SIMON WOKE TO A SENSATION he’d never felt before in his life. Maya was wrapped in his arms, all that glorious hair splayed over his chest and her head tucked sweetly under his chin.

And the weird sensation?

He struggled to identify it. Finally, he figured it out.

It was contentment.

It scared the hell out of him.

What had he been thinking? She was a suspect. He was using her in a case. He was here to arrest her old man. That made every single thing about this a bad idea. A horribly bad idea.

One that had felt better than anything he’d ever experienced in his life.

Obviously, he hadn’t been thinking at all.

If he had been, he’d have spent the wee hours of the night breaking into Tobias’s house, business and the three rental properties he’d discovered the man owned. Instead, he’d been doing the guy’s daughter.

Freaking unbelievable.

As quickly, and as stealthily, as he could, he pulled his arm from under her shoulders and got the hell out of the bed. Time to go.

In the bathroom, he tried to gather his thoughts, his composure and, dammit, his control. By the time he’d brushed his teeth and ran a comb through his hair, he had a semblance of a plan.

Daytime B&E was out. But he was pretty sure he could still knock a few of Tobias’s properties off his list of possible storage places for the stolen weapons just by doing drive-bys. He’d made contact with the suspect, had established his cover. He was in. He needed to take advantage of that fact. He just had to act professionally, utilize his training and break this case.

And keep his hands off Maya.

Simon gave a silent groan.

It was a sucky plan, but it was all he had.

He still had Maya’s keys. He’d slap on some workout gear, head into town to ostensibly look for the gym he knew didn’t exist. Once there, he’d check out the rentals, see if he could get into Tobias’s home. Then he’d drop in to Tobias’s shop, use last night’s meet as an entrée.

And Maya? His gaze traveled over her form, glowing soft gold in the morning light. Her hair was a striking contrast against the white of the pillow. He recalled the feel of it trailing over his belly, down his thighs. Ruthlessly, he yanked on jeans and snapped them before things got so out of control he couldn’t get the zipper up.

Because if he wasn’t out of this room in five minutes or less, he knew he’d crawl back into bed with her. How much could he do before she awoke? Would she feel his kisses if they were whisper soft over her body? Would she react to his tongue if he gently licked her nipples? His fingers if they tested, teased and tormented her to a hot, wet welcome?

Crap.

Simon shook his head to clear it, then grabbed what he needed and hurried into Maya’s room to finish dressing. Dottie was curled up on the pristinely made bed, purring in her sleep.
