1 " She meant to embarrass you. I don’t want to be her friend.”He took a slow breath. She was an F-5 tornado, and for some reason she’d chosen to stop spinning long enough for him to catch her. “I thought you and I were still at odds.”“We’re at odds because you’re a jackass. That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t fight a dragon for you.”“Is she a dragon, then?”“Nope. A snake, maybe. I’ll figure it out.”............Perhaps she did need some figuring out. Not because she might be digging after Reg’s money, however. Because of the look she sent at Samantha when no one else was looking. Sam might be willing to slay a dragon on his behalf, but that was nothing compared to what he was prepared to do for her. "

2 " Samantha,” he murmured, reaching out to tilt up her chin, to gaze into her bottomless green eyes, “I love you more than you love Godzilla.”Her burst of laughter sounded surprised and delighted – two things he most prized being able to give her. “Even the new Godzilla?” she asked him, leaning in to give him a kiss that ended with her nibbling on his bottom lip.“I love you quadruple the amount you love the new Godzilla.”“Wow. That’s a lot.”“Shut up and kiss me again, Yank. "
3 " She’s like no one you’ve ever met, Reg. And when you fall in love with her – which you will, despite Eerika – just keep in mind that she’s mine. She’s more than you could handle, anyway.”Reg lifted both eyebrows. “That almost sounds like a challenge.” He finished off the Scotch and stood. “But considering that I know what you did to Patricia and Peter when you caught them shagging, I’ll decline. Now if you don’t mind, I’m going to go find my girlfriend and occupy myself until dinner.”“Mi casa, su casa, as they say in Florida.”“God, you’ve been away for too damned long, Ricky. "
4 " What would Entertainment Tonight say if they knew you were doing it on your office floor when you have twenty bedrooms?"Slowly he pushed forward, entering her. "They would say, 'That lucky Addison bloke,'" he breathed, '"having sex with the beautiful, gorgeous, funny, brilliant, multi-talented Samantha Jellicoe. "
