first time. He lingered in her closet, the shirt between his fingers.
    “Tom?” Mia spoke up, standing in the adjacent bathroom.
    It surprised him how hard it was to let go of that shirt. He wanted to rip it off the hanger and take it with him. But he finally let the red fabric slide from his fingers and turned his attention to her. “Sorry, memories,” he said and joined her in the bathroom, still lost in thought.
    Tom continued on through the bathroom and finally stood inside of her bedroom. Mia stood before him in the center, clearly nervous. He liked that. “And this is my bedroom. All this furniture is pretty much from my old apartment aside from the chaise. That’s really the only new thing in here.”
    Staring at her, he couldn’t stop the flood of memories hitting him of her above him, his fingers kneading her breasts, her moving against him. The desire to have her again was intense, and he didn’t want to fight it.
    “Tom?”
    Storming forward, Tom cupped her face and crashed his mouth upon hers, tasting her sweet lips against his. It took a moment for the lack of movement on her part to register with him and when it did, he backed away, his eyes searching hers for clues. “Is this okay?”
    Mia didn’t take long to answer. “Yes,” she replied and pulled him back to her.
    Hell yes , he thought, wanting to immediately up the voltage of this kiss. He needed inside of her mouth. The instant the tip of his tongue touched her bottom lip, she opened for him, his tongue assaulting hers. Her fingers fell to his waist, gripping his belt loops as his mouth, lips, and tongue, bullied her into submission.
    His hands learned the curves and planes of her back before stopping on her ass. He groaned then squeezed, pulling her against him. When her stomach hit his hard cock, the hottest moan fell from her lips, making his dick twitch. Then she tilted her head to deepen the kiss, and wrapped her arms around his neck. With almost frantic movements, he undressed her as he backed her up to the bed. When her body hit the bed, she was as naked as the day she was born.
    He stood above her, hypnotized by her nudity. Fuck. He couldn’t stop looking at her, his eyes cataloging everything, including the adorable pink bandage covering her knee. The woman who had captured his heart years ago was below him, ready for him. With a shake of his head he got to work. Lifting his arms, he ripped his T-shirt over his head.
    She was a damn vision.
    As her heavy-lidded eyes worked their way from his chest downward, he removed his pants. Tom was as hard as a hammer and wanted to pound the hell out of her.
    A grin split her lips when her eyes widened in surprise after landing on his cock. Hovering over her, he spoke against her neck. “Still so beautiful.”
    Nudging her head back with his nose, he placed soft kisses along her delicious neck then nipped her, followed by another soft kiss. Tom wasn’t a gentle lover . . . he liked to push the boundaries. Mia had liked it that one night, and he’d be sure to do it again right now.
    Using his teeth, he created a trail of goose bumps over her shoulder and down her chest until he reached her breast where he couldn’t resist taking a bite. She screamed out yet held him in place. He captured her nipple between his lips and sucked away the soreness he’d caused.
    The sexy noises coming from her continued as he paid special attention to her perfect breasts while sneaking his hand downward, zeroing in on the small nub that had her screaming out.
    Fuck!
    With just a few swipes to her clit, he had her coming.
    “So responsive, Mia,” he said, his voice rough with his desire before continuing his exploration.
    Needing to sample her back as well as see that ass of hers in the air, he flipped her over. As his lips tickled up her back, Tom wrapped his fist with her hair and pulled her head back to claim her lips in a possessive kiss. In this moment, Mia was his and he wanted her to know it.
    Molding his
