great pleasure in setting the languid pace, reveling in every shimmer of her muscles, every tingle in her womb. She swore she could hear Jason gritting his teeth behind her, which ramped up her own excitement as she considered the view he had of her.
    He mumbled something under his breath and then grasped her hips tightly, holding her still. Megan braced her feet on the lower chair rungs and moved her hands to her own knees, barely stable before he thrust his hips upward, filling her…
    Megan moved her hips, more of an involuntary jerking, the breath leaving her body as Jason continued to slam upward into her convulsing flesh. Her lungs froze, her stomach seized and the release she’d been working toward exploded, sending shock waves through her body. She grasped her own knees more tightly, his long, hard thrusts drawing out the overpowering sensations even as his rapid breathing told of his own impending climax.
    She heard a long, winding groan and knew he’d found it.
    Nothing but the sound of the air conditioner and their heavy breathing filled the room as she leaned back against him. His hands skimmed her inner thighs, lingering briefly on her damp, quivering flesh, and then budged up over her trembling stomach before finally cupping her breasts.
    A fresh thrill ran the length of her.
    They were both tired and sweaty.
    “More?” he whispered into her ear.
    Megan swallowed hard. “Oh, God, yes…”

    TWO HOURS LATER, Megan had collapsed facedown on the bed, Jason dropping on top of her. Finally, she felt adequately satisfied. At one point, he’d complained that he wasn’t enough man for her and she’d laughed…before bringing him to full erectness again and riding him for all he was worth.
    “What time is it?” Jason asked.
    The bedspread was half over the nightstand, blocking the clock. Megan yanked on it twice before it slid off.
    “After two.”
    “I need to hightail it back to my room. We’ve got to be up in three hours.”
    She hummed her agreement but noticed neither one of them made any effort to move.
    She wiggled her bottom slightly.
    Finally, he groaned and rolled off her.
    “Woman, you’re insatiable.”
    She stayed where she was, her head turned the other way. “I don’t recall hearing any complaints.” She smiled against the sheets. “Oh, okay. Maybe one.”
    “That wasn’t a complaint. It was a statement of wonder.”
    She laughed huskily. “Mmm…”
    He slapped her bare ass. It stung but she was too relaxed to make any kind of clear response beyond whispering, “Ow.”
    “I’m going. You’ll want to lock the door behind me.”
    “It self-locks.”
    “Not the chain.”
    “Someone would have to be insane to try to break in here.”
    “Yeah, well, there are a lot of crazies running around out there.”
    “Fair enough.”
    She didn’t budge.
    “Megan.”
    “What?”
    “Come lock the door.”
    “I will.” She waved at him.
    He chuckled and then left the room, closing the door quietly behind him.
    Megan nestled into the bed more comfortably and promptly dropped off to sleep, thankful to have a friend like Jason….

    THE FOLLOWING MORNING, Megan felt as if she’d run a fifty-mile marathon—and won. Gone was the stress that had weighed heavily on her like a constant load and she was able to refocus her energies on the job at hand.
    If she felt a secret little thrill every time she and Jason passed each other within smelling distance, well, only the two of them had to know that.
    No, she didn’t want him again. In fact, she hadn’t really had him. Not in any way that counted. They’d been two adults seeking physical release and had found it.
    She took a deep breath, feeling more relaxed than she had in months, and was thankful.
    It was 7:00 a.m. and the half of the team dedicated to going back over the ground they’d already covered had already left. Now the remaining members—including her and Jason—were discussing alternative approaches.
    While their primary job
