“Me, too, honey.” He took her mouth again, his fingers moving faster as he played her like a virtuoso who’d been born to pleasure her and only her. Somehow, he seemed to know what she needed before she did. “No thinking,” he whispered as he coaxed her up and over one more time. “Beautiful, amazing, so sexy. Open your eyes.”

When she complied, he said, “The next time you’re wondering if I like what you’ve got going on down there, remember this.” He withdrew his hand from between her legs and brought it up to his mouth, licking each finger clean of her essence.

With her snuggled into his embrace, Adam was aware of the exact second when Abby drifted off to sleep. She thought he’d undone her. How about what she’d done to him? Watching her let go of her inhibitions and disappear into the moment had been among the most erotically charged experiences of his life.

With his left hand propped on the shower wall, he wrapped his right hand around the base of his penis and stroked, grimacing at the painful pleasure.

His entire focus was on the slide of his hand, which was why he didn’t feel the shower door open until the cool air jarred him out of the trance he’d slipped into.
