Pop-Tart in the toaster, right? And even those wind up burnt most of the time. But nice try.”
    Embry shook her head. Her phone buzzed, and Luke’s name popped up.
     
    Hi beautiful. Looking forward to tonight.
     
    Embry looked up with a huge grin and showed Morgan the text.
    “You really think you’re going to get any studying done with that fine piece of man in your apartment? I’m pretty sure everyone in the atrium felt the sex pulsing between you two. Ask Jeremy to send you his notes because the last thing you’ll be doing tonight is homework.” Morgan winked.
    Embry raised an eyebrow. “Are you calling me a slut, Morgan Jade?”
    “If the slutty shoe fits.”
    Embry narrowed her eyes, and both girls broke out into giggles.
    Composing herself, Morgan grabbed her things from the table. “All right, girlie, time for class. I’ll text you after. If you’re having a night in, I don’t think I need to come dress you, but I still want updates.”
    “Yeah, yeah. I’ll text you later.”
    Embry waved good-bye to Morgan and walked toward her next class. She pulled out her phone to text Luke and walked into what felt like a solid chest. I need to stop walking into people in hallways. Embry mumbled an apology without looking up and made her way around the chest in question. She froze when two big hands lightly gripped her shoulders.
    “Fancy meeting you here.”
    Embry’s eyes shot up. Luke stared down at her, smirking. “Hmmm, I have a thing for good-looking men in hallways,” Embry joked. “I was actually just texting you back.”
    “Well now you can tell me in person,” he said in that deep, sexy voice.
    Embry noticed that his hands were still gripping her arms. He gently rubbed his thumbs back and forth across her skin, and for a second, she forgot how to speak. Nervously shoving her hair behind her ear, she looked up through her long eyelashes. “I, um … I can’t wait for tonight.”
    Luke gave her a dazzling smile. “Me neither.” He glanced over her shoulder and dropped his hands. “I have to run; I’ll see you at six?”
    “Yep. I’ll text you my address.”
    Embry walked into her classroom and plopped down next to Jeremy. “Hey, stranger.”
    “Hey, Blondie. How was your weekend?”
    “It was good. Yours?”
    “Great. How was the social?”
    “It was fun! You were missed,” Embry said, nudging his arm.
    “Hopefully there’ll be more!”
    “Yeah. You can bring Becky along next time,” she suggested.
    “Nah, she turned out to be a dud. I wound up hanging out with Angela from section two.”
    Embry’s mouth fell open.
    The professor walked in, ending their conversation. Embry spent the entire class mindlessly typing notes and daydreaming about Luke. Thank God her professor put an outline up on the projector, because Embry didn’t hear a word he said.
    By the time class was over, she was a nervous wreck. What was I thinking inviting him to my apartment? Embry hadn’t been alone with a man in quite a while, and she wasn’t sure being alone with Luke was the best idea. At the same time, she couldn’t wait to spend some time with him. She tapped out a quick text giving Luke her address and headed home to get ready.
    She walked through her apartment door and immediately regretted inviting him over. Ugh, when did this place become such a mess? Embry ran around picking up shoes and purses and shoving them in her closet. All of her law textbooks were strewn around the apartment, so she stacked them neatly on her desk.
    Once she’d cleaned the apartment, she had about an hour until Luke came over. She hopped in the shower, and shaved in all the important places, just in case. She blow-dried and curled her hair, threw on some makeup, and stared into her underwear drawer. Lace or practical? Sexy or cute? He is so not seeing my underwear tonight.
    Embry was startled out of her thoughts by her phone. She grabbed it and saw that she had a text from Luke. He was on his way. Crap. She grabbed a
