Chapter 12

“My hands are freezing,” Robyn said as she stood next to the truck, tugging one last time on a tie-down. Despite the cold, she enjoyed being outside working with Ben.

“I can help with that,” he said. He took her bare hands between his own, gently massaging them and raising them to his lips to blow warm breath on them.

When she met his eyes, a rush of heat warmed her from the inside out and when he placed her hands against his chest, covering them with his own, she no longer noticed the cold.

“How’s that?” he asked.

“Better.” Her teeth caught at her lower lip, desire flaming and rushing up from between her thighs. The moment became trapped in time, the hardness of his chest, the lust-filled look in his eyes, and his hand warm on her waist despite her bundles of clothing. She raised her face, her lips slightly parted as the core of her filled with an unexpected need.

“Daddy,” Aidyn shouted from the porch. “Can we go yet?”

Robyn dropped her hands as though she had touched a hot stove. Blushing, she stepped away from Ben. This was the first time she’d been attracted to a single dad. Were there rules to be followed? If so, she had no idea what they might be.

Ben’s eyes never left her face. “In a minute, Aidyn,” he said. “Go back inside where it’s warm. It’ll be a few more minutes so take your coat off.” He took Robyn’s hand again, letting her know it was okay for Aidyn to see them together. They strolled back to the house hand in hand as if it were the most natural thing in the world. For Robyn though, there was nothing natural about the way her heart thumped.

Even as she made sandwiches and filled two separate thermos containers of coffee and cocoa, Robyn’s body tingled with desire. How long had it been since a man lit that kind of fire inside her, one that burned like a four-alarm blaze despite the Colorado cold? If it hadn’t been for Aidyn, she might’ve laid down in the snow and let him take her right there.

What had come over her…besides the fact that looking in his eyes stimulated every nerve ending in her body? He exuded strength and confidence. And, like an aphrodisiac, he brought out a frisky side of her she wanted to explore. Her fingers flexed as she remembered the feel of his chest, and a shiver caught her by surprise. She licked at her lips and grinned at her naughty thoughts. For once she should throw caution to the wind, forget about tomorrow, and follow Marilee’s advice. She giggled. She should get her some of that.

She returned to the living room where Ben was busy brushing tangles out of his little girl’s hair, causing Robyn to return to her senses even as her heart melted at the sight. He was a single dad staying here because it was convenient. She didn’t need a broken heart when they left.
