‘I’m not sure what to make of that comment, Zack.’ Her voice sounded husky. And she wanted to touch him.

‘I’ve dreamed of us living in this house too.’ His voice was raspy with emotion.

She met his gaze and, in a rare moment, saw the strong emotions he held on to so tightly. She nearly went to him.

And then she caught herself.

Tasha was right. This was a mistake. ‘I’d better go.’

Lindsay pushed past Zack and headed toward the front door. She had her hand on the doorknob.

‘Lindsay, don’t go.’

She hesitated, realizing how much she wanted to stay. She turned and took a step toward him.

He moved with purposeful steps down the hallway, closing the distance between them. Their faces were only inches apart.

Her heart pounded hard against her chest, its beat filling her ears. She was certain he could hear it.

As their gazes held, she felt a change in the atmosphere. He wanted to kiss her. And she wanted to kiss him.

This is stupid,she thought, yet she didn’t move away.

Leaning forward, he kissed her. The kiss was soft, gentle, a testing of the waters, but it was enough to set her on fire. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back. Warm lips molded against hers.

Zack pressed her back against the door, deepening the kiss. A calloused hand slid up under her tank top and cupped her breast and teased her nipple into a hard peak. Sexual desire exploded. She moaned her pleasure and pushed her tongue into his mouth.

This doesn’t mean anything. This isn’t reconciliation. This is purely about sexual release.

And the need for sexual fulfillment overrode everything. Lindsay refused to think about tomorrow, this damn house, or her messed-up childhood. She just wanted sex and the temporary ecstasy it promised.

Zack moved his mouth to the base of her neck as he pressed his body against her. His hand slid from her breast down to her flat stomach. His fingers moved under the waistband of her shorts to the nest of hair. He explored her moist, tender flesh and she thought she’d explode.

She cupped his buttocks with her hands and then slid her hands over his hard, flat stomach. It felt so good to touch him, as if she had come home.

She reached for the buckle of his belt and unfastened it, then unhooked the button on his pants. She pushed thefabric away and wrapped her hands around the smooth hardness of his erection.

Zack kissed her harder, driving his tongue deep into her mouth. A deep primal groan rumbled in his throat. ‘I’ve dreamed about this,’ he murmured.

So had she but she couldn’t speak the words out loud. Her hesitation had him pulling back to study her face. Rigid control held his lovemaking at bay. ‘Do you want this, Lindsay?’

She didn’t want to think. She just wanted to feel.

But he seemed to need to hear the words. ‘Do you want this?’

She moistened her lips, which now tasted of him. ‘Yes. I want this.’

Those words were all Zack needed to hear. He yanked her shorts and panties down, exposing her. She was moist, ready. He pressed his erection against her and kissed her on the lips. His kisses trailed down her neck to her cleavage. He licked the top of her breasts. This was strictly about sexual need, she told herself.

‘God, I’ve missed you.’ His warm breath brushed against her cheek as he spoke.

The need in her had built to a fever pitch. The pulse in her loins had robbed her of everything other than the desire for fulfillment. She stepped out of her shorts and panties and pressed her body against his. ‘Don’t make me wait any more.’

His kiss devoured her lips, and then in one swift move he lifted her off the floor as if she weighed nothing. He pressed her back against the door and she wrapped herlegs around his waist and guided his erection to her. He drove into her. For a moment, she was overwhelmed by the sensation of him stretching inside her. Seeming to sense this, he went still and waited for her to become accustomed to him.

She dug her fingers into his back as he started to slowly move inside her.

Desire built and then she dropped her head against the door as the first spasms rolled over her and rocketed through her body. Within seconds a violent orgasm washed over her.
