‘Wow. Fuck, Sarah. You’re a vision.’

That was the understatement of the millennium.

She was wearing a bold, fitted orange dress with thin spaghetti straps and a daring thigh-high slit which showed off her beautiful smooth legs. It was the perfect balance of sexiness and sophistication, and I loved it.

Everything about her was perfect. She was flawless. Trent was an absolute idiot to let a woman like her slip through his fingers.

I knew we had the wedding to get to, but all I wanted to do right now was scoop her up in my arms, throw her down on the bed and fuck her until I made her come so hard that everyone heard her cries of ecstasy. Just like I’d told Trent she did before.

My dick twitched at the thought and I mentally chastised it. Wanking was supposed to take the edge off and make me want her less, but the relief was only short-lived.

And that was when I realised that faking this wasn’t enough anymore.

I wanted Sarah for real.

SARAH

‘Thanks,’ I said, my cheeks heating at Ben’s compliment.

I was happy with how I looked today. Debbie decided against having bridesmaids. Probably because she knew it’d get messy if Esme and I had to spend time together. That meant I’d been able to choose my own outfit and as hard as it was to toot my own horn, I thought I’d scrubbed up well.

But hearing Ben say that I looked likea visiondid all sorts of crazy stuff to my body.

My pulse raced, my heart thudded and my pussy tingled.

God. If I didn’t spend an hour and a half getting ready and didn’t have my brother’s wedding to go to, I swear I’d ask Ben to fuck me, right here, right now. To hell with the consequences.

I didn’t even have the words to describe how incredible Ben looked.

He was wearing a light blue linen suit with a white open-neck shirt. His hair was still damp from the shower, so it was wavy on top, and those eyes… that mouth and now his dimple was showing.

Lord have mercy.

I couldn’t take it.

It should be illegal for any man to look this good.

‘You look…’ I paused, searching for an adjective that wouldn’t reveal how much I wanted him right now.

‘Is the suit too casual?’ he asked. ‘I have another pair of trousers I can…’

‘No, Ben. You don’t need to change. You look hot, okay?’ I blew out a frustrated breath. I couldn’t hide it anymore. ‘If you looked any hotter, you’d set the hotel on fire and then they’d have to cancel the wedding, which my brother would not be happy about!’

A satisfied grin spread across his face.

‘Thanks. I appreciate that. But if anyone will be setting fires with their hotness, it’ll be you.’

OMG.

Ben likes me.

I wasn’t the best at reading the signs, but as he scanned me from head to toe, then back up again, I knew he was undressing me with his eyes.

And when I started doing the same to him and my gaze stopped between his legs, I saw the outline of his dick.

He was hard.
