations. Just hungry kisses that sent his mind spinning and his body following. She kissed him back with equal enthusiasm, with one hand on his chest and the other wrapped tightly around the back of his neck, pulling him closer. Her mouth was sweet, as sweet as he’d imagined, with lips so soft he could have fallen over the edge of that lighthouse and thought the sensation was just from her touch.
