luggage into the room. “But first, I need you to get into some clothes if you expect me to be gentlemanly.” He pointed to her suitcases.
                  She shrugged. “I’ll get into jeans but I’m kind of hoping you won’t be a perfect gentleman.”
                  He poured them each a glass of wine while she changed her clothes in front of him and the smiles and suggestive looks couldn’t be contained. “Not fair,” he shook his head and tried to look away, unsuccessfully. “Jaxie...” He advanced and stopped her from pulling the jeans up any further. They stood staring into each other’s eyes, asking permission, and giving themselves to each other.
                  She stepped out of the jeans and kissed him, deep, exploring him with her tongue. It was everything she could do to not tell him how she felt. Kissing him like this, was as good as she’d imagined while lying in her bed in the Bachelor mansion. Better. He kissed like a god-damned wet dream and she felt her knees go weak. Luckily Crane had a hold of her and they moved to the bed. He lowered her to the chenille bedspread and lowered himself onto her waiting body. She unbuttoned his jeans and yanked them down in one felt swoop. They grinned at each other like college kids.
                  “You okay with this, because another minute and I don’t know if I can stop,” he asked.
                  “You better not stop.” Jaxie’s eyes widened and she pulled his face to hers.
                  They undressed each other hastily, sliding over each other, tasting, grinding, unable to contain the primal emotions that had risen.
                  When he slipped inside her, the look in his eyes said pure heaven and Jaxie felt the same way. All she could think about was how right it felt to have Crane in her, becoming a part of who she was. They reached a climax too soon but she knew there would be many more moments like this and years of making love with David Crane to look forward to.
                  Later, they lay in each other’s arms, enjoying the closeness they’d both craved for the last two weeks. “You said you had a secret. What is it?” She left the bed to retrieve their glasses of wine that had been abandoned in a frenzy of sexual precedence.
                  “Firstly,” his eyes twinkled at the sight of her naked body. He took his glass as she slipped in beside him. “I guess you could tell that I have a fierce hankering for you.” He motioned to his crotch area and smiled. “And I got this crush the first time I saw you on T.V. which was about five months ago.” He paused to let her do the math. “You were doing a restaurant review in Seattle.”
                  “What?” She stopped with the goblet midway to her lips.
                  “I was in Seattle on business, saw you on T.V. in my hotel room, asked around and found out you were Brent’s girlfriend. I was disappointed but not overly so. Still, there was something about you that just reached through the screen and grabbed me by the heart. I couldn’t stop thinking about you when I got back to L.A. a few days later.” His eyes looked misty. “You were talking about an Italian restaurant and describing their cannelloni. Do you remember?”
                  She nodded. “I loved their lobster cannelloni.”
                  “Yes, the lobster, and you were laughing with the anchor man about the little claws on the lobster and you got giggling and couldn’t contain yourself.”
                  “Oh, God, that was so funny and so unprofessional. But so funny.” She thought she might’ve been fired for that moment until the station got so many calls that night about making the whole of Seattle laugh along with them.
                  “I tried to forget you and thought I did a pretty good job. But
