TITUS LOOKED RIDICULOUSLY sexy and totally hot in faded jeans and a distressed black leather jacket. At some point the jacket had been slung over the back of his chair, and his tight white T-shirt showed off the kind of muscles that fuel fantasies way beyond anything Jane Austen ever imagined. I was getting more than a little flustered and seriously couldn’t remember any of our conversation. I seemed to be holding up my end, though, since he wasn’t giving me funny looks.

I tried to resist glancing at the time. Kev had promised he would be my wingman, and I had to trust him.

“You all right?” Titus asked, giving me a funny look.

“Huh?” I blinked. “I mean, yes, of course.”

“You seem distracted.”

Doggonit! He’d noticed. Of course he had. He’d have to be blind and stupid not to. I scrambled for a believable lie. .“I was thinking about our test Monday. I’m a little worried about it.” Well, that was certainly true.

He shrugged. “It’ll be fine. You’ve studied, right? You’re smart. You’ll nail this.”

I preened a little under his attention, pleased by his compliments. Silly, perhaps, but there’s something about a man noticing you’re not just pretty but also smart that really gets a girl’s juices going. Or maybe that’s just me.

“Emma!” A squeal from halfway across the pub startled me. “Fancy meeting you here.” Kev embraced me in a flurry of pink cotton and expensive cologne. He was pushing the whole flamboyant thing to the nth degree, which cracked me up. I tried hard not to giggle.

“Hi, Kev. This is my, ah, friend, Titus. Titus, my roommate, Kev.”

Kev plopped into a seat at the table without asking. He waggled his ginger brows at Titus and gave a little finger wave. “So, where’s little Emma been keeping a big, sexy drink of water like you?”

I almost spewed my drink across the table. Titus looked nonplussed. My instinct was to defend poor Titus, but I didn’t dare interfere with Kev’s plan or he’d have my head. Murmuring something about powdering my nose, I took off for the ladies room.

Fortunately the pub was crowded, so instead of taking the dim hall to the bathrooms, I veered off toward the front door without Titus noticing. I was steps away when it opened and in walked Kyle. My heart thudded to a stop before picking up the pace, hammering against my breastbone like a wild thing. I wasn’t sure if it was because Kyle was looking especially delicious in black slacks and a blue button-down shirt that brought out the color of his eyes, or if it was because I was worried Titus would see me talking to another guy and figure something was up.

“Emma.” Kyle greeted me with a warm smile. He leaned down and gave me the cheek kissy thing British people do, his lips lightly brushing my skin. I was in too much of a panic to notice.

“Hey,” I said, grabbing his arm and steering him to the door. “It’s kind of crowded in here.
