confession. “But then I got to know you and Casey better, and that changed. I’ve been coming to Leo’s to see you, sunshine. It just took me awhile to admit it.”
He hadn’t intended to say anything yet. He certainly hadn’t planned on kissing her, but when Dani turned her head toward him, instinct took over. He claimed her mouth with his, savoring the silken warmth of her lips. He shifted to the side of her chair, cupping her cheek with one hand as he drew her in closer, craving more of her touch.
Her lips parted beneath his and a low moan vibrated against his mouth as she kissed him back. She reached up and twisted her fingers into the collar of his shirt, pulling him even closer. And with that small action, she broke the last of his control. It had been too long since he’d held a woman. Too many nights spent alone. The walls he’d built to keep the world at bay came crashing down, only to be washed away in a flood of carnal need.
He stood, drawing her up with him until he could pull her into his arms and hold her properly, their bodies crushed together and her soft curves molded against him. He kissed her again, slipping his tongue into her mouth to dance with hers. She reached up with her free hand to touch his face, stroking her fingers through his hair.
They clung to each other for one immeasurable moment with their mouths mated and their bodies intertwined. This was heaven, or as close to it as he’d ever been. Her scent surrounded him and her taste was in his mouth, branding his senses. She was as lost to their attraction as he was, her kisses as demanding, her hands moving over him as she explored his body.
By the time he lifted his head, his cock was throbbing in time to his pounding heart. He didn’t move far, just enough to put a few inches of space between their lips. When he looked down at her, she was staring back with eyes still dark with passion.
He opened his mouth to say something. To apologize for kissing her without permission, but before he could say anything, her kiss-swollen lips parted into a smile.
“And here I’d finally convinced myself that you weren’t interested in me,” she murmured, still smiling up at him.
“Surprise,” he said, then grinned back at her. She was so damned beautiful it took his breath away. She was also strong, smart, and brave. Hell, yeah, he was interested. Only a fool wouldn’t be.

Dani’s pulse was still racing as she settled herself a little deeper into Dave’s arms, unwilling to let the moment end yet. She didn’t remember standing up. She barely remembered her own name at the moment. God, the man had a talented mouth. One kiss and she’d melted like a Popsicle in the summer sun.
“I am. Surprised, I mean. But in a good way, not a bad one. I never expected this, but I hoped that maybe… I may have even fantasized a little—oh God, I said that aloud, didn’t I? I’m babbling. Please pretend I didn’t say that last bit.” She pressed her face against his chest, mortified by what she’d let slip.
“Oh, I heard what you said, sunshine.” His arms tightened around her and he nuzzled the top of her head, the warmth of his breath fanning over her skin. “I like that you’ve been dreaming about me, and one day soon I’m going to want to hear the details. Everything we did, everything you’d like us to do, all of it. But right now, as much as it pains me to say it, I need to let go of you.”
Dani didn’t want to leave the comfort of his arms, but she didn’t want to cling to him, either. She released him with reluctance. “You’re right. You must be hungry and our food is getting cold.”
She went to step away from him, but his arms were still locked around her, holding her firmly in place.
“Uh-uh. I don’t care about the food getting cold. This isn’t about dinner, or needing space, or the fact your daughter and my parents will be here soon. You’ve got me so hot that if I don’t cool off quick, there’s a good
