no sheet…no inhibitions. His cock jerked.
    He forced back the lust that sent blood pounding through his veins, and asked, “Hungry?”
    Her gaze shifted to the tray. Her brows furrowed in obvious curiosity and she crossed to the food. She trailed a finger down the cold bottle of champagne then, one by one lifted each lid. When she’d lifted the last lid, she looked at him.
    “You and Ryan must be hearty eaters.”
    “Well-actually, Ryan left. That’s for you and me.”
    “Left?”
    “Yeah, he uh, well…” How could he explain that Ryan wanted to give Jace a chance to fuck her all by himself?
    “I did not please him?”
    She seemed genuinely surprised.
    “Hell, no—I mean, sure, you pleased him. He’d have to be dead not to have been pleased. He just figured that maybe you and I could get to know each other a little better.” Upon rational thought, they wouldn’t have asked her to accommodate them both at the same time again, anyway.
    She nodded. “Then it will be just you and I.”
    He smiled, glad he’d put on his jeans in readiness for the food delivery. If she saw the way his dick was swelling, she’d never believe that he genuinely wanted to see her fed and comfortable.
    “Would you like a robe?”
    Her mouth twitched in amusement. “My body doesn’t please you?”
    “Honey, I couldn’t be any more pleased.”
    A blush crept up her cheeks as it had in the bedroom. Something stirred deep inside him. She ducked her head and lifted the lid on the shrimp.
    “I’d like to try these, please.”

    Jace laughed. They lay stretched out in front of the fire, plates of food between them, and Lorna had squealed when she dropped cocktail sauce on her arm.
    She paused in licking it off and looked at him. “I made a mess.”
    He laughed harder. When he spread the food out on the rug in front of the fire, she’d eaten the shrimp in dainty bites. He figured her for one of those women who pretended they subsided on practically nothing. But with each dish her gusto increased. She’d tasted everything, and they’d finished off half the food.
    “I adore champagne,” she said. “It’s been far too long since I’ve had it.” “Have all you like,” he said. “We can order more.”
    “You wouldn’t be trying to get me drunk, would you, sir?” She smiled, eyes bright.
    “No ma’am,” he replied. “I would never do such a thing.”
    She laughed full and throaty, then finished off her champagne and set the glass on the carpet between them. “You haven’t touched the strawberries.” She looked up at him. “You don’t like them?”
    “I like them just fine,” he said. “They’re best with chocolate sauce.” His heart jumped into high gear as he lifted the lid on the chocolate.
    Her eyes lit up like a kid at Christmas. “Strawberries and chocolate.”
    She picked up a strawberry and dipped it in the thick sauce. When she slipped the chocolate covered tip in her mouth, Jace thought he would come in his jeans. Her lips closed around the fruit, leaving chocolate on her lips. Her tongue flicked out, lapping at the chocolate.
    He swallowed, but managed in an even voice, “Here, let me help.”
    He leaned across the food and brushed his lips against hers. She closed her eyes as though savoring him as she had the chocolate. There was something about her, the way she focused her attention on him as if he was the only man in the world. One night, he reminded himself, and realized what it was he’d glimpsed in her eyes when they met. This woman wasn’t made for a one night stand.
    He pulled back and she opened her eyes. Her smile nearly stopped his heart.
    “I like chocolate, too,” she said.
    “I see,” he replied. “So, what do you do?”
    “Do?” She bit the rest of the strawberry from the stem.
    “Work, what do you do for a living?”
    “What do you do?” Lorna reached for another strawberry.
    Was she avoiding his eyes? Had she gotten as little information about him and Ryan as
