thought.
    Lowering himself onto his forearms, Madoc covered Shayna’s mouth with his own, his tongue finding hers as he slowly began to move inside her. Beneath him, Shayna lifted her hips to meet his thrusts, and together, they found the perfect rhythm.
    A part of him wanted to go slowly, but he was so turned on that he knew that wouldn’t be possible. And from the way Shayna was digging her nails into his shoulders, it was likely that she was already close to the pinnacle as well. With a groan, he began to thrust even harder, driving into her more deeply each time. She met him thrust for thrust, her legs squeezing even more tightly around him.
    Madoc had never felt so out of control with a woman in his life, but Shayna made him feel as if he were about to explode as any moment. Somehow, he managed to keep his orgasm at bay until Shayna threw back her head and screamed out with her own pleasure. Only then, did he let go, exploding inside of her in a soul-shattering release.
    Afterward, as they lay together gently kissing and caressing each other, Madoc was surprised to feel himself begin to harden again. He would have thought that it would take hours to recover from such an intense orgasm, but apparently, Shayna had that kind of effect on him. He couldn’t seem to get enough of her. But as he began to trail kisses down her neck to her breasts again, he decided that this time, they would go slower.
    Much later, as he lay in bed with Shayna curled up asleep in his arms, Madoc tried to tell himself that it had been a mistake to sleep with her, but he couldn’t, not when it had felt so incredibly right.
    Shayna awoke the next morning to find herself alone in the small bed. Sleepily brushing her hair back from her face, she pushed herself up on her elbow and looked around for Madoc, but the cabin was empty. He had probably just gone outside for more wood, she thought. Then again, she thought wryly, maybe the sex with her had been so good that the Marshal had changed his mind about bringing her in and decided to let her go. No, she couldn’t be that lucky, she thought as she lay back down. Besides, he wouldn’t have just left her stranded in the middle of nowhere.
    Thinking of the sex they had had brought all the memories of last night rushing back to her. Amazing was the only word she could think of to describe it. Then again, the word, unexpected, came to mind as well.
    To say she had been surprised when Madoc had kissed her was an understatement. Shayna had been just as surprised to find herself kissing him back. But at the first touch of his mouth on hers, all reason and doubt had fled her mind. She had never lost herself to passion like that before.
    But now, in the light of day, a small part of her wondered if she had slept with him in the hopes that he would let her go. Just as quickly, however, she realized that though it would be nice if he did let her go because of it, that hadn’t been the reason at all. The passion that had erupted between them had been real. And it had been magical as well. Madoc had awakened something in her that she hadn’t known existed.
    But what about Madoc? What was his reason for making love to her? Back at the diner, he had made it no secret that he was attracted to her. Had he finally just acted on that attraction, or was there more to it than that? Part of her wanted to believe that it had been more. She couldn’t deny she and Madoc definitely had chemistry together.
    God, why couldn’t she have met him before this whole mess?
    Shayna was just daydreaming about how things might have been between her and the Marshal had they met under different circumstances when the door to the cabin opened. Holding the blanket to her breasts, she pushed herself up on her elbow as Madoc came in. Not sure exactly what to say to him after their romp in bed last night, she nervously chewed on her lower lip and waited for him to take the lead.
    To her dismay, Madoc didn’t say anything right away,
