do you see?”
    He was already reaching back for the Beretta he kept holstered at the base of his spine and turning to look when her hand landed against his jaw, stopping his movement.
    She jumped off her stool, moved between his legs, and leaned in close. So close he felt her everywhere. “Nothing. Just my ex.” Her scent—her sexy, fresh, alluring scent—mixed with her heat to float all around him and make him lightheaded. “Quick. Kiss me before he sees me. He’s heading right for us.”

 
     
     
CHAPTER TWO
     
     
    Grace pressed her lips against Brian’s before she thought better of it. All she’d wanted to do was hide from the man heading her way, and kissing Mr. Hottie had seemed like a logical way to do that, especially since no one interrupted a kissing couple. But the second her mouth met Brian’s, tiny sparks of electricity zinged all through her body, short-circuiting her brain.
    Oh… His lips were soft and full and masculine. And his scent this close—sandalwood and something spicy—sent a flutter straight to her belly. He was hard and muscular—everywhere—liked she’d expected, but this close, he was also warm and so damn arousing, the blood in her veins felt like it was close to boiling.
    His hand landed on her hip, and he froze against her. Common sense told her she’d surprised him and that she needed to pull back, but she didn’t want to because… Oh man, he smelled too divine, he felt too right, and now that her lips were against his, she really wanted to taste him, especially if this was the only time she was going to get the chance.
    Her fingers threaded into his hair—she just couldn’t help herself—and, wow, she’d been right. Soft, silky, sensuous strands that slid along her skin. She brushed her mouth over his, skimmed her thumb against his cheek, leaned even closer so her breasts just barely grazed that hard, muscular chest of his.
    Kiss me back. She repeated the words in her head while she moved her mouth over his again, wanting— needing —that more than she’d expected. And just when she was sure he wasn’t going to and that it was time to let go, his fingers tightened against her hip.
    She stilled. Tingles ignited in her fingers, in her belly, in every inch of her skin. And then his mouth opened, drawing her in, his tongue gliding along hers with a slow and sensuous stroke, and every muscle in Grace’s body turned liquid.
    She sank into the kiss, leaning into him, tasting him the way he was tasting her. His hands relaxed, his fingers spread, and then they were sliding along her back, his arms wrapping around her to pull her in tight.
    Reality flashed. He was a stranger. Some guy she’d just barely met. And there was something about him that screamed dark and dangerous, but that was part of what attracted her. Though his hands were huge, those thighs of his thick and muscled, grazing the outside of her legs, she wasn’t scared. Some sixth sense told her he wasn’t the kind of guy who would intimidate or try to scare a woman like that idiot back home.
    She was completely light-headed by the time he eased back, just a touch, just enough so she could gulp in air. Her heart beat hard. Especially when she realized his eyes—those gorgeous sapphire gems—were locked solidly on hers. All those tingles reignited through Grace’s skin, and she held her breath, waiting for him to say something…anything.
    “Hey,” a woman exclaimed somewhere to Grace’s left. “I thought you said you were gay.”
    Grace couldn’t seem to tear her gaze away to look, and neither did Brian. Those pretty blue eyes of his held hers with a heat and need that made her tremble. “I think she just turned me.”
    Everything inside Grace went warm and soft. The woman scoffed and stomped away. Footsteps sounded behind Brian, and the music continued to pump out of the speakers above, but Grace was too lost in the moment to care about anyone else. She leaned in to kiss him again when a voice
