Оглавление“You know I want you.”
Eleanor took a step toward Dez. “You’re almost too beautiful to be human, but you’re like a doughnut. I love doughnuts and I want to eat them every day, but I can’t because I’ll get fat.”
“Yeah, but what would life be without the occasional nibble on a doughnut? Maybe just a taste.” He wanted her to say yes, wanted her to toss away those crazy inhibitions that held her back.
“I could so easily, you know.”
“I won’t hurt you.”
“That’s what they all say,” she whispered.
“Let’s make a deal.” Dez cupped her jaw, studying those delicious lips. “If things feel too much, too serious, we walk away.”
Eleanor closed her eyes with a harsh laugh. “You can’t walk away when the heart gets involved.”
“You’re thinking too damn much,” he said.
Then he slid his arms around her and pulled her into his embrace. He was tired of talking. There were better ways of convincing Eleanor this thing between them was worth exploring.
