Lovers In Hiding. Susan Kearney

Чтение книги онлайн.

      “I want you, Melinda.”

      “You’ll get over it.”

      Her words might have been flippant, but every muscle in her body tensed as if for war.

      “There’s only one way I want to be over you. Naked. In a nice soft bed, with our clothes strewn across the floor.”

      “Wish all you want. It’s not going to happen.”

      She tossed her hair over her shoulder and looked out the passenger window. Her body language couldn’t be clearer. She was going to ignore him.

      But he had no intention of letting her do so, not after he’d glimpsed the simmering heat in her eyes.

      “I’m taking you to a houseboat on the St. John’s River. It’ll be private and romantic. The boat is fully stocked with food.”

      “I’m not hungry.”

      He lowered his voice. “You will be.”

      “Don’t you get it? I don’t want you.”

      “You will,” he promised. “You will.”
