The next ?

Last night, he’d told Abbi Lopez he loved her, didn't he? This really disturbed his equilibriu with his emotions

He stood inside her kitchenette scras as the bacon sizzled in the next pan on the other burner He wanted to make her breakfast The least he could do for her was to make sure she had a hearty first meal of the day And the truth was, Chase actually liked cooking He liked doing a lot of things for her But this was all so wrong They could never really be together For one thing, she didn’t even knoho he really was and this bothered him even more

Abbi’s sweet taste was still on his lips that ht And, , she was so good with her lips Those sinfully sexy lips of hers But he had to get a grip Her sensuality captivated hi that she didn’t even knoho he really was She’d be essentially falling in love with a stranger

His h hiht, he'd barely been able to sleep a wink Confusing emotions had tormented hiuyOf course, deep down he felt like just an ordinary guy, but he was also so else What would she think if she found out that he actually owned this joint—the entire estate? And that he was one of those powerful rich snobs she’d often talked about

Chase turned around and glanced at her as she lay with her eyes closed like a sleeping princess A grin of a about her, fros to that wicked body of hers, to be intoxicating Just looking at herto tell her who he really was

But then he couldn't tell her yet, could he? He should have told her before he slept with her He gri had always been an issue with hi while and he'd been defrauding her about his identity

“Mot up and stretched in the bed "I thought I s delicious" She wrapped the sheets around her covering those sweet breasts he’d enjoyed taking between his lips last night He could still visualize her beautiful round nipples underneath the sheets

“Good , beautiful," he said as cheerfully as he could

"You’re cooking eggs and bacon? To what do I owe this pleasure?”

"You know there are studies that say that not only is having breakfast the healthiest ood for your body because it’s an appetite suppressant—a high source of protein A lot of people feel fuller with scras than even cereal It’s the best breakfast to keep you going until lunchti, scrumptious and healthy"

"Is there nothing you don't know?" Abbi said, surprised at Chase’s little lecture He had to remind himself that he was just an ordinary worker, not souest lecturer e back home

Abbi looked at hily It was nice to be with someone who liked his personality, not his bank balance She didn’t know anything about his finances and that was all good And yet she’d treated hi armor

He sed hard “Actually, there’s a lot I don't know,” he said in a low controlled voice And that was the truth, like hoas he going to let her knoasn’t who she thought he was She’d made it clear she didn’t like what the upper class of society represented, not when there were sobelow the poverty line Neither did she like men who led a double life—like her ex and her own late father “There’s a lot that I’m not really sure about”

As the bacon sizzled on the stove, Chase turned down the burner He’d just finished tossing the fluffy eggs just the way she liked them from the other day

"There’s nothing like having a good rinned She then got up with the sheets wrapped around her body and went into the bathroo in the coffeethe plates ready to serve the food

Hoas he going to tell her he was going to insist they didn’t see each other again?

Abbi just couldn't believe as happening as she got ready in the bathroom

She had just experienced theher breakfast like part of a romantic couple She’d never had this done for her before And last night, the way he’d pleasured her, bringing her to the brink of erotic pleasure, over and over and over again, well, last night was just incredible

At last, Abbi knehat romance books talked about when theya woman carnal pleasure

She was officially addicted to hiotten she was there on the two- contract at the ranch resort Currently, she felt like a VIP guest
