Benton lay in bed naked, covers pulled to his waist, hungry anticipation humming through his veins. When Mandy’s eyes fell on him upon exiting the bathroom in her sparkly dress, she gasped, and like earlier, he enjoyed surprising her, even if in a much different way.

He leaned against the headboard, hands behind his head. “Figured I’d save you the trouble.”

Her face colored slightly. He liked it. “Thanks. All those buttons were pretty pesky last time.”

She started toward the bed—until he said, “Stop.”

She stilled in place. “Why?”

Reaching to his bedside table, he pushed a button and the first funky notes of Hot Chocolate’s “You Sexy Thing” echoed through the air and her eyes went wide.

“You…”

“Bought it after the other night,” he said, still grinning. “Couldn’t get it out of my head, and I can’t get the way you danced to it out of my head, either.”

She looked embarrassed at the memory and, despite himself, he liked that, too. He couldn’t get a firm bead on who exactly she was, the prim woman Mindy had paired him with or the much freer girl he kept catching sizable glimpses of—but the one undeniable thing about Mandy was that she wore her heart on her sleeve. He never found it difficult to discern her emotions, and after years in a stiff business environment where image was everything, it turned him inside out to be with someone so utterly genuine, whichever side of her was currently on display.

“Show me your lace,” he prodded lowly.

A bit of fire filled her eyes at the request, reminding him of her expression that night at the retro club. He let it rush through him and knew she’d understood his request perfectly—that he was asking for more than just the lace.

Even so, she shook her head, her blond locks prettily mussed from their earlier ride. “Sorry. I’m afraid the near-death experience on Columbia Parkway sobered me too much for that.”

Okay, he got the message. She didn’t want to dance for him the way she had at the club—no big deal. It had just been a thought—a very sexy thought—something he’d thought might turn them both on. Not that they needed any help in that department. He was already aroused again just looking at her in that incredible dress. “All right. Then turn down the lights a little,” he said, pointing to the dimmer switch behind her, “and come let me make you feel good.”

The rollicking song played on as Mandy twisted the indicated knob, shrouding the room in shadows.

And then, with her back still to him, her hips began to sway gently to the beat.

He felt a slow smile unfurl across his face.

Spinning suddenly, she looked him straight in the eye and broke into song with wild gusto. She took sexy steps toward him, then backed up, teasing. She fell off her shoes once, interrupting the lyrics with an “Oh!” but got quickly back into her dance. Coming closer, she grabbed onto the bedpost with one hand, arching her back
