hadn't believed him before...she could feel it in his kiss.
His groan vibrated against her mouth as his tongue sought entrance. Maggie wrapped her arms around his neck and let herself drown in the taste and scent of Jake. His mouth was demanding and hot and his hands roamed her body possessively before gripping her hips and pulling her hard against his groin.
Her body became liquid as their groins met and she felt his hard erection. She pressed herself closer to him, rubbing against him like a cat in heat.
He pulled his mouth from hers reluctantly, holding her close as his breath hit her ear in hot streams of air.
"I'm sorry, Maggie. I almost forgot where we were," his voice was low and aroused. "I'd take you right now if I could."
She would have probably let him. Maggie was slightly dazed from the force of his passion. She was still shaking from the realization that Jake really wanted her.
He kissed her temple lightly as he whispered, "Do you believe me now?"
She nodded, unable to speak.
"Will you do me the honor of being my date tonight?"
"Yes, Jake." She felt like Cinderella who had captured the attention of the unattainable prince.
He pulled back and cracked a devilish smile. "Did I tell you how much I love this dress?" His finger trailed along the neckline, brushing the tops of her breasts.
"It's...revealing," she uttered, her cheeks rosy.
"That's why I like it," he replied in a sultry voice that sent a shiver down Maggie's spine.
He picked up her shawl from the ground and draped it over her arm. He held out his arm to her. She took it hesitantly as he led her in to dinner.
It didn't take Maggie long to relax. Jake was a fascinating date and they fell back into their pattern of talking as if they had known each other forever. The only difference was his relentlessly seductive and romantic behavior. By the end of dinner, she flirted back shamelessly, which, to her surprise, seemed to delight Jake.
Maggie couldn't have told anyone what she ate or even if it was good. She was charmed by Jake and totally engrossed in their conversation. He gave her his total and undivided attention as though she were the only woman there. The night was almost magical.
Jake was a fabulous dancer. He held her much too close, but Maggie wasn't about to complain. She let the music and Jake completely seduce her.
"Did you have a good time?," Jake asked her as he led her around the dance floor, his hand firmly caressing her back and his lips close to her ear.
"The best date I ever had." She pulled back and smiled up at him.
"Come home with me, Maggie." His eyes were beseeching.
She gulped, her heart feeling like it was lodged in her throat. "Jake...I -"
"Nothing has to happen unless you want it to, Maggie. I'm not ready for the night to end. Come and see my house." His voice was honest but held a hint of persuasion.
Maggie wanted to see his home. Jake had designed and built it himself. "Okay. I do want to see your home."
He grinned and led her off of the dance floor. He held her hand as they left the hotel and entered into the warm, summer evening. "Ride with me. We can come back for your car later."
The drive to his place didn't take long. He lived right outside of the city limits and traffic was light. The conversation was superficial, but Maggie could feel the tension and excitement coursing through her body.
He pulled into his driveway commenting, "I wish you could see it during the day. If you spend the night you could see it in the daytime." His tone was so hopeful that Maggie burst into laughter.
"Not very subtle, Jake."
"I'm starting to realize that subtle doesn't work well with you." He helped her out of the SUV and led her to the house.
The home was beautiful and Maggie could tell it had been built with care. She loved everything from the patio with an enclosed, sunken jacuzzi to the master bedroom that
