the sexiest thing he’d ever seen. Even in her shapeless royal-blue scrubs she looked like temptation-in-waiting. The want and need he kept in check around her stirred and stretched and snapped at the confinement.

“No,” he said. “You’re not going with me.”
She tilted her head slightly, confused and curious and so cute his chest hurt. “Just like that?” she asked.
