Damon lay on his back, staring wide-eyed into the semi-darkness. Moonlight softened everything with a bluish sheen. He rolled towards Felicity. Was that the hundredth or two hundredth time tonight?

She’d kicked off the sheet. Her short nightdress stopped mid-thigh. Her long, slender legs were curled up like a small child’s and she clung to the pillow like a buoy on a turbulent sea. Stray hair floated in the breeze across her face. He fought to keep his hands where they lay. It would be too easy to stroke those strands away, stroke his hand down her cheek and stoke the fire building deep, down low.

But that would be a terrible mistake. So he wanted her. So she made his heart race and his groin ache. So she’d been the first woman to do so since his divorce. That didn’t mean he should act on any of his primal urges. Urges could be controlled. Should be controlled. Would be controlled.

Martin’s ugly words filtered through his mind. Pretty women with big problems have always been your weakness. Drink, drugs, deceptive conduct, not to forget a criminal for a father . . . These weren’t small problems. Felicity flew so many red flags she could have been christened with champagne and named the HMAS Perilous.

She shuffled in her sleep. Her nightie pulled tight across the swell of her breasts. His erection strained against the fabric of his boxers. He groaned. Ripping his gaze away, he flipped onto his back. But the beat of the fan overhead suggested another beat. One that involved Felicity under him, naked, legs wrapped around him, panting.

He drenched himself with a mental bucket of icy water.

Stay professionally detached.

But his gaze drifted back to her beautiful face.
