we can see
each other in person?”
    He sucked in his breath, quiet for a moment. “You don’t play
right,” he sulked.
    She laughed again. “Are you rushing over? I’ll wait
downstairs so you don’t jump me. We don’t want to skip our reservations, ‘cause
I starved all day for this.”
    “I’ll be right there, baby.”
    Her stomach tightened. That endearment was so sexy the way
it rolled off his tongue.
    Leaving her cards splayed on the table, she grabbed her
trench coat and purse and headed downstairs.
    He’d just entered the building and she realized he’d called
her from his car outside. She was before him in an instant.
    He was magnificent. His shoulders were so broad, it looked
as though the turtleneck he wore had to be specially made to fit the width of
him.
    The gray dress slacks he wore did nothing to hide the huge
columns of thigh muscles beneath them. Sara had a brief moment of wondering
what it would be like to run her tongue along those thighs.
    His eyes glittered blue, sparkling against the tan of his
skin when he took in the sight of her.
    “Hi,” she said, raising her arms to place possessively
around his neck, because right now, in this moment, he was hers. It felt so
right, as though they belonged there forever. As though they’d been together
for years instead of just meeting. The same feeling she had with Aric, although
she was more cautious with him since she was already sleeping with Beau.
    “Hi,” he growled back. “I missed you.”
    “Is that why your voice is all deep and gravelly?”
    “Is it deep and gravelly? ‘Cause husky sounds sexier.”
    “Deep is very sexy,” she said, kissing him lightly.
    “My car’s running, baby. Let’s go.”
    She turned away from him, but he pulled her close with an
arm around her waist.
    They walked outside and she briefly wondered how his car
could possibly still be there when he’d left it unlocked and running. No one
was near his expensive car, however, as if they sensed that Beau was larger
than life and it was best to leave his property alone.
    He held the car door open and she sat inside while he came
around the driver’s side.
    He clasped her hand in his and drove with his left.
    “Where are we going to eat?” she asked.
    “Posh little place.”
    “I’m not dressed for posh.”
    He grinned. “You look fine, baby. But if you’re
uncomfortable with your clothes, you could always take them off.”
    She almost riled up at his teasing until she realized he was
trying to get a rise out of her. She leaned back against the seat instead.
    “That might be kind of fun. In a kinky sort of way. To
arrive naked, holding on to your arm, attracting all kinds of attention, male
attention. I can just imagine their faces as all eyes focus on me…”
    “No one’s seeing you naked,” he growled.
    She laughed and he realized his mistake.
    “Minx.”
    They walked into the restaurant and Sara was very aware of
how much attention Beau commanded. And why not? Not only was he rich and
handsome, but he looked like walking sex. She felt like snarling at a woman who
let her eyes follow him scandalously. He was also fun to be with and…she couldn’t
stand to be without him, she realized.
    Geez, she’d fallen for him fast and hard. Too fast.
    While they were seated and had dinner, she tried to think of
Aric. If she couldn’t conjure up his image while with Beau, she’d know which
one to date.
    Aric’s face came easily to mind. The opposite of Beau’s,
except for the clear, pale eyes mimicked in green instead of blue. His hair
dark and gleaming, his skin pale instead of tanned and a hint of sexy shadow on
his cheeks and jaw. Still just as beautiful and just as desirable.
    Okay, personality-wise, which one did she enjoy more? The
fun, down-to-earth Beau? Who was extremely powerful and masterful in the
bedroom?
    Or the seductive quality of Aric? Who was also erotic in her
dreams? Should she hop into bed with Aric so she could compare the two? It
