“Savannah, we’re going to kiss,” Mike said.

“It might as well be now,” he added in a whispered Texas drawl. He slipped his arm around her waist and pulled her to him.

Savannah placed her hands on his chest, ready to voice her protest when his lips brushed hers lightly and her heart thudded.

At that moment she wanted his kiss with all her being. She couldn’t think about what was best or if she shouldn’t or that he really didn’t want this either. The stubble on his jaw scraped her skin slightly while his warmth, his strength and his lean, hard body heightened her pleasure.

Finally, as she paused, he released her slightly.

“A kiss isn’t a binding commitment,” he said. “A long, warm kiss on a cold winter’s night even beats hot chocolate.”

She suspected he attempted to make light of the moment, but that was impossible. They both had kissed away wise decisions.

“Savannah, we won’t fall in love—I promise you.” So said him.
