He had nothing to be sorry for. Since the moment they’d met, Courtney had known he was one of the biggest male actors around. She’d seen fans approach him countless times while in Hawaii and ask for a few pictures and often an autograph. People wouldn’t suddenly lose interest in him because they were no longer in paradise.

Some conversations you needed to have face-to-face. Courtney skated in front of him and stopped. “Sorry? Why, because those fans came over to you? I knew it would happen eventually.” Moving closer, she placed her palms on his shoulders. “You don’t need to apologize.”

She intended to kiss him on the cheek. Give him a friendly, sisterly kiss to let him know she wasn’t upset. Somehow the message got changed before it reached its final destination, and her lips brushed against his instead.

Considering the outside temperature, his lips should be cold. Instead, they were warm and, in a single word, perfect.

The gag slipped off the bad girl in her, and she spoke up. No point in stopping now.

As if they had a mind of their own, her arms slipped over his shoulders as she moved her mouth against his. With each pass, the rest of the world slipped away a little more. Soon the only things registering were Josh’s lips and his body against hers.

A loud wolf whistle brought reality crashing back down around her. She was holding onto Josh as if her life depended on it while having her way with his mouth in a public place filled with people. Clearly, the left side of her brain had turned off for the day. Her sister did things like this. She didn’t. Courtney forced her gaze up past his nose. Considering the heat in his eyes, she wondered how her clothing wasn’t on fire.

The arms around her kept her from moving away. Exactly when he’d put them around her, she didn’t know, but she wasn’t in any rush for him to move them either. Unfortunately, they were getting in the way of other skaters. Already a small group forced to go around had thrown dirty looks in their direction.

“I’m ready for a break.” She unclasped her hands from behind his neck and settled her palms back on his shoulders. “Why don’t we go to Ambrosia for some hot chocolate? After, we can stop in Benoit Jewelers and look at wedding rings.” Benoit wasn’t the only jewelry store in the city, but in her opinion, its selection far surpassed any other in Providence.

He loosened his embrace, but his arms remained where they were. “Whatever you want.”

Talk about a loaded response. Part of her wanted to say “let’s go home and spend the rest of the afternoon getting reacquainted with each other’s bodies.” Her more logical side reminded her why it was a good idea to keep their relationship as platonic as possible and urged her to remain in public places.

The left side of her brain switched back on. “We still need wedding rings. We might as well get them today.
