Gillian was no fool. She didn’t expect whatever was going to happen next to alter anything between them permanently. She wasn’t out to steal her man back from Vi, nor did she intend to demand any more from Bryce than he could offer. She just desperately needed him for the night.

One harmless body-and-soul-melting night.

Filling her lungs with his all too-familiar masculine scent, she felt a slow, steady tug in her belly. It reminded her how much she missed the feel of a man’s skin hot against hers. Being with Bryce resurrected in Gillian the sensual being she’d thought long dead. She wanted to run her hands through the variegated strands of gold that were interspersed in his dark hair and lose herself in a bout of mindless sex.

Slipping trembling fingers beneath the weave of his shirt, she was relieved to find that her touch still could make him shiver. She was thrilled to feel his heart beating out a wild cadence against the palm of her hand.

Gillian doubted that Bryce had remained celibate since their divorce.

As she had. Although she’d dated since their divorce, Gillian hadn’t met anyone for whom she’d been able to feel the same intense emotions Bryce evoked in her. Physically she wanted to be with a man, if anything to help her put Bryce behind her, but she hadn’t been able to get her heart to listen to her head.

Shoving aside that thought, she told herself not to overthink her actions for once in her life. After all, this wasn’t rocket science. She wanted this man. And needed him like never before.

She dismissed that “be careful playing with fire” look glittering in Bryce’s eyes with a “Don’t worry. I’m a big girl” look of her own. Anticipation thrummed through her entire being as she tilted her face toward his and claimed his lips an instant later with a possessiveness that belied her promise to give him up willingly later.

Gillian took her time exploring his sensual mouth, which insisted the present was the only thing worth living for. Giving herself completely over to that belief, she pressed herself against the long, hard length of his body and welcomed the responding pressure of his erection. Her pulse vibrated in her ears. Her head began to swirl. And sparks exploded behind her eyes.

It was impossible to get enough of each other.

They clung to each other beneath the twinkling Christmas lights and the watchful eyes of the angel topping the tree. Dropping her head into the safe hollow of Bryce’s shoulder, Gillian felt truly at home for the first time in years.

Unfortunately that sense of security lasted only a moment before he took her firmly by both shoulders, pushed her away and put an end to any fleeting fantasy about picking up where they left off.

“I didn’t cheat on you when we were married, and I’m not going to cheat on Vi when we’re about to become husband and wife,” he said, wiping the kiss from his lips with the back of his hand.
