“Toni,” a male voice whispered in her ear, but she frowned at the absurd notion of it and snuggled back to sleep.

A masculine chuckle followed. Hands soothed her back, stopping to rub her buttocks. “I promised I’d wake you up before Twyla did.”

At the sound of her daughter’s name, Toni’s head popped up and she almost clipped her forehead against Nick’s chin. She squinted, searching for an alarm clock that wasn’t there. Nick was grinning at her, looking sexier than he had a right to, and, Christ, deliciously naked. Naked!

“Shit. What time is it?”

“Four-thirty.”

“In the morning?”

“Mmm-hmm.” There was a lot of amusement behind that sound.

She couldn’t deal with amusement right now. Hell, she didn’t want to deal with the sins she’d willingly committed just last night. She lowered her head back to where she’d been snuggling in his chest, hoping he’d get the hint.

“I’ll bet a shower would wake us both right up.”

She rubbed her forehead against him, wishing he’d just shut up long enough for sleep to claim her again. He placed a kiss on her cheek and untangled himself from her. The next thing she heard was the shower. Maybe he’d go alone and grant her ten more minutes of peace.

Toni had begun to sleep when she was suddenly lifted from the bed.

“What the—?”

“Cold shower or hot shower?”

“Nick! Goddamnit!”

“I’m figuring you like hot.”

“Have you lost your mind?”

“Shh, you’ll wake up the neighborhood.”

“I don’t give a—”

“You’ll wake your daughter.”

“Argh!” She bit her lip to keep from screeching at him.

There was no time to fight him before he shoved her into the shower, followed her in and closed the glass door behind him. His full erection stuck out, brushing her upper thigh and startling her enough to almost make her jump.

“Sorry, can’t help it,” he explained. “Morning wood.”

“I, ah . . .”

“Say no more. I understand. Just ignore it.”

Right. Well, at least she wasn’t the only one whose sex was extra sensitive after all the romping last night.

Standing under the shower of hot water, she sighed, wondering how she could’ve possibly been sleeping so peacefully just seconds before, and now here she was. Last night had been a similar roller-coaster ride. One minute she was responding to what sounded like a man in pain, and the next she was forgetting all her inhibitions and succumbing to sex. All it had taken was less than ten hours to become a different person. Damn.

On the ledge next to the shampoo bottle, Nick picked up a travel mug she hadn’t noticed before and handed it to her. The unmistakable scent of fresh coffee wafted up to her nose.

When she hesitated to take it, he shrugged and drank some of it. When he sipped it the second time, she gave up the fight and stole it from his willing fingers. The first gulp warmed her, trailing all the way to her gut.

“You like?” he asked.

“Mmm. Hot coffee is good. Thanks.”

“Cold showers not so much?”

“Never cold showers.”

“But the two together are like peanut butter and jelly.
