Chapter Fifteen

“It is difficult to know at what moment love begins; it is less difficult to know that it has begun.” —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I don’t do things like this, Vanessa thought as she looked over at Troy sleeping facedown on the other side of the bed. But, oh my goodness, I’m so glad I did this.

She wanted to giggle madly at her own thoughts and the complete lack of the usual regrets that followed an impulsive decision like the one she’d made last night when she’d asked Troy to stay. His car was parked outside, announcing to her mother and the rest of the world that he’d spent the night, and Vanessa couldn’t care less.

That, too, was not like her.

After the best sex of her life, she couldn’t spare the brain cells to worry about the implications or work up the usual level of concern about potential family teasing/ridicule over her stepping so wildly out of character.

Maybe it was time for such a thing, since playing it safe hadn’t worked out so well for her. She was still single at thirty-two after expecting to be married with children by now. Her “career,” such as it was, had flamed out, and she had no idea what was next for her. Most interesting of all was that the ever-present anxiety that kept her wired so tightly all the time was nowhere to be found this morning.

She stretched her arms over her head, took a deep breath and released it slowly, jolting when a warm hand landed on her belly.

“Morning,” he muttered.

“Morning.”

“What time is it?”

“Who cares? You’re on vacation, and I’m unemployed.”

He moved closer to her, put his arm around her and rested his head on her chest. “Thank you for the reminder that I have nowhere to be and nothing to do except this.” His tongue found her sore nipple and gently stroked it until it stood up, ready for more of his special brand of magic.

Vanessa gasped as she ran her fingers through his thick dark hair, wanting to hold him in place even as she wondered if she could take any more than she’d already gotten. Never in her life had she been so uninhibited with a man, and as the memories of the night before came flooding back, she still couldn’t find it in her to be embarrassed, shocked or anxious.

Who had time for such concerns when a hot, sexy, sweet, caring man was firing her up for the fourth—or was it fifth—time?

“We’re out of condoms,” she reminded him, and yes, she’d robbed her brother’s stash, which was yet another indication of just how crazy last night had gotten.

“We can be creative,” he said as he kissed a path from her breasts to her belly and below.

“If we’d been any more creative, someone would be dead.”

His low rumble of laughter had goose bumps erupting on the surface of her skin. He looked up at her with brown eyes ablaze with desire. “Best night ever.”

“Really?”

Nodding, he said, “So far in first place as to have no competition whatsoever.
