Flash Point
his hands on her hips. “See how you like this position.”
    Kate nibbled her lip, her cheeks flushing. Ride him. Oh how casually he could make the suggestion. But he was an excellent teacher, clasping her hips in his large hands and easing her down onto his cock.
    She caught her breath as he stretched her, filled her, and only when he was buried to the hilt did she let out her throaty moan. A tremble racked her body and she refused to move for a moment, just leaned forward and pressed her face against his shoulder.
    “Jesus, Kate, you feel incredible,” he choked out and then pressed a kiss against her forehead. “Take your time. This is all you, doll.”
    She bit her lip and squeezed her inner muscles around him, just to see how he’d react. The groan he let out and the way his fingers tightened on her hips showed he approved.
    Drawing in a slow breath, she began to rock back and forth on him. Small, gentle movements that helped her become used to him inside her, until it wasn’t enough and she wanted more.
    She experimented with moving hard and fast, slow and gentle. Lifting up and down. Following the sounds of Todd’s groans as a guide and the way her own body responded. It didn’t matter, though. No matter what she did the sensation was pretty much fantastic.
    And then Todd slid his hands down to her ass and he cupped her hard as he began to thrust up into her, stealing the control he’d promised without apology. She gave it over without a fight, grateful to just cling to his shoulders and feel . Be thoroughly taken.
    The hot, out-of-control sensation grew low in her belly again, spreading throughout her body and swirling in her mind. It was so intense tears filled her eyes as she dug her nails into Todd’s shoulders, her moans mingling with his.
    Even without him directly touching her clit, she was so close to coming because of the angle. She ground down on him, pressing just the right spot, and sent herself into another orgasm.
    Todd pounded up into her, again and again as she trembled through her climax. Then he let out a cry, holding still, before making a couple shallow thrusts and finally staying deep.
    “Oh God,” she whispered raggedly, blinking away the tears. She sensed Todd had also experienced the power and emotional impact behind what had just happened between them.
    She tried to lighten the thickness in the air, by saying, “I’m not going to be able to walk for days.”
    Todd gave an unsteady laugh. “Staying in bed could be fun.”
    “Except you need to work tomorrow and so do I.”
    He lifted his head and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. “Stay the night anyway. We can get up early.”
    Her heart skipped a beat and she glanced down, running her tongue over her lips. Stay another night in bed with Todd. There might even be cuddling—which would make it really hard to remember she was only supposed to be thinking about sex here.
    “Please, Kate.”
    With his soft plea, she gave a small nod. She didn’t really want to go home anyway.
    “Great.” And then he stood up, to her shock, and wrapped her legs around his waist as he moved them to the bedroom.
    It was sexy as hell, but she was really hoping he didn’t throw his back out carrying her. Fireman, Kate, he works out.
    And when she was cuddled up next to him awhile later, falling asleep, she could admit that these two weeks would be worth the risk to her heart.

Chapter Twelve
    Friday came and Todd was itching to get off work and see Kate. She’d been at his house every night this week. It was like the time they spent apart nursed a lit fuse, and when they came together the need and passion just exploded.
    When neither worked, they spent every moment together. And when one of them was working, he couldn’t stop thinking about her. He was pretty sure Kate felt the same by the sweet or sexy text messages she’d send him.
    It had never been like this. Where a week into being with a woman, he still had no desire to run. Well, he
