      He was rendered speechless as his eyes fastened on the young woman descending the stairs.

      Angelina possessed the grace and beauty of a Grecian goddess and the regal bearing of a queen.

      When she reached the bottom step, Alex took her hand. A slow, appreciative smile worked its way across his face as his eyes leisurely roamed over her body. The unspoken compliment made her blood run warm.

      “You look entrancing,” he said in a quiet voice. “I’m delighted you were able to join us—if tardily.”

      “I’m sorry. Am I late?” The look she gave him was one of unadulterated innocence.

      “You know you are. What were you trying to do? Hold out to make a grand entrance?”

      “What? Me? Really, Alex—you know me better than that,” she murmured meaningfully.

      He glanced down at her with a hooded gaze. “Do I?”

      She smiled impishly. “No one knows me better,” she breathed.
