Several hours later, Rainie watched as Jake rose to put the DVD away.

He’d tossed the back cushions of his toast-colored sectional onto the floor, leaving the wide bottom cushion for them to lie on side-by-side. It had been a comfortable way to enjoy television, but the evening had reached an end. She’d better head home.

With a sigh, she sat up and swung her legs to the floor.

Before she could stand, he rejoined her on the couch. “What did you think of the movie?”

“Galaxy Quest isn’t bad,” she said, judiciously. “Good choice.”

He snorted. “Considering you had to have a funny movie with a romance and a happy ending, I’d say I did an excellent job.”

“Hey, I gave you lots of alternatives.”

“Sweetling, I have balls. I’m not allowed to watch movies with names like Runaway Bride or 27 Dresses. At least, not in the first month of screwing around.” His dark green eyes caught hers, held them, as he drew his finger across her lips. “We’re not permitted a ‘cute’ romance at all…unless it’s horror, sci-fi, or has really explicit sex.”

“You don’t get much X-rated sex in comedies.”

“Now that’s just sad.” Still holding her gaze, he turned his hand over, trailing the backs of his fingers down her neck. When his hand closed, he had her hair in an unbreakable grip. He tugged, forcing her head to tilt back.

She couldn’t move away as he took her mouth, penetrating with his tongue, exploring… Her mind spun under the onslaught as he moved closer.

She stiffened as he started to push her back—and he paused. Letting her decide. She shivered as she remembered sex at her apartment and how he’d made her verbalize her desire for him to stay. And how, after that point, she wasn’t allowed to decide anything.

She wanted him tonight. So, so much.

No. She should leave.

“Jake, I didn’t come here to mess around.” Yet, what would it hurt? He was so sad; he needed her. And she wanted him. She’d lusted after him from the first moment, and the more she got to know him, the more she wanted him.

Tonight, she’d been afraid to find his home decorated in a snobbish-sophisticated style. Instead the landscaping was sweetly rural, the house older and decorated for comfort in creams and browns, with tall windows and ceiling fans in every room.

In the living room, a geometric design rug, thick enough to screw around on, covered the lime-washed oak flooring. A leather-topped coffee table practically begged for bare feet. The long sectional faced the usual hi-tech guy electronics, like the television that took up most of the wall. Another wall was all windows, framed by fan palms, and overlooking the rolling fields. The low bookcase against the third wall held military history and thrillers. She felt at home in his house.

And she could stay tonight. She could. She’d be leaving Florida soon. Having sex with the boss wouldn’t affect her job; she’d be gone within a month.

As her resistance eroded, he knew; he pushed her back and followed her down.
