her belly. The heat radiated to her breasts and pulsed to her sex in throbbing waves of awareness. Never had she had such a swift, gut-wrenching reaction to another person.
    Her lips parted and she held back a gasp of admiration when he peeled away his shirt to reveal broad, muscular shoulders. His well-formed biceps flexed as he drew his shirt completely off, then dropped it on the floor. Unbidden, her gaze lowered from his smooth chest to his washboard stomach as he started to unbutton his jeans.
    “I’m way ahead of you,” he said in a light tone, amusement lacing his words.
    Erin’s breathing turned choppy as he unbuttoned his pants and kicked off his shoes before he pulled his wet jeans all the way off.
    When he straightened, she greedily admired his sculpted form—his thick chest, narrow waist, muscular thighs. And to think she’d spent a month dodging his emails.
    Oy! Her gaze traveled over his smooth olive-toned skin, not a single tan line to be seen.
    Oh yeah, Indian! She’d put money on it.
    He was a masterpiece to look upon and his perfection made her even more conscious of her own not-so-perfect body. She’d purposefully avoided looking at his groin. She didn’t want to see the evidence of his lack of desire for her. Her fingers stilled on the buttons of her top.
    “I’ll get undressed in the dark.” She leaned over to blow out the candles.
    “No, Eriana,” he commanded as he approached.
    His intemperate tone stopped her short, but she kept her eyes on the candles, refusing to meet his gaze.
    Warm fingers grasped her chin and tilted her head. “Look at me.”
    The softening of his voice slid over her like a sensual purr, surprising her. Erin met his intense gaze.
    Kian ran his thumb along her jaw line, then traced his fingers down her throat, causing a shiver to race down her spine.
    “I know you have a beautiful mind and now I want to see the gorgeous body that goes along with it.”
    She bit her lip and started to shake her head when Kian reached down and clasped her hand. His gaze never left hers as he took her fingers and wrapped them around his very hard, very impressive erection, while his other hand moved to the buttons on her blouse.
    “We want the same, Eriana , ” he said in a low, husky voice.
    Raw desire reflected in his gaze as he unbuttoned the top button of her blouse, then another and another. Erin’s stomach clenched and her heart raced as he finished unbuttoning her shirt.

    Maybe if she distracted him, he wouldn’t notice her barely indented waist or her less-than-a-handful breasts. She clasped her hand around his cock and smoothed her thumb over the plumb tip, giving him a tentative smile.
    Kian’s breath hissed out and he rocked his hips against her hand several times, his motions primal, but control evident as he ground out, “No.” Grasping her hand, he removed it from his erection.
    Uncertainty swirled through her. Fearing she’d disappointed him, Erin bit her lip and looked away.
    Kian pulled her to her feet. “If we can’t use the fire to warm you, I have a better idea.”
    Before she could respond, he handed her a candle and scooped her up in his arms.
    When he carried her toward the bathroom, she began to struggle. Oh no, a bath? She’d have to reveal her entire body to him. She wouldn’t be able to jump underneath the covers as soon as she was naked.
    “Calm your fears, Eriana. You need to get warm quickly and this is the best way.”
    When he entered the bathroom and she saw he only had a shower stall, Erin panicked. She obviously couldn’t take a shower without his help since she had a hard time just walking. As her breathing increased, her head began to throb.
    “Just give me lots of blankets, Kian. I’ll be fine.”
    He lowered her feet to the floor in the bathroom and took the candle from her hand.
    Setting it on the sink, he shut the door and turned the shower on full blast. As the warm steam began to fill the room around them,
