Trent glanced around the Wednesday night dog obedience class. Man, these pups had come a long way. Almost all of them were sitting nicely in front of their owners, patiently waiting for the class to begin. Even Delia’s dog, who was one of Brutus’ sisters, was acting like an absolute angel for the older woman and her grandson.

All the dogs were well behaved. Except Brutus. As usual, he was flopped half on one of Trent’s shoes, chomping away at the laces.

Dang furball. For the record, he was not Trent’s best friend.

“Cut it out,” Trent growled at the dog, nudging him with his foot. Brutus wagged his tail and went back to chewing.

“Good behavior is about a lot more than knowing what to do when,” Erin told the class as she walked by each dog and rewarded them with a pat on the head. “Good behavior is also about withstanding temptation.”

She stopped in front of Brutus, and Trent couldn’t help smiling. Yeah, neither he nor his dog seemed any good at withstanding temptation. Brutus couldn’t give up chewing shoelaces, and he couldn’t give up kissing Erin.

“Brutus, no,” Erin said in a firm, no-nonsense voice. “Sit and be still.”

To Trent’s amazement, Brutus did what she asked. He stopped chewing on the shoelace and sat.

“Well, I’ll be,” Trent said, and then without thinking, he let out a whistle.

Pandemonium broke out. All of the dogs responded to the whistle by yapping and yipping and chasing each other. Erin shot him a look of pure frustration before clapping her hands and saying, “Sit.”

All the puppies settled down. Except for Brutus, who once more returned to eating Trent’s shoelaces.

“Guess it was a short-lived victory,” Trent said.

“You shouldn’t whistle when you’re in dog school,” Delia’s nine-year-old grandson, Zach, said in that stern tone kids loved to use when correcting an adult. “Whistling makes the dogs go crazy.”

Trent winked at the kid. “Thanks for the tip.”

After first frowning at Trent, Erin smiled at Zach. “You’re right. Whistling does get the dogs riled up. I’m sure Chief Barrett won’t do it again.”

Zach beamed at her compliment, and Trent bit back a chuckle. Fine, the kid was right, and he was wrong. He was man enough to own up to his mistakes, even if they were dumb ones.

“Yeah, I’ve learned my lesson. No more whistling in class.”

This time, he was the one rewarded with one of Erin’s smiles. Man, it felt like a punch to the solar plexus. As soon as she smiled at him, the air seemed to whoosh from his lungs, and he found himself unable to look away. She must have felt the same wallop of attraction because she simply stood still, looking at him.

The memory of the kisses they’d shared the night before burned between them. Both kisses had been amazing. Trent couldn’t ever remember kissing a woman who got his blood as fired up as Erin did. Moreover, not only did he have the major hots for her, but he liked her. She was a
