Hot Shots Chapter 35
Josh wiped his hands on the grease rag he kept tucked in his back pocket and heaved a sigh of relief. Wrestling a new radiator into place on the big pickup with the double cab and the jacked up tires had taken longer than he expected. He wished he could figure a tactful way to get Antony to pass along to his customer the value of continued, regular maintenance. He could have spent the entire afternoon on this baby alone. But hey, it wasn't his garage. He did the jobs he was given and made sure he did them right.He stretched and tried to stifle a yawn."Too many late nights?"He looked over to see Tank grinning at him. Rather than being giant-sized as the name indicated, Tank Murphy was tall and lanky. But he had muscles of steel, and Antony once said he was sure the man was an engine whisperer. He could fix anything no matter how crappy the shape it came in."Nope." Josh shook his head. "As a matter of fact, early to bed is my motto." Then he snapped his mouth shut. In less than a

Kristin was such a nervous wreck she had to laugh at herself. She was glad Sophia was at the pub and not sitting here in her bedroom laughing at her. She was thirty-two years old, for god's sake, not some shy young virgin. Not that she'd had all that many lovers. And the ones she'd picked had sure turned out to be duds, leaving her to question her taste in men and her ability to judge them.Hadn't she made up her mind, agreeing with Josh this was for fun and nothing more? No strings or commitments? After all she'd be gone in a few weeks, and who knew how long he'd be around. For the first time in forever, she could be with a man and not worry about her future or the rest of her life. Yup. The "test drive" they'd agreed to was working out well. So why was she dealing with a bad case of the jitters?Stop it! Get dressed and go have fun. Just. Plain. Fun.Okay, then.By the time Josh rang the doorbell, she had her overnight bag packed with a naughty nightie she'd picked up in Lexingto

"We may be doing this for nothing more than fun, Kristin. Not anything serious. But that doesn't mean I'm going to take you to a motel for a quick roll in the hay. I like to think I've got more class than that.""But Josh," she protested again. "The cost has to be - "He touched two fingers to her lips. "Antony pays me a good salary, and what else do I have to spend it on?""B-but don't you want to save so you can find some place to live besides Mrs. Patterson's?"He cupped her chin and tilted her face up to his. "I'm doing fine, Kristin. This won't put any kind of dent in my budget. Now stash the adding machine for the night, and come let me show you the bathroom. I've only seen it in pictures."She lifted her eyebrows. "The bathroom?""Uh-huh."He guided her to a door beside the bed. When he opened it, her breath caught. The owners had definitely maximized the space. Besides the double sinks set in a marble vanity, the room held a glass enclosed shower and the centerpiece of t

Holy mother of god!The woman was so magnificent, he couldn't find words to describe her. Every bit of saliva in his mouth dried up at the sight of her. Petite, with honey-brown curls covering her mound, rounded breasts, and curves in all the right places. Smooth skin with a hint of Kentucky tan. Her nipples were a dusky rose, and, right now, they were swollen and pointing directly at him. He wanted to run his fingers and his tongue over every single inch of her, lick her until his mouth was filled with the flavor of her and then start all over again."Now you," she reminded him in a soft voice. "You need your clothes off.""Soon. Pretty soon."He didn't dare remove them until he got himself under control. Otherwise, he'd be no better than the teenage boy he'd once been. He cupped her face in his palms and placed a gentle kiss on her lips before urging her back until she was half-lying on the bed. He knelt between her legs and placed her hands on either side of her hips."Don't mo

He stood a moment and watched as she ran her eyes over him. He smiled when she actually licked her lips. He wasn't a man with an overdeveloped ego but he knew he kept his body in damn good shape. He had to in his line of work. He waited until she'd taken in every inch of him, including his swollen cock protruding from his body with hungry determination.When his self-discipline was nearly at an end, he reached into his duffel and pulled out a handful of condoms, dropping them on the nightstand."Optimistic, are we?" she teased."Let's say hopeful. I've sort of been on a diet where this is concerned."She gave a ladylike snort. "Interesting. So have I."He reached down and adjusted her on the bed so her head was on the pillows and her legs splayed out. Climbing onto the mattress, he knelt between her thighs and paused to let his eyes feast on her body for a long moment. He cupped her breasts in his hands, letting them rest in his palms while he rasped his thumbs over the nipples.
Hot Shots Chapter 40
This is either the best thing I've ever done or the stupidest.Kristin kept repeating it in her head over and over as she headed back to Lucasville. She should have rescheduled her appointment because she was so distracted she knew the pictures would come out looking like shit. The owners of today's horse farm were beyond gracious. Kristin was sure she came off as a bumbling idiot and would probably have to figure out how to schedule a retake.So much for her new outlook on life, her decision to forget about men, and her vow to focus on nothing but her job. She'd heard all about Murphy's Law, but Kristin's Law outdid it: If it is possible to fuck anything up, I will do it.She never should have agreed to the weekend at the bed and breakfast. But she'd thought, okay, just fun. Right? Lighthearted fun and lighthearted sex. Only it appeared with Josh Everett, sex was anything but lighthearted. It was intense and exciting and satisfying in a way she'd never known before. He hadn't left

"Andy Grant here."Josh clutched his cell phone, stomach tightening the moment he heard his manager's voice."Hey, Andy. It's me."There was silence for so long at the other end of the connection he wondered if Andy had hung up."So you're not dead."Josh blew out a breath. Andy's voice was so flat and even he wondered if the man was going to tell him how glad he was Josh had surfaced or tell him to go to hell."Nope." He tried to lighten his voice. "Still walking, talking, and breathing.""You ready to come back to the land of the living?"Was he? Was he ready for this, even though he wasn't sure if he could drive? But he owed Andy a meeting, if nothing else."Only if you keep it between us for a little while longer."Another long pause."How long would that be?""Not very." He raked his fingers through his hair. "Andy, I'm real sorry I left you in the lurch the way I did. I know it was a rotten thing to do. But I was so fucked up after the accident, I didn't know if I'd e
Hot Shots Chapter 42
They were cuddled on the big four poster, naked and exhausted but unwilling to stop touching each other. Josh had thought he'd never find a woman who completed him the way Kristin did. Who gave of herself so unselfishly in bed. Who was both strong and undemanding. Didn't it figure the minute he found someone like that, he might be getting ready to walk away from her.Less than a month had passed since their first date, and he couldn't pinpoint exactly when the Just for fun had turned into something else. Neither of them had put it into words, as if saying it out loud might spoil something. But this was definitely way past casual."I need to tell you something." He kept his arm wrapped around her, stroking her with his free hand.Next to him, her body tensed."Is this something good or something bad?""Don't know yet. Might turn out to be good. I hope so. Anyway. But the thing is, I'm taking two days off from the garage next week. I have some stuff I need to do.""Oh?"If possibl
