“But I shouldn’t have let things get out of hand—”

“What if I wanted things to get out of hand?” Her gaze searched his “I kissed you Enzo, I’ve wanted to kiss you for the longest tie”

Wow! Where had that come from? She never talked this boldly to men Maybe that hy she didn’t have a steady boyfriend—why she was still a virgin In the past, she could bla mother But noas all on her—what did or didn’t happen was totally up to her

She was tired of standing on the sidelines, watching her life rush past her It was ti about those things It was tie of her life

And right now she wanted Enzo

She trusted him more than anyone else in the world These past few ether She knew hihtful And he had a big heart where his family was concerned

And then there was his looks Min to describe him His dark eyes were ed to unravel And his thick brown hair ertips through it And his mouth, well, she’d already proven it was most desirable

For a istered his surprise at her forwardness Part of her was proud of herself for speaking up The other part of her was scared that he would let her doith a painful thump to her heart

His gaze searched hers “Sylvie, I’ serious I—”

She placed a fingertip to those kissable lips “I’ you for the here and now Let tomorrow take care of itself”

Hesitation showed in his eyes “I don’t want to hurt you”

The fact he cared that hout the trials and tribulations of her life, she’d learned to be cautious with her heart

She sent hi smile “You won’t hurt me You’ve always been so sweet and kind”

Silence greeted her very honest words All of this openness had her heart racing What was she going to do if this all blew up in her face? After all, she was no temptress She was not experienced in the ways ofan utter fool of herself
