“Oh!”She shoved my chest.
I startled, opening my eyes that I hadn’t realized I’d closed.
“Shit, sorry, were you asleep?”she asked.
“Just somewhere in between.”I shook my head, a lopsided grin forming on my lips.“What’s up?”
“You can help me brush up on my euchre skills.”
“You’re thinking about euchre right now?”
“I was invited to play with the club next week.”
I winced.“There’s no ‘brushing up on your skills.’Those women are going to annihilate you.”
Her jaw dropped and her eyes widened.“I can hold my own with a deck of cards.”
“No.Leese, you don’t know these women.It is the town’s hub for information, you should go, but they’re gonna wipe the floor with you.”
She shook her head, a blazing fire in her eyes.
“Okay, listen to me.”I ran a hand down her hip.“I know you’re good.You’re a top-notch strategist and a solid euchre player, but these women are ...brutal.They’re gonna wreck your shit.It’s not your fault.You don’t stand a chance, Leese.”
“I do not accept defeat.”
“I know you don’t.”
She ran her tongue across her front teeth.“Have you ever been?”
“Women’s only club, but I’ve heard tale.”
“Been the subject of conversation there?”
“I’ve gotten that impression.”It wasn’t a big deal, everyone in town had been the focus of the club from time to time.
“What’s the big rumor about Remi these days?”The tilt of her lips was doing things to my brain—and the rest of me too.It was an invitation to play with fire.
“Right now?”My voice dropped a bit lower in a way I knew she liked.I took hold of her hip easing her onto her back—hypnotized by the bounce of her tits.“That my neighbor is my ex-wife.”
Fuck.I loved her laugh.
Her eyes were alight and mischievous.“Wouldn’t they love to hear aboutthisdevelopment?”
“I know I’m fucking in love with it,” I said.Kneeling between her thighs, I ran my hands up her sides.
She trailed her touch along the front of my thigh to my pelvis, then to the strip of light brown hair trailing down to my already hard cock.“Jesus Christ, look at you.”
“Look at you,” I groaned, taking her breasts in both of my hands.Her hair was a mess splayed across my bed.The pale freckles on the bridge of her nose matched the few on her shoulders.She was all slopes and valleys.So soft, and strong.
Lowering, I trailed kisses down her shoulder.I had placed my mouth on every inch of her.It’d only made me hungry for more.
“Remi?”
Something in her tone made me freeze.I turned to face her; her lip caught between her teeth.“Yeah?”
“Can I see the photos you have of me?”
I snorted, completely caught off guard.
