He came to stand before her. “I hope you don’t mind, but I had Kate ask Emily to pack a bag for you so you had the right kind of clothing for outhere.”
“You really have thought of everything,” she said. “I can’t believe you didthis.”
He put an arm around her waist. “I wanted to do something special foryou.”
Resting her hands on his chest, she angled a coy look at him. “And share something else newtogether?”
His slow smile created a glow inside. “Yeah. You’re an incredible woman, and I want you to know that I appreciateyou.”
Blushing, Brooke toyed with the button at his throat. “Well, I think you’re an amazing man,Robert.”
His other arm came around her and he tipped her chin up. Their gazes clashed and held. Brooke felt the world tilt a little as she read the passion in Robert’s expression. Her lips parted as he lowered his head and took her mouth in a stormy kiss that sent her sensesreeling.
Leaning into him, Brooke reveled in the feel of his hard body against hers. He tasted of wine and their dessert, and she couldn’t get enough of him. She threaded her fingers through his hair and moaned when his hands squeezed herass.
The way he thrust his tongue against hers created a powerful yearning inside. An ache began low in her stomach and her breasts feltheavy.
Brooke was a little disoriented when Robert broke the kiss. He took her hand and led her to the tent. She liked his take-charge attitude. He unzipped the door and held it back for her. She stepped through the doorway and was surprised by how spacious it was inside. A couple more chairs were set up with a small, portable stand between them. A cooler sat in one corner and another stand with a small lamp on it occupied theother.
Robert turned the lamp on and soft light filled the space. He went into what she assumed was the sleeping area and soon it was also illuminated. Walking into the bedroom area, she smiled when she saw the electric lamps hanging in the four corners of the room. It was whimsical andintimate.
“This is very nice. Do you put all this up and take it down every weekend?” sheasked.
Robert said, “No. My friend Kenny from the Rescue owns this land and he told me that I could make a campsite wherever I wanted and keep it up all summer. This was the spot I picked three yearsago.”
“Oh, that makessense.”
Robert cupped her face and kissed her, nibbling on her bottom lip and delving his tongue deep into her mouth. Brooke melted into him as he plundered and teased. He slid his hands over her shoulders and found the top of her dress zipper. Slowly, she felt the material part as he pulled the zipperdown.
Anticipation built inside as he lifted the spaghetti straps of the gold garment and drew them down her arms. His lips left hers, brushing over her jawline until he reached her ear. The dress slid down her body as he traced the shell of her ear with the tip of his tongue and sucked on herearlobe.
Robert’s hand settled over her breast and she moaned. He reached around her and undid the clasp of her strapless bra. It joined her dress on the tent floor. Opening her heavy-lidded eyes, she felt a thrill run through her at his hungryexpression.
“God, I want you, Brooke. You’re so gorgeous.” He skimmed the back of his knuckles over one of her dark nipples, making her gasp. “Let me make love toyou.”
She smiled and grabbed the collar of his shirt. “Youbetter.”
Pulling his head down, she kissed him hard, twining her tongue with his as she worked on his shirt buttons. He seemed to catch her urgency because he started unbuckling his belt with hurried movements. Brooke finished with the buttons and spread his shirt wide, pushing it over hisshoulders.
He yanked his arms out of the sleeves and tossed the shirt to the floor. Looking down, Brooke smiled at the way his pants jutted out from his body. Stepping closer, she ran her hand over the large bulge. “My, my. What do we havehere?”

Her roaming handmade Robert’s groin tighten and his erection strained against his fly. Once Robert got a woman into bed, he knew precisely what to do with her. It was always getting her there that seemed to stymyhim.
However, the fact that Brooke had made no bones about wanting Robert bolstered his ego and his shyness evaporated. “Why don’t you findout?”
“I think I might just dothat.”
Her pretty teeth biting her bottom lip as she unzipped his fly almost made Robert break out into a sweat, but he employed the same tactics he did in climbing to keep calm. He wanted to wear her out in the most delicious ways possible, but he couldn’t do that if he got carried away toosoon.
Focusing on his slowing his heart rate, Robert enjoyed watching her take down his pants. They fell to the floor and his cock hardened even more when she caressed him through his white boxer briefs. The next thing he knew, she pushed him and he fell backward onto the airmattress.
He laughed as she giggled and crawled in after him. “Sneak attack,huh?”
“Yeah.” She straddled him and kissed his chest. “Confession time. I’ve wanted to climb all over you like this for a longtime.”
“Really? Feel free to climb meanytime.”
