Her lips parted. Her eyelids closed. Kiss me, Jake. Breathless, she waited.

The pressure of his mouth against hers was firm and sweet. They shared a breath, an incredible intimacy. Excitement bubbled up inside her. She trembled, aware that this might be the best kiss she’d ever had in her entire life, not wanting this moment to end.

Too soon, he withdrew. Her eyes opened and met his. Both of them knew that kissing was inappropriate.

She hadn’t intended to put him in this position, but when he’d spoken so candidly of his father, she’d been touched. Jake wasn’t a man who shared his emotions. The lone wolf. He didn’t involve anyone else in his problems.

But he’d told her. For some reason, he’d trusted her.

“Tomorrow morning,” he said.

“I’ll be ready at eight o’clock.”

She took a backward step as he left the room and closed the door. She and Jake were going to make a very good team.
