Chapter Nine

Dale retrieved two more flutes of champagne from a passing waiter and pressed one into Laura's hand She wasn't doing more than taking an odd sip as she mingled with her guests and he watched glass after glass go flat. He, on the other hand, wasn't using his champagne as a prop. He seemed to be thirsty tonight, the blame for which he placed on Laura, who stood beside him looking even lovelier than usual.

The pale pink number she wore hugged her curves and left her shoulders bare, showcasing her breasts to such perfection that the sight made his mouth dry. Now that she'd braided her hair again, he could obsess over all that bare skin. Her heart-shaped face and delicate jaw angled down to the slim column of her throat, the curve of her shoulders.

And all that cleavage.

He kept going back to the cleavage. Dale just couldn't look at her without being blindsided by the memory of touching her, doing all those pleasurable things that inspired her to the breathy little moans that drove him wild.

When she smiled up at him, just an offhand look while explaining the differences between a romance resort and a singles resort, he felt the conversation slide out of his head.

He'd attended more social events working for ADF than he cared to recall, shmoozing with the members of historic preservation boards, city council members who voted on the proposed project budgets and various fund-raising arts and cultural groups. He knew how to play this game, but tonight he couldn't look at Laura and focus on much but the sight of her.

The major general had mentioned his wife was an avid reader, and Laura zeroed in on that as their topic. She compared Falling Inn Bed to a romance novel that dealt with the journey to happily-ever-after as opposed to erotica stories where characters had sex for the joys of sex alone.

Having never read a romance novel, Dale basically had no clue what she was talking about, and a glance at the major general suggested he didn't either. But Delia's mother seemed engrossed and he ensuing conversation left the men to enjoy a few moments' respite from the constant demands of party chatter.

This break was well earned, too, because Laura had been dragging him through this ballroom all night He'd followed along at her heels, playing date to the reception hostess as if he'd been born to the job. He'd laughed with her guests, supplied her with champagne and stood close enough to admire the view of her cleavage.

Obsession? he asked himself again. Or something more?

Whatever his problem, he'd picked it up at this inn and hoped like hell that three weeks of sexual indulgence at the scene of the crime would cure him.

He wouldn't take that bet After two years of Laura's rejection, a month-long separation and some seriously mind-blowing sex, he shouldn't be this distracted by her. Bottom line, the dating game he usually played had turned into a mating game with rules he didn't understand.
