Her head was still spinning at the good news as she smiled up at Jeff. “Thank you,” she said. “For protecting me.”For showing me how good sex could be and ruining me for all other men.She forced her smile not to slip. At least the experience with Jeff would encourage her to maintain high standards.
“It was my plea—” Hecleared his throat and stuck his hands in his front pockets. “Of course.”
She wanted to hug him, but it would have been awkward. Forced. She took a deep breath and dug out her phone. “I guess I should check flights.”

She might have to stay another night. A little thrill went through her. Would hewant her in his bed?
Did she want to be there?
Stupid question.
On her phone, she pulled up a search engine and looked for flights. “There’s one at six a.m. The only other one with available seats leaves around noon.”
“With luck, I’ll be driving back tomorrow anyway to pick up my car and talk to Kurt. You could…” He ran a hand through his hair and met her gaze. “Would you stay with me?”
