for her. What’d he done to deserve such a reward?
    Fire ! They played with fire, and he should back away now before things got out of control. He didn’t even make a half-ass stab at retreating.
    “ But I gotta ask….” He leaned forward, buried his face in her hair. She always smelled so good, and not for the first time he was curious how she’d smell and taste in other more intimate areas. Lips against her ear, he nipped her lobe before asking, “Do I get an invite to play with the toy I buy you?”
    “ Heath.” So definitely not the response he was looking for, but he recognized the sound of arousal when he heard it.
    He met her eyes and ran his lips along her jaw. As he neared her mouth, her breathing stuttered… in anticipation, he was sure of it. A soft brush against her bottom lip with his, and her pulse vibrated like electricity beneath his fingertips. Using his thumb beneath her chin, he notched her head back and moved in to kiss her.
    The click of photographs went off just as he would ’ve connected with her.

    Sam wrenched her head around and held up her arm to ward off the flashing bulbs. Heath cursed and thrust her behind him.
    “ That’s Samantha Collins!” Someone said, inciting a buzzing from the reporters.
    “ How long have you been banging Jase’s sister?” A journalist with slicked-back, dark hair asked.
    “ Watch how you talk about her!” Heath took a step forward. After tonight’s demonstration of violence, she feared things would go south, fast.
    Sam caught his arm. “Ignore them, and let’s get out of here.”
    Heath led her through half a dozen photographers that kept snapping photos. Her stomach churned at the idea of how they’d paint their truncated, but very public liaison in the tabloids. What would Jase and the other band mates think?
    “ Sorry for your trouble,” he tossed a wad of cash at the clerk, and they busted through the door.
    Keeping her head down, she ran for the passenger door as fast she could in the stilettos. Before she could touch the handle, Heath pushed it open from the driver side.
    Sam hopped in, and he backed out before she secured her seatbelt in place. Awkward silence descended in the vehicle.
    That just happened .
    Heath had almost kissed her. On the backside of what she ’d romanticized, worry for the fallout slammed her. Their public display would be hot news tomorrow. If it wasn’t all over the Internet in the next hour, which was a more likely scenario, since she was pretty sure one of them had been videoing their escapades.
    She glanced at his hands as he turned the steering wheel. He hadn ’t touched her near enough to please her, but what little he had had stimulated her beyond anything she’d ever experienced. Another glide of his leg against her core and she’d have gone off like a firework during a holiday celebration.
    He smacked the wheel with his palm. “I acted stupid. What a mistake.” Sam winced. She’d take getting busted by the press all over again rather than be referred to as a mistake. In the dark he thankfully didn’t notice the way his words stung. “I knew we were being tailed.”
    “ This is my fault.”
    “ How you figure?” He ran a yellow light.
    “ You tried to warn me. I forced you to go inside.”
    “ Forced?” He looked in the rearview mirror. “That’s dramatic since no one forced me to get out of the car and join you. No one forced me to almost kiss you.”
    She opened her mouth to remind him she ’d goaded him with picking out dildos, but his cell began to ring a moment before the dash’s Bluetooth lit up with Jase’s I.D.
    “ He can’t possibly already know.” The press worked on speed dial if he did.
    “ I bet he does.” Heath depressed the button on the wheel and answered the call on speaker. “Hey, Jase.”
    “ You’re making out with my sister in a sex store !” Jase exhibited his not-so-subtle side.
    “ It’s not what it looked like,” she tried to console him.
    “ It was
