ON THEIR FAST DESCENT to the beach, Roman decided that Philly wasn’t exactly the girl he thought he’d known for years. There were unexpected layers to her that he hadn’t noticed before. The temper for one thing. He found that he enjoyed watching her struggle to rein it in. And she had a steely determination that he’d evidently blinded himself to before. He’d seen it in her eyes when she’d told him she had to go to the beach—he’d known that she would have gone without him.

But he’d also experienced that single-minded determination up close and personal when she’d seduced him last night. He wasn’t sure how he’d allowed it to happen. He should have been able to keep his hands off of her—he’d had seven years of practice. Seven years to learn to live with the dull ache of always wanting her. Seven years of telling himself she was too young for him.
