1 " Sean lay back and listened, watching her with a smile playing over his mouth."it's a really good thing I don't have self-esteem issues," he told her when her spasms of hilarity started to die down. "Also, it's a good thing I hear your sex sound first, You have no grounds to ridicule me, woman. "

2 " I never should have come back to Jupiter Point. I've ruined everything for Evie.""That's not true," Suzanne said impatiently. "My cousin's a lot happier since you got here. Regular sex will do that for you."Josh snorted coffee though his nose, then clapped a hand to his face with a moan of agony. "You should really warn a guy before tossing the word'sex' out there.""Sorry, big guy. I'll be more careful with your delicate sensibilities from now on," Suzanne teased. "
3 " Suddenly energized, she jumped to her feet and bounced up and down on the couch. Clean clothes went flying off the pile. Maybe she should feel bad because she'd just seen what a huge flaw she'd uncovered in herself. But she didn't.She felt free and alive. Up to now, she hadn't really been living. Not fully and completely. That had to change. Immediately."What are you doing? I'm hearing weird sounds.""I'm pulling a Tom Cruise. And I;m also waving a bra around. HUnter, this is amazing? YOu've changed everything. We should have talked like this long ago.""You're freaking me out, sis. Do I need to call someone? "
4 " How long do you have to stay and socialize?""Well, I still have to butter up the president of the Jupiter Point Business Coalition.""I do hope you mean literally."His eyes darkened with desire and he pulled her tighter against him. "As you wish, milady. "

The next thing Evie knew, she was flat on her back on her king-size bed with a fierce-eyed warrior braced over her. "Your're not wearing any underwear, are you?"She giggled. "There's only one way to find out for sure.""Don't have to ask me twice." He pushed the hem of her dress up her thighs. Instant heat rushed to her sex. It was those damn hands of his, their size and power and gentleness. They made her melt just by landing on her body. "
6 " It was practically his duty as a first responder to take her to bed. "
