the bottle and took another swallow.
    He took advantage of the opportunity to check her out again. The other bridesmaids looked okay in their dresses, but Vivian looked amazing. He especially liked the split in the side of the skirt that had tantalized him with glimpses of her thigh all day.
    “I bet the other bridesmaids were pissed when they heard you’d be maid of honor,” he said admiringly.
    “You don’t need to butter me up, James.”
    “Don’t I?”
    “Nope.” Her gaze held his, and he was pretty damn sure that he wasn’t imagining the invitation in hers.
    Well, happy birthday, Mr. President.
    “In that case, maybe it’s time for me to bring out the big guns.” He reached into the inside pocket of his jacket and pulled out the joint he’d rolled earlier.
    “I see you’ve really committed to the whole rock-and-roll lifestyle.”
    “You got a problem with that?”
    She gave him a slow, steady head-to-toe appraisal. “Not in the least.”
    He closed his eyes for a brief moment of thanks. Sometimes, out of nowhere, the universe delivered a perfect moment. He was going to grab this one with both hands and run with it.

    V IVIAN WASN ’ T SURE if the limo was her idea or Seth’s. It was all a bit hazy in her mind after that first kiss on the balcony. One minute they’d been talking, then she’d been pressed up against the building with Seth’s body against hers and his tongue in her mouth.
    And holy hell, could the man kiss.
    He’d stormed her mouth and her body as though he owned her, and she’d been wet and desperate for him within seconds. The feel of him, hard and demanding against her belly, had her thinking of getting naked and horizontal pronto. Then he’d broken their kiss, taken her hand and led her to the stairs.
    Now, he slipped the driver some money to take a walk. She shivered with anticipation as Seth opened the door and waved her inside.
    “Madam.”
    One word, but so loaded with promise she had to squeeze her thighs together to contain her excitement. She crawled onto the backseat, kneeling as he got in and closed the door.
    “You’ll have to unzip me.” She offered him her back. It didn’t take three years of design school to know that precious little action would happen while she wore a figure-hugging, floor-length sheath.
    “Totally on it,” Seth said, his hands on her zipper.
    She felt the fabric loosen, and she wriggled until she’d pulled it off and draped it over the driver’s seat.
    “Oh, man.” His gaze was avid as he stared at her cream-colored balconette bra and matching panties.
    She loved the slightly dazed look in his eyes.
    “Brace yourself, I’m climbing on board,” she said, slipping a leg over his body and straddling him.
    “Permission to board granted. And anything else that strikes your fancy,” he said. “And speaking of fancy...”
    She bit back a moan as his hands slid onto her satin-covered ass, curving his hands to the shape of her body as he pulled her close. They kissed, his hands massaging as she ground against his erection. He smoothed one hand up to the clasp of her bra, and seconds later she felt it slacken around her rib cage.
    “You’ve done that before,” she murmured as she slipped the straps down her arms.
    “I was a Cub Scout.” He swore under his breath as her bra fell from her breasts. “Vivian, seriously. Could you be any freakin’ hotter?”
    She didn’t get a chance to respond because he leaned forward and pulled one of her nipples into his mouth and she was lost.
    Utterly gone.
    Never had a man’s mouth on her breasts felt so good. Hot and wet, his teeth and tongue teasing her. She gripped handfuls of his hair and held him in place, riding the waves of desire sweeping through her. Then he slid a hand onto her belly and beneath her panties and took her to a whole new level.
    The feel of his clever fingers between her thighs was crazy-making, the pressure both too much and not enough. She started to pant, and
