“Frustrated and jittery, she finally flung herself from the sweat-damp sheets and hurried into the kitchen to brew some tea. She sipped slowly, staring out her kitchen window at the building’s rear parking lot. She thought of Max, his dark gaze and the way her body responded to his voice and his touch.
