Sam felt as if a wrecking ball had hit him. Standing in Corrie’s living room, he couldn’t think of one thing to say. Finally, he asked, “Corrie Edwards! Is that you?”

Even Jasper, sitting on the floor staring up at Corrie, knew his mistress looked different. Sam couldn’t quite believe this was his vet assistant, normally seen in smocks and usually with little or no makeup. Corrie’s hair was styled and silky, waving around her face in such a way that it enhanced her facial structure, her high cheekbones, the tilt of her nose, her small chin. Her blue eyes looked absolutely enormous. Her lashes seemed thicker and fuller. He could hardly notice any freckles, but her lips were coated with lipstick that looked wet.

His stomach clenched. His groin tightened. He realized how aroused he was becoming and they hadn’t even gotten to dinner. She was wearing the kind of dress he would never imagine Corrie wearing. It was black velvet and it clung to her. The V-neckline dipped far enough that he could see the swell of her breasts. The long sleeves seemed as though they covered a lot of skin, but the skirt that draped to her calves had a slit up the side. That slit made a man want to see more.

He was so thrown off balance, he asked, “Can you walk in those shoes?” The heels had to be three inches high. The shoes’ straps went from her toes up her ankle. Could a shoe be any more seductive?

“Sure, I can walk in them,” she claimed as she crossed to the chair and picked up her coat.

When Sam saw the hole in the back of her dress, he almost broke out into a sweat. The way her tush moved…He wished he’d left the door open to let the cold air in. He rimmed his finger around the collar of his dress shirt, thinking about unfastening the top button.

“Am I too dressed up?” Corrie glanced at him innocently over her shoulder.

Somehow he found his voice. “No. No, of course not. This is probably one of the few dress-up occasions in Rapid Creek.”

Corrie pointed to Jasper’s bed on the sofa. “Come on. Jump into your bed.”

The dog did, and Corrie hunkered down to pet him. “Stay out of trouble until I get home.”

The dog barked as if in understanding and Corrie laughed.

At that moment, Sam had never seen a more beautiful woman—a woman he’d like to take to bed, a woman who made him feel as if he’d been in cold storage for too long.

“We’d better get going.”

Sam took Corrie’s coat from her arm and held it. It was dark-green wool. He realized he’d never seen Corrie Edwards dressed up like this before. She was a sight.

As she slipped her arm into one sleeve, he caught the scent of perfume, sweet and musky. The dangle of her onyx earrings caught in one of her curls. He slid his thumb under it, releasing it. His face was so close to her there was only a breath between them.
