for her to push herself even closer.
Their kiss deepened. Her mouth opened and she relaxed into his warmth. He tasted both sexy and sweet and she felt a little surge of something – something she hadn’t felt in years.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t kissed anyone after Joe had left. Truth was she’d kissed quite a few. But none of them had felt right. Most of them she’d just wished to be over. None of them had made the blood rush through her veins the way it was doing now. None had lit a fire in her belly like the one that was burning right now.
He moved his hands, releasing her head and sliding both hands on to her hips, anchoring her even closer to him. She felt herself smile underneath his kisses and after a few seconds he was smiling too, stopping for a second so they could both come up for air.
He bumped his forehead against hers and let out a sexy laugh. “Well, I guess that got things out of the way.” His eyelashes flickered against her face, tickling her cheek. His gaze was downwards, directly into her cleavage.
She let out a laugh herself. “It certainly did. Adam Brady, did you have an ulterior motive for getting me to wear this dress?”
They were still locked together. It was the first time, in a long time, she hadn’t felt self-conscious. It was the first time, in a long time, she’d felt comfortable in someone’s arms.
He lifted his dark eyes to meet hers. “Busted.” His cheeky grin stretched from one ear to the other. His voice was husky. “I would have spent all night wondering just when to do that. I’d already spent most of dinner thinking about it.” He gave a little shrug. “It seemed easier just to do it now.”
“What – get it out of the way? See if you really wanted to take that walk in Marietta with me?” She was teasing him because he still hadn’t let her go. She didn’t have any doubt that Adam Brady was exactly where he wanted to be.
It was weird. Usually after a first kiss there was that moment of hesitation – wondering if the person had the same reaction that you had. This time she didn’t doubt it for a second. She could see the little pulse racing at the bottom of his neck.
Adam was trying to appear casual. Trying to be laid back. But they could probably light up the whole parking lot with the amount of hormones flooding through them both.
He leaned back a little against the car. “Oh, I definitely want to take that walk.” He pulled open the handle behind them and stepped away from her, opening the door to let her climb in.
She was surprised by how much she missed the feel of his body against hers. It was ridiculous. But his eyes hadn’t left her, so she moved slowly. She was more than capable of getting in a car, but the dress restricted her movements and she had to slide in bottom first, then swing her legs around.
Adam closed the door with a shake of his head. “You’ve no idea how much I like that dress.” He laughed as he walked around to the other side.
The drive only took five minutes and he parked in the main street. “Where to?”
She looked around. There were a few people around and it was still warm out. Grey’s was more a jeans kind of place. Her red dress might raise a few eyebrows. She wasn’t quite sure she was ready for that.
But something told her it was now or never. As soon as they were spotted together, Marietta would talk. Before, she’d always been uncomfortable about the topic of gossip. But with Adam? It didn’t feel quite so scary. She might even want people to talk. Want other women to know that she was the person he was seeing.
He came around to help her out the car as she slid her legs out, keeping them tightly together. It was easy to take his hand as he helped her out. It was even easier to end up back in the position she had before, bumping right up close to him.
The walk into Grey’s was the most self-conscious of her life. But Adam didn’t seem to notice. Or if he did, he handled it well. He slipped
