Hard Core (Hard As Nails book 3)
“I alternate watching the passing city lights and watching him.
He carried me into the hospital and waited with me until the doctor saw me. I’ve stared at him plenty since he rushed in to help me, and he definitely looks different depending on the lighting.
In the light, there’s a hardened quality that goes with his impressive, muscular body, yet at the same time, he’s so handsome, so pretty even, that it’s easy to let my guard down. Here in the dark, however, there’s a feral, dangerous quality ...to him, and I know some part of me should be afraid.
I’m not, and I don’t know why I’m not. Maybe it’s because he’s shown me more consideration than the majority of men in my life, with the exception of my father. He didn’t have to help me. Plus, if he hadn’t insisted I go to the hospital, I probably would have broken my ankle parading around that darn strip club.
He did help me though, without wanting or demanding anything in return. Yet.
And instead of dreading what he might demand as pay-back, I find my mind conjuring up all sorts of different scenarios and my body responding with enthusiastic interest.MoreLess
