“Not at all. I’m actually having a great time, but we did promise her that we’d be on the dancefloor for just one dance.

“One more dance. This is my jam.” He started doing the Carlton Dance, and I couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

I was jolted out of my revelry when a hand fell on my shoulder. I nearly jumped out of my dress in shock from the jolt of what felt like an electric pulse going through my bare shoulder when contact was made.

I turned around, and before I could help myself, a gasp tumbled from my lips. It was the guy from the coffee shop. I honestly didn’t think I’d ever see him again. When he’d asked for my information and I declined, I thought that would be it. When I saw him at the shop again a different time, he’d let me know in no uncertain terms that he was there for me. And I was very tempted to take him up on his offer, but something held me back. I couldn’t quite put my finger on the why at the time, but now I knew.

This man was trouble.

I don’t know what it was about him. Sure he was easily one of the most gorgeous specimens I’d ever laid my eyes on. He was literally the walking embodiment of tall, dark and handsome. I’ve encountered several good-looking men in my lifetime, but this man was head and shoulders above most of them. And yet it wasn’t his looks that had me frozen to the spot and had my tongue cleaving to the roof of my mouth.

I’d been rendered speechless and immobile at once, and instead of using words like a normal person I stood there staring. It had been easier to talk to him in the coffee shop because I thought he was someone I could put to the back of my mind, but seeing him here in his obviously tailored black tuxedo, our encounter almost seemed fated. That was the part that scared me. Somehow I knew this man would have the power to do things to my heart that I’d allowed no other to. Maybe I should have run, but I remained where I stood.

“Yes?” I finally found my voice, and it came out in a raspy croak. I wanted the floor to open up on me.

“So we meet again, Frankie. I’d say this encounter was destined.”

“Is it?” I wish I could have said something more intelligent, but this man had the ability to make me feel like a little girl at a boyband concert. I might have been speechless on the outside, but I was screaming on the inside.

“Oh, absolutely, and I absolutely insist that I have this dance.”

He didn’t wait for answer before he hooked his arms around my waist and practically lifted me off my feet and twirled me away from Ian. In the back of my mind I knew he was still there, but I couldn’t tear my eyes off of Nick.

I think I spent the rest of the night in a daze as we danced until we were the only two people left on the dancefloor.

From there we’d gone to a twenty-four-hour dinner and chatted over coffee until the sun peeked through the horizon. By the time I made it home, I knew I was in love with him. My heart told me this was the man I was going to risk everything for and spend the rest of my life with. We became inseparable after that. He was my everything. My handsome knight in shining armor. I didn’t think anything could come between us…until I met his brother.

A sharp poke to my side jolted me upright in my seat.

“We’re here. Get out.”

It took me a moment for my senses to return. I must have dozed off on the way to Nick’s house. I was so exhausted from the long laborious day that once my body was cradled in the soft leather of his car seat, I could no longer fight the sleep that had been threatening to take me out.

I let out a deep yawn before getting out of his car. There was a time when Nick insisted that I wait until he opened the door for me. But this was just a subtle reminder that I would be receiving none of his hospitality.

I was surprised that he took my suitcase, but I didn’t say anything. I was too exhausted to speak which would probably just lead to an argument with him anyway.

Most of the house was cloaked in darkness. but it was just as I remembered save some minor changes here and there. Nick didn’t give me much chance to look around anyway because he headed upstairs, and he didn’t need to tell me that I was expected to follow.
