The following morning Sophia stared out of the passenger seat window of Everett's truck, biting back a grin. There wasn’t much to see outside. It was gloomy as always, raining and overcast. But the second he'd driven away from her house, he flashed his devastating smile and a fresh wave of desire slammed into her. Immediately, her mind flooded with images of the night before on the bridge.

They kissed.

And not just any kind of kiss, it was the panty-dropping, tonsil-hockey kind of kiss. It left her overheated and hormonal.

"So how many places are we going to see?" she asked. As previously promised, Everett was taking her to see a few retail pads for her restaurant, followed by lunch at some place he swore would take Sophia's love of food to a level of obsession.

Here she was, trying to make idle conversation, but her mind was still reeling with all her fantasies about last night. And Everett? She watched his reflection in the window glare. They’d been in his truck for about fifteen minutes and he’d barely looked at her. He was calm as ever, as if nothing had happened. Meanwhile she was on the verge of spontaneous combustion just sitting next to him.

They weren't even touching, but heat built between them like a stoked fire. She squeezed her thighs tight and bobbed her feet, which were crossed at the ankles.

"Three today," he said as he hooked a left turn. "Maybe two more. I'm having my guy run the numbers now. They've all been on the market for a few months with no bites, which might work in your favor."

To avoid being rude and avoid eye contact while he was talking to her, Sophia stupidly veered in his direction. Of course, for the first thing she saw was his full lips. She could still feel how they blazed over her skin under the cold of the waterfront. The light stubble of his beard rubbed rough against her cheeks and her neck, driving her hormones wild.

"Uh...okay. Are they all downtown?" Her attention still glued to his lips, she bit down hard on her bottom lip.

God, there must be somewhere else to look.

To avoid his disarming smile and those luscious lips, she looked down...and unfortunately found something else to hold her attention—something thick and hard. Her breathing shallowed and her heartbeat stuttered to a frenzied rhythm, sounding in her ears like the ebb and flow of the ocean. Quickly, she jerked her eyes away from his lap and stared straight ahead for fear of what other trouble she could get into just looking at him.

As the green light turned yellow, Everett slowed beside a street trolley to allow a group of pedestrians to cross.

"Yeah. Two of them are just off Tenth and Eleventh, although they're kind of pricey because of the prime locations. The other one is not too far. It's on the southwest end of Broadway. But it's pretty reasonable and close enough to grab some foot traffic."

He was still staring ahead as his thumbs tapped the steering wheel to the beat of some classic eighties song on the radio.
