She almost shivered as he skimmed his hands back down to her hips. “Guess so. I don’t want to waste any more time, doyou?”
The low, husky timber of his voice and the way his fingers tightened a little on her flesh wove a sensual spell around her. Their mouths were only a couple inches apart and she wanted to feel his lips on hers. Wanted him to kiss her until her heartpounded.
“No, Idon’t.”
“Good.” He slipped his hands into the back pockets of her jean capris and squeezed her rear end. “I have wanted to do that for so long. You have such a prettyass.”
Brooke giggled, but his kneading turned her on. “Thank you. Do I get to do that toyou?”
“Honey, you can do anything to me you want,” Robertsaid.
“Let’s start withthis.”
She wrapped her arms around his neck and brought their mouths into firm contact. Opening her mouth, she teased his lips with her tongue. With a growl, he parted them and touched the tip of his tongue to hers before deepening thekiss.
Brooke had kissed a lot of men, but Robert’s kisses were so different. He slid his tongue into her mouth with a slow urgency, exploring her tongue and teeth, as though trying to memorize just that one part of her. Desire wound its way through her as he continued the leisurely assault on hersenses.
He took his hands out of her pockets and ran his hands over her buttocks, grasping her cheeks and holding her against his lower body. The bulge she felt nudging her lower stomach told her that he was also getting excited. He wasn’t there quite yet, but he was on the way to a full hard-on.
She only wore flip-flops and something cold and wet touched the toes on her right foot. Brooke squealed and jumped in surprise, banging her forehead hard against Robert’snose.
“Ow! Shit!” He grabbed his nose and backedup.
Looking down, Brooke saw Sketch inspecting her toes. “Oh, my God. Robert! Are youokay?”
He took his hand away from his nose and she was relieved to see that it wasn’tbleeding.
“Yeah, I’m all right. Nonosebleed.”
“I’m so sorry.” Brooke lightly touched his nose. “I didn’t know Sketch was there, so when he started licking my toes, it scaredme.”
He adjusted his glasses and smiled. “I understand. It’sokay.”
Brooke cupped his cheek. “It’s just as well, I guess. You really shouldn’t have sex tonight. A condom could irritate your skinagain.”
A frown marred his handsome features. “Damn.”
Taking his face in her hands, Brooke pressed a kiss to his lips. “You have to becareful.”
His smile filled her with happiness. “Okay, but I get one more kiss before youleave.”
With great reluctance, Brooke stepped out of his embrace. “No, no. That’ll only make it harder toleave.”
He heaved a sigh. “Okay. Be careful going home. Text me when you getthere.”
Brooke agreed, pressed a brief kiss to his lips, and left before she changed hermind.

Robert and Brookedidn’t get to see each other again until Friday night. He’d asked her to go back to the restaurant they’d gone to on their first date so they could have a nice dinner and do some dancing. Brook had agreed and informed work that she’d be unavailable that night. She was determined that nothing would interrupt theirevening.
Just as he had on their first date, Robert treated her like a queen. He showed up at her house dressed in a camel brown suit jacket worn over a black dress shirt and matching camel dress pants. It fit to perfection and Brooke wanted to drag him in her house and rip it off him. Seeing him shirtless on Sunday night had filled her with hunger and erotic dreams about him had kept her awake thatnight.
This time when he buckled her seatbelt, he leaned in for a light kiss that made her yearn formore.
“Did I tell you how incredible you look?” he asked, still so close toher.
She tried to control her pulse as she smiled. “Youdid.”
