Read Online Delightful: Big Sky Pie #3 by Adrianne Lee - Free Book Online

weren’t embarrassed, as if she had sex with complete strangers every day of the week. Let him think what he wanted. She didn’t give a damn. He wasn’t staying in Kalispell. She could get through the couple of weeks that he’d be here and act like an adult, especially since she’d satisfied her curiosity about what it would be like to sleep with him.
    She emerged a few minutes later zipping her skirt. He was still sprawled on the bed, the blanket now barely covering an obvious erection. She liked sex with no strings attached and instinctively knew that he did, too. But he had to understand that this was a fluke. A one-time get-it-out-of-their-systems, breaking of the sexual tension between them.
    She hooked her hair behind one ear. “As far as anyone else is concerned, this didn’t happen.”
    He looked disappointed that it wasn’t going to happen again right now. “If that’s the way you want it, sweetheart.”
    “Don’t call me sweetheart.”
    He pulled off the blanket and tugged on his jeans, commando. “Okay, babe.”
    She rolled her eyes. “I’m not your sweetheart or your babe. I’m not anything to you but some woman you have to work with on your latest assignment.”
    “Whatever you say.” He worked the buttons on his jeans.
    “Good.” Now where had she put her purse? She headed out into the suite, the afterglow of sexual satisfaction giving her a light, airy feeling, as though she could conquer the world with a sappy smile on her face. Having sex with Ice had not only satisfied an itch, but satiated a need for some wild, no-holds-barred, incredible sex, the kind she used to enjoy with Donnie. It was the only thing she missed about him. But today with Ice had topped all those old memories.
    She heard him padding barefoot on the carpet, smelled his aftershave, and felt his presence with an awareness she didn’t want to feel. Where was her purse? Her gaze swept the room, not spotting it. Recalling Ice’s kisses, she couldn’t concentrate. He didn’t kiss like Donnie. No, this man knew how to kiss a woman, how to draw every tremor of joy from her pliant and willing flesh. Or maybe what had made the whole experience so damned great was the sense that they were challenging each other to a sexual duel of who-can-make-the-other-more-turned-on. She had to admit that had been…fun.
    If only she could bottle it and sell it at the pie shop.
    The pie shop. The freezer. Andrea stiffened, the reason she’d shown up here coming back to her with the strength of a teacher bawling her out for getting sidetracked and not doing her assignment. She pivoted, and Ice nearly slammed into her. “Did you or Bobby disable the freezer at Big Sky Pie for the sake of getting some drama started for the pilot?”
    He stepped back, adopting an I-don’t-know-what-you’re-talking-about expression. She didn’t buy it. Not for one minute. The look reminded her of Lucas when he wanted her to believe he was innocent after getting caught red-handed. Ice was about to lie through his perfect, glistening white teeth.
    She glared at him. “I better not find out you did or…or…” Or what? What could she threaten him with? Damn. She should have thought this through before barging in on him, ending up in his bed, and threatening him. She didn’t even have a good exit line. “Or else.”
    “Or else?” He lifted a brow, intrigued or amused. Or both. “What will you do to me? If it’s anything like what you just did, I might be tempted to deserve it.”
    She grew as hot as chili powder and figured she was probably the same color. She stalked to the door, found her purse there, on its side, the contents spilled. Must have dropped it when the kissing began. She grabbed it by the handle, shoved her ejected items back inside, and left, furious with herself and more than a little dismayed.
    She could not let this happen again, could not fall for another guy who was wrong for her in every way…but one. Once was enough. She had to
