crawled toward her, nuzzling her back on the bed until she hit the pillows resting against the headboard.
    She flushed as she looked up at him, her mind whirling with all the things she wanted him to do to her. He seemed to read her mind and his eyes flashed, and the tension in the room ratcheted up another few degrees. It was far too hot. She reached for the hem of her swim cover-up and pulled it smoothly over her head, baring her to him in her swimsuit. Somehow, she didn’t feel self-conscious at all. Something in his gaze just made her feel unconditionally loved.
    He licked his lips as he eyed her body. “You’re gorgeous. You’re even more beautiful than I remember.”
    “How can that be?” she asked. “I must have been in my twenties when we were separated. In my prime.”
    “But I’d never had a chance to miss you then. I never knew how much more beautiful you could be until I could only see you in my dreams every night.”
    “You’ve been dreaming of me?” she asked, heart breaking for him. For both of them. There was magic in the room, something animal swirling between them. She didn’t understand it, but she didn’t have to. She just wanted to go with it.
    “Of course,” he said. “Every night.”
    She swallowed. “I’ve dreamed of you too. But I didn’t know who I was dreaming of until I saw that commercial.”
    “It’s always been you,” he said, leaning forward to place a kiss at the base of her neck as he gently trailed up to her ear. He nibbled lightly on her ear, making her squirm as shocks shot through her, and then he let his lips hover over the shell of her ear. “There’s never been anyone since you.”
    She blinked in shock but didn’t have time to stay surprised because his warm, firm hand moved over her breast and she let out a soft groan. She arched against him, needing more of his touch, and then reached down to move her strap, baring herself to him wantonly. It didn’t matter. It felt like she already belonged to him. It felt right.
    His eyes softened as his thumb lightly moved over her nipple, just grazing it and watching it come to hard, full-colored life. His gaze became hot as he looked into her eyes and took her breast in his mouth, swirling his tongue around her gracefully as heat continued to pool between her legs. An ache was building there, as her head remembered just what kind of magic he could work while inside her.
    How could anyone make love to a man like this and live to forget it? She knew she’d never forget it now. His hand reached down between her legs, and he sighed.
    “Damn, I missed the feel of that. Knowing you wanted me. Knowing you were ready.”
    She nodded, throat painfully tight. “So ready.” It felt like her body had been waiting for this for twenty years. It probably had. Did love really go on like that, whether it was remembered or not?
    Still, it appeared he’d been storing their love for both of them, and it touched her deeply that he’d never let go. A man like this could have been with anyone. A man like this shouldn’t have been alone for twenty years. Yet, looking at his face in utter rapture as he explored her body, she believed him when he said there’d been no one for him but her.
    There’d been no one for her but him.
    It was a once-in-a-lifetime story, but she didn’t know if it could possibly have a happy ending with such a tragic interim.
    She decided to settle for happy-for-now, leaning happily into the blankets as he peeled her swimsuit down her body, eyes opening with wonder at the shape of her curves, hands tracing over her like he was hoping to memorize the feel, make it even more real for himself. What would it be like to find someone after waiting twenty years? He was the one who’d really suffered, yet here he was, loving her, patiently waiting for her to figure out what had happened.
    He parted her legs and moved to kiss her there. It should have felt shockingly intimate, but instead, it was just deliciously
