GOD. LEVI WAS kind of irresistible when he cut loose. Ashley suddenly understood how he’d cut a swath through the female ranks. It would help if she could slap a Post-it note on his forehead. Something she could look at to remind herself of all the reasons getting involved with him was a bad idea. The first note would read emotionally unavailable. And then she’d need notes for off-limits, commitment-phobic, and voted most likely to never have feelings.

Levi was six feet two inches of hard, hot SEAL and bad boy attitude. He’d put out for every female in a hundred mile radius—except for her. Except for that one super brief, really embarrassing, scorchingly hot encounter in a very nasty alley in Sacramento, California. A moment that still featured prominently in her mental “best of” sexual highlights tape. What she needed to remember was that she was one of the boys—and the moment she slept with one of the boys, she’d move from team member to girlfriend. She’d worked too hard to risk that.

“Sun’s going down,” he drawled, sounding delighted. She knew what was next. Since she didn’t feel like admitting to defeat, she pretended acute fascination as the pathway lighting came on and the spider monkeys up in the trees started in on making a ruckus. The birds calling back and forth made decent camouflage, as well.

“So?” She’d bet he knew the precise moment the sun was scheduled to hit the horizon. That kind of information was his stock in trade. Plus the dive watch strapped to his wrist looked as if it could launch nuclear submarines.

He patted her on the back. “So, you owe me a second drink.”

Rats. She’d be regretting that particular dare for the rest of her life.

She stopped walking. Might as well get it over with now, because she doubted he’d be breaking his vow of celibacy in the next thirty seconds on a very public, very uncomfortable path. What had she been thinking?

You weren’t thinking at all. You were just pissed off.

She was fairly certain she’d be more careful in the future. “So what are you choosing?”

“You want to do it right here?” Levi made a show of looking around. Yeah, yeah. She got it. He thought he was in charge and the one calling the shots, which made it practically public service on her part to put him in his place.

“I’m going to win tomorrow,” she informed him.

“Keep telling yourself that, babe.” He didn’t sound concerned. Of course when you were a big, strapping SEAL, you probably didn’t have to worry all that often. She got the impression he hadn’t run into too many situations that he couldn’t control. She couldn’t wait to turn the tables on him.

“Pick a drink or shut up.” Her forfeit didn’t include listening to him run his mouth. Or nicknames. “And try using my name.”

“Dixon,” he said cheerfully. “Nope. It’s not working for me now that I’ve seen your panties.”

He was just trying to get a rise out of her, she reminded herself.
