everything she demanded.
    Something flashed in the back of his head, something he was supposed to remember, something he was supposed to do, but he couldn't follow it, not when he was utterly, hopelessly lost in Anna.
    Sweet Anna.
    Finally, she pulled away from him, gasping, her tongue coming out to lick at her swollen lips as if she were still trying to taste him.
    "I've never done anything this crazy."
    Her words trembled with confusion--and so much desire--that his mouth found hers again a moment later and she was so sweet he knew it would kill him when he finally had to stop tasting.
    Instinctively, Cole knew it wasn't the champagne that made her taste like sugar. The sweetness was all her.
    Grandma would love her.
    The thought came at him blindside. He'd almost forgotten why he was here in the first place, why he'd picked her out of the crowd.
    He didn't know anything about Anna other than how good her body felt against his, how right her kisses were, how much he liked her scent, how hard she made him--and how perfectly she embodied the "nice girl" he was sure his grandmother wanted to see with him.
    He hadn't thought beyond finding someone to play the role he needed her to play, but now that he had, he was surprised to find guilt dogging his heels. He didn't know Anna well enough to not want to hurt her.
    And yet...his gut twisted at the thought of what he needed to do.
    And he did need to do it.
    Because he owed his grandmother everything.
    It was that vision--of his grandmother, pale and frail in her hospital bed--that had him leaning into Anna, brushing her earlobe with his lips.
    "Let's do something really crazy, Anna."

    She shivered as his lips made contact with her lobe. Even though he knew he needed to be holding focus, that his goal was the most important thing here, not how much he wanted pretty Anna, he had to pull her earlobe between his teeth and nip at it.
    So perfectly, incredibly responsive to his every touch, Anna arched into him, her full, hard-tipped breasts practically searing him through her dress and his shirt, another whimper of need, of desire sounding from her lips.
    "So sweet," Cole murmured against her soft skin as he ran his mouth down her neck, his tongue dipping into the hollow of her shoulder bone. Her breasts, full with arousal, pressed up and out toward his mouth from the neckline of her pink dress. He was half a breath away from unzipping her dress right then and there so that he could swirl her nipples against his tongue, when the crash of a glass at the bar pulled him back into the here and now.
    Her eyes were cloudy with desire, only partially focusing as she said, "What could be crazier than this?"
    Jesus, he'd completely forgotten about his question, about where he was going with it.
    Again.
    How was one tiny woman--a woman who wasn't even his type, for fuck's sake--turning his brain, and body, completely inside out?
    Needing space, needing air to get his brain to function again, he made himself move back an inch from her curves, from her warmth. But all that did was make it easier for him to look at her. She was so pretty--and so damn pure despite the way she'd been kissing him like a wildcat in heat--that his stomach twisted even as he said, "What's the craziest thing you can think of doing with me tonight?"
    The club was dark, but not dark enough that he could miss the flush across her cheeks, or the way the heated vee between her thighs shifted closer to his rock-hard erection in an dance as old as time.
    The smile curved his lips before he realized it. "Don't worry, baby, we're definitely going to be doing that, regardless of your answer."
    She licked her lips. Her sweet, plump, cherry-red lips. "I don't--" She shook her head, her shoulder-length brown hair moving across her shoulders. "I wasn't going to say--"
    "You do," he countered, "and you were." Dropping his lips back down over hers, he said,
    "But since that's a given, what other kind of crazy have you got for me?"
    Her
