It was an endless night. The rain continued to pound for the next hour. As Erin slept peacefully, Tara tossed and turned, unable to get Matt out of her head. The way he looked at her, the way he touched her. Staying here, at the house, was going to be trouble.

She climbed out of bed and walked to the kitchen. She found a glass and got some ice and poured water over it, then went into the living room and watched the rain.

“It’s been awhile since we’ve had a storm like this.”

Tara gasped as she swung around to find Matt. “Oh, I didn’t know you were awake.”

He crossed the room. He was wearing a robe over a pair of sweatpants, but even in the dimly lit room she could see his chest was bare.

“I didn’t mean to startle you.” He studied her. “Can’t you sleep?”

She shook her head. “Having a tree crash through my window has a tendency to make me a little restless. But please don’t feel you have to stay up for me.” In fact, she’d rather have him far away.

“I can’t sleep, either. I guess it’s all the excitement.” He stepped closer. “I was on my way out to the cottage to bring you both to the house when I heard the crash. I saw the tree fall. God, I was so afraid something happened….” His gaze met hers. He reached out and touched her cheek.

Tara couldn’t help herself. She leaned into his palm. “I was so scared, too,” she whispered. “Thank you for coming to our rescue.”

Matt told himself the smart thing to do was to turn around and head back to bed. Alone. To stay away from this woman. Instead, he bent his head toward hers. He ached to know what it was like to hold her in his arms, to taste her. One touch of her lips, and he knew the answer. First came the rush of sensation. Even though the kiss was slow and tentative there was a definite fire ignited between them.

She tasted of mint and a sweetness he couldn’t describe. He only knew he wanted more. He had to have more. His hands cupped her face, and he teased her lips with his tongue. When she moaned, he pushed inside. Their passion soared as he plunged deeper, wanting—needing to taste all of her. He drew her against him and heard her soft, whimpering sound.

Her hand went to his chest. He shuddered, relishing her warmth against his skin. At first he thought she was going to push him away, then to his relief, she traced her fingers along his sensitive flesh, sending slivers of heat through him, making him rock hard. When she wrapped her arm around his neck and pressed her body into his, he nearly went crazy. His fingers dug into her hair, holding her captive as his tongue delved deep, relaying his need. His hands skimmed down her silken-covered back, learning her curves, aching to be inside her.

He raised his head and drew a needed breath.
