“Tell me, why would we want to carry the LolaRing?”

“Because it is the ultimate couple’s pleasure device. Nothing even comes close to it. I even have the perfect slogan for it. You’ve given her a diamond ring, now give her the LolaRing,” Casey said, layering suggestiveness into her tone. My God, this woman couldn’t be anything but the CEO of a sex toy company.

He had to be careful, though. He had to think with his brain, not with his dick. Because his dick had a very specific agenda when it came to Casey: get inside her. He put on his business brain and ignored all that he was feeling below the belt. Because the reality was, her idea rocked. “I have one question for you, Casey.”

She raised an eyebrow. “Yes?”

“Actually, I have a couple of questions. One. How long have we been friends?”

“A few years. Why?”

“Two, then why on earth have we never done a partnership before? Because this is an awesome idea.”

She clapped, and smiled so broadly, he swore he’d never seen her that happy before. He always wanted to see her this happy.

“You really like it?”

He nodded several times. “I really do love it. I think it needs to be done well, like everything. We run a luxury hotel; you run a high-end premium sex toy company. There are natural alignments. The key is pulling it off in a way that is classy and sexy. But that’s exactly what Joy Delivered is known for. You are the classy and sexy toy company.”

“It can be great for both of us,” she said, beaming.

“I have to agree. However,” he said, taking his time on that last word. However. It was the kind of word that was known for derailing business ideas. It was the kind of word that set off alarms in the person you were negotiating with. He had chosen it purposefully. He wanted to throw her off, or perhaps just to surprise her. “I would personally feel better if I were able to vouch for this product. We’re going to need to use it.”

The look in her eyes was priceless. They blazed with sexuality and desire. He was willing to bet she was turned on something fierce. “Do you have one packed and ready to take to London on our flight tonight?”

She shook her head. “But can we swing by my office? I’ll grab one there,” she said, the most eager tone to her voice. He loved her willingness to go the extra mile for pleasure, and for business.

“Absolutely. By the way, how would you feel about babysitting again, because you seem to come up with really amazing sex ideas when you’re surrounded by my wet T-shirt and two small children.”

As she laughed, he heard the sound of a key in the lock. Kat and Bryan were home and they took in the scene—Nate and Casey lounging on the couch, a carton of ice cream between them, two babies fast asleep on their chests.
