    Ben took a swig of beer. “Please don’t take my suggestion as an indication that I doubt how satisfied your ladies are.”
    Sam was sure all of this would be recounted to the rest of their buddies for Ben’s amusement.
    Probably more than once. Messing with Sam was one of his friends’ favorite pastimes.
    And vice versa.
    “Why don’t you help her out? You know about women and orgasms. Supposedly. Why don’t you give her some pointers?”
    Ben nodded, unfazed. “Yes, but I happen to be giving out enough orgasms to keep me nice and busy…and tired.”
    “You’re talking about my sister,” Sam pointed out.
    Ben grinned. “Yep.”
    “That should probably bug me.”
    “Probably.”
    “But she does smile a lot more since you got together.”
    “For good reason.”
    Sam chuckled. “And since you made her an honest woman by marrying her, I guess I can’t get too upset.”
    “Thanks,” Ben said dryly. “I was worried about you defending her honor.” Sam sat back in his chair, crossing an ankle over his opposite knee. The position put him closer to the women’s table. The bar wasn’t too crowded yet. It was early, so it wasn’t hard to hear two of the three. But the one with the orgasm problem was the softer spoken—or the more aware of the strangers surrounding them in this public place.
    Right across the street from the St. Anthony’s Emergency Room entrance, the bar was a popular hangout for the hospital staff and Sam knew that it was not a coincidence that Carmen, second-in-command over the ER nursing staff, had chosen this location to have drinks with her sisters. If she wanted to set her sister up with a fling—which seemed more than obvious—what better place to find young, single, willing men that wouldn’t be complete strangers? Carmen knew everyone who came to this bar, and could get references, bank account info and probably birth certificates if she wanted to.
    Carmen was a beautiful woman. She was also bright, funny and sexy. She was married so he’d—
    obviously—never tried to take her home. But that didn’t stop him from flirting.
    Very little stopped Sam from flirting.
    So he couldn’t help but be interested in meeting her sister. Her apparently single, sexually frustrated sister.
    Sam’s back was to the women’s table and he really wanted to take a look. Then again, there was something very intriguing about just overhearing the conversation. He wasn’t particular. Breast size, hair

    color and shape were all secondary concerns. But she did need to be three things—confident, into him, at least for the time-being, and comfortable with her sexuality.
    This woman didn’t sound like she was, or would be, any of those things.
    Still, he couldn’t help thinking Give me an hour, honey, and I’ll take care of your problem .
    He was certainly willing to take his time and vary his techniques to give a woman full pleasure, but he wasn’t into virgins or prudes.
    This one was obviously not the first, but he had suspicions about the second. Her own sisters said she dressed like a kindergarten teacher.
    His kindergarten teacher had been older than dirt, and hadn’t liked him.
    Of course, it had taken him years to know what recalcitrant meant, but even as a five-year-old he’d known she hadn’t meant it as a compliment.
    But his competitive streak had him thinking that it would be pretty sweet to succeed where others had been failing with this woman. The women he usually spent time with were very sexual, uninhibited and, if he was honest, not much of a challenge when it came to talking them into bed. Yeah, he was good, but it wasn’t like he made a habit of picking women he wasn’t sure of.
    “So you’re not going to do it,” Sam said to Ben.
    “I love your sister.”
