Chapter Ten

Marcy woke against a warm body.

A warm, naked body.

There was a sheet over them, pulled up from the edge of the bed, but she was definitely naked, and definitely naked next to Tate Verhoven.

Whom she’d had sex with.

I don’t know how to feel about this.

Tate was still sleeping lightly. He looked sexy and sweet just lying there. His shaggy brown hair had the “just-fucked” look to it, and Marcy laughed. She’d never really seen a guy sport that before, and it looked really good on him.

She had looked really good on him, too.

That thought was welcome, but real trouble. She’d only had sex with Carl, but she’d a few heavy petting sessions with previous boyfriends, and she knew that it was a lot of fun.

Sex was a lot of fun.

She was safe far away from the horrible person that Carl was, and safe in the arms of someone who…cared for her. Cared about her. Let her just ride him. Let her lead the way.

Somehow, Tate had known that was what she needed this first time out. It had been three years since she’d lost her son, and she wanted to like sex—for it to be more like what she’d read in all the romance novels Mama had hidden in the den. He was a perfect gentleman, with just the right amount of filth.

Because now that she’d been on top, she couldn’t wait to be under him.

A hand snaked through sheets and found her there, trailing across her arm, her side, and finding her breast. Tate’s fingers stroked the side absently.

Tate was definitely a breast man.

And she really liked that.

Heavy with sleep and sexual satisfaction, his eyes cracked open and a smile rested on his lips. “Hey.”

“Hi.”

“I really like your breasts.”

“Noted.”

“Do you always walk around braless under sweatshirts?”

Marcy grinned. “I’ll never tell.”

“Can I try to guess when you do?”

“Does it mean we’ll probably end up naked and doing each other?”

“Probably.”

“Deal.”

Tate’s small chuckle shook the double bed. “This is nice.”

“I agree.” She grinned, and her finger found the smooth skin of his pecs.

“Are you…okay with all of this?”

Marcy narrowed her eyes and gave him a generally confused look. “Okay with what?”

With a one shoulder, he offered a shrug. “Sleeping with your sister’s ex?”

Marcy laughed. “Are you okay with this?”

Confusion spread across his features.

“You just slept with your ex’s sister.”

“Ah, yes. Well. Turnabout is fair play, I guess.”

She must’ve let some concern wrinkle her brow, because Tate leaned in closer and wrapped an arm around her waist.

“You said it. You’re not your sister. And you shouldn’t worry about me comparing the two of you. This is going to sound strange, but I’m not the same Tate she knew.”

“Thank you.”

“For what?”

“Being honest. For being patient. You knew just what I needed.”

“Everyone always needs a good shagging.”

Using her finger, Marcy tapped his nose. “You know what I mean. You’re the first person who’s touched me more than just a pat on the shoulder or hand. You listened when I said no.”

“This time.”

Shaking her head, she brushed at a few strands of hair that had gotten in the way.
