“Thanks”

Gumby took the stairs two at time The whole way, the hairs at the back of his neck stood on end When he reached the top, he risked a glance Screay

Sure enough, the infuriating and sexy ht at him

And damn if his traitorous cock didn’t love it

IF SHE’D BEEN so Before the dramatic confrontation Now, she’d lost track of Gumby, lied to her friends with the classic I’rade-A bitch to Screw Not that he didn’t deserve every word out of her mouth, but that wasn’t her She wasn’t anybody’s doormat, but she didn’t lose her temper and lash out, either

In her defense, the twoher question up froht from left Any woman would have snapped

That counted as a solid defense, right?
