Chapter Seven

BEN TANNER HAD picked the wrong woman to mess with. Because Heidi was in a serious don't-mess-with-me mood. She'd struck out and let her teammates down, a minor offense. She'd threatened to smack Ben again, although teasingly.

She was acting the jackass in front of people who for years had expected nothing better from her—and when she'd been so determined they'd walk away from this weekend having changed their minds.

But more than any of those don't-mess-with-me reasons causing smoke to pour from her ears was that she was standing here with out-and-out lust on her mind.

And that made her angry—at herself, at Ben, at the way hormones and old times couldn't keep their hands off one another.

It wasn't a nice lust, either. It was a lust with bedroom potential. A lust begging her to explore. This man. His body. His body with hers. She couldn't believe that sex was what this weekend was coming down to. Not when she'd arrived in Sherwood Grove with purely adult goals and motives.

What? Like sex doesn't fit that category?

She was so out of her mind. If only Georgia could see her now. No, she needed to keep Georgia out of this. The other woman would only cheer Heidi on, then gloat with a big bad I-told-you-so.

Besides. It was time. They'd reached the midpoint of the weekend. And Ben was the reason she was here. She pulled in a deep breath, blew it out in a slow long stream.

And then she said, "You got my IOU on you, Ace?"

Ben took a minute to react, and his reaction was all Heidi had expected. He took her by the shoulders, his fingers slipping beneath the rayon fabric of her sleeveless white blouse, and then he was the aggressor, spinning her up against the backstop fence.

"I can have it on me—" he glanced at his dusty watch face "—in an hour. No, forget that. Come home with me. We can be there in thirty minutes."

What thrilled her most was that he was serious. Urgently serious. What made her stomach burn was that he was serious. Deadly serious.

Oh, he was serious. And she was going to be sick. He wanted her, this man, this man who had been an intrinsic part of her life since she was fifteen years old, wanted her.

And she wanted him. Here, on this ball field, in front of God and the opposing team. She wanted to make love with Ben Tannen. His nostrils flared, his eyes blistered and Heidi was lost in the fog of his heat.

She wanted to bathe him, to wash the dirt and grime from his body, to touch his wet skin, to feel him in soapsuds, to smell all the male parts so clean and so luscious.

She wanted to undress him, to slowly peel away his bandanna and finger the texture of his hair, to flip open the buttons of his fly, to see how he looked in nothing but briefs, to see how he looked in nothing at all.
