Chapter Four

THE LATE AFTERNOON took a busy turn. Riley and the girls were sidetracked from the cake by hungry children, cranky babies, and men who needed nourishment. It was nearly eight thirty, and Riley and Josh were finishing the dishes while the girls and their husbands put their children to bed. Riley loved that the husbands and wives handled bedtime together. She imagined her and Josh doing the same once their baby was born. Hal was outside with Hope, and Riley’s parents were due to arrive any minute. She was happy to have a moment alone with Josh.

“How did the cake turn out?” Josh asked as he dried a bowl.

She and Jade had wrapped the wedding cake layers and put them out of sight before dinner. They’d finish frosting it after the children were settled and the men had reconvened someplace other than the kitchen.

“We had to make a minor adjustment to the recipe, but it’s going to be delicious.”

Josh set down the towel he was using to dry the dishes and moved behind her. He gathered her hair over one shoulder and brushed his lips over her cheek, wrapping his strong arms around her waist. She closed her eyes, relaxing into his embrace. They’d been moving at breakneck speed since last night, when they’d left the resort, and all she wanted to do was curl up in his arms and be loved by him.

“I’ve missed you,” she whispered as he kissed his way down her neck. With her eyes still closed, she felt for the faucet and turned it off, enjoying every blessed second of the alone time with her soon-to-be husband.

Josh turned her in his arms, and when she reached for the towel to dry her hands, he took her hands in his and guided them around his waist.

She scrunched her nose. “I’m wet.”

“That’s what I like to hear,” he whispered seductively.

She giggled, but he was all hands and lips, groping her ass as he sank his teeth into her neck and sucked so hard heat seared between her legs, turning that short-lived giggle into a needy moan. She craned her neck to the side, giving him better access to continue his tantalizing assault, but he grasped the back of her skull, angling her mouth beneath his, and took her in a kiss so intense she lost all sense of place and time. Reveling in the feel of Josh’s hands holding, caressing, taking, and his eager mouth, she went up on her toes in an effort to get more of him. Then his hands were on her hips, lifting her onto the counter without breaking their connection. Riley had always been amazed at the way he lifted her so easily. She was not a petite girl. She had real womanly curves, which Josh seemed to have an insatiable appetite for. Thank goodness, because she was only going to get curvier with her pregnancy.

“God, I love you,” he said between frantic kisses. He tugged the neckline of her shirt down and kissed the flesh he bared, filling his other hand with her breast.
