She laughed, her eyes bright. “I’d still want to let you.”
He picked up his camera from where he’d left it on the counter. “Can I?”
Somewhat to his surprise, she nodded. He snapped several photos of her, his entire heart warming at the natural brilliance of her smile. After lowering the camera, he leaned in to plant one on her.
She tweaked his nose and turned away. “Better get a move on, or the parking will be a nightmare.”
“I’m not done with you yet, Professor.”
“I hope not, Heartthrob.” She tossed him a grin and walked out the front door.
Jake followed, torn between intense pleasure and the knowledge that the danger zone was looming closer every minute he spent with this woman. If he wasn’t careful, he’d get stuck there with no way out.
Then again, maybe he wasn’t even interested in finding a way out.
