Logan’s body radiated heat. Daniela inched closer, the animal part of her brain reacting to the scent of virile male. She wanted to climb inside him and pull him over her like a blanket.

Kissing him was sure to be a mistake, but her good sense was overwhelmed by his hot, lean strength. Consequences and regrets teased the edge of rational thought. She slowly brought her mouth to his. The time for timid tastes was past. She wanted a real kiss.

He tasted of coffee and expectation. Nerves fluttered in her belly, and moisture pooled between her thighs although they touched nowhere but their lips.

“Don’t go,” he murmured as she lifted her head.

Her heart was pounding and prickles of nerves danced across Daniela’s skin at the heat in his eyes. The breeze chilled the moisture on her lips. “This is—” Dangerous.

“Elemental,” he finished, voice husky, gaze steady as he met hers. His knuckles shone white as he gripped the railing, but he didn’t reach for her. “We’re in public. I’m not going to ravish you beneath the sky, surrounded by sparkling water,” he said softly. “Just a kiss, Dani, it’s just a kiss. Come back.”

It wasn’t just a kiss, that was the problem. Her mind stalled for a nanosecond. Had he called her Dani? She blinked back reason. Of course not. The man was addling her brain. He’d said “ravish” and she wanted to be ravished. She wanted to be naked with Logan Cutter on that big bed upstairs, wanted to feel his rough skin against her smooth skin.

She wanted … she squeezed the thoughts away, eyes closed, because he saw too much. Wanted too much.

And in doing so, made her want too much, too. Damn him.

Helpless to resist, she rested her palms on his chest. He went still at her touch, but his heart beat a rapid tattoo beneath her fingers. The hair on his chest tickled her palms. She went hot and then cold and then hot again as she brushed his lips with hers again. Once. Twice.

She’d already proven her judgment in men was flawed. But at least with Logan she was already aware of the danger. She’d be gone soon. She’d take this memory with her.

His pectoral muscles went hard as his entire body tensed. Daniela realized she was flexing her short nails against his skin like a cat. He growled low in his throat, and changed the angle of his mouth, taking control.

Everything around her faded. The sun. The shining water. The sounds and smells of the ship filled with people. It all went mute. All she heard was their syncopated heartbeats. All her senses were focused on this man. Here. Now.

Logan slid his hand around the back of her neck, then cupped the back of her head, his fingers tangling urgently in her hair as he kissed her with heat and passion, using his tongue and teeth to drive her crazy. His other hand, sure and insistent, skimmed over her hip to rest firmly at the base of her spine.
