through her at the contact. She tried to focus on the true meaning of those two words, come and inside, rather than the far more wickedly exciting meaning her mind gave them. She failed miserably on all counts.
She wanted to touch more, to explore his flesh with her hands and mouth until the hunger for him subsided. She wanted to feel his hands on her, wanted to surrender to the hard-edged dominance she spotted in the deepest depths of his eyes and see exactly where he might take her. God, she never felt these viperous tugs to be so naughty with a man and certainly never battled the urge to give in so easily.
Sabrina stopped a few feet inside the foyer and started to turn. The warmth of the solid wall of muscle at her back made her freeze. His breath fanned the fine hairs on the side of her neck as he dipped his head. His voice sent curls of heat whipping through her womb before they struck her clit and her nipples.
“Why don’t you let your hair down while I’m gone, Sabrina?”
Startled by her body’s continued betrayal and his suggestion, she stepped away from him and turned quickly. “I will not.”
He shrugged as if her reaction to his request didn’t make a hill of beans to him. “Suit yourself. Come to think of it, I like it up better anyway. It shows off that pretty neck.”
Before she could think of a thing to say in response to that, his hand snaked around her waist, flattened on the small of her back, and he propelled her toward an arched doorway to their left. “You can wait in here with my sister and her husband. I’ll be right back.”
Sabrina couldn’t help but watch as he walked away. No doubt about it, the man looked as good from the back as he did from the front. Moist tugs of arousal stirred between her legs, causing her inner thighs to tingle with the desire to feel his narrow hips between them as he readied his cock to thrust inside her sodden channel.
Okay, maybe you can’t do this . Jesus, did she really lose all sensibility when she met him? What the hell happened to her strength and self-control?
“Hi, I’m Gabrielle, Brody’s middle sister.”
Sabrina snapped out of her reverie and turned to find a woman about the same age and height as she, smiling warmly. Though blonde with fairer skin, the resemblance between sister and brother couldn’t be missed. She decided the eyes spoke volumes about the genes passed down to these two members of the Holt family. Gabrielle looked at her through a set of eyes as darkly inquisitive as her brother’s. They currently danced with a secret amusement the same as Brody’s had when he opened the front door.
“Sabrina Gibson.” She shook the hand Gabrielle extended, then pulled the cloth tie binding her hair and slid it onto her wrist as a makeshift fashion accessory. Her hair fell in a loose wave around her shoulders, hiding her neck.
“We really appreciate you coming out all this way.” Gabrielle sank to her knees, finished changing the infant on the blanket spread over the rug, and stood with the baby in her arms. “And on a Saturday, too. I hope my brother is paying you extra.” She giggled as the baby twisted, then lunged for Sabrina.
Reflex more than thought made Sabrina reach for the infant. The little girl settled in Sabrina’s hold and immediately went for her hair. “Hey there.”
“Looks like her nap is over for the moment. She likes you,” Gabrielle said approvingly.
Sabrina grinned and tickled the baby’s chin. “She likes my hair.”
“So do I.” Brody’s announcement sent a fiery lace of sensations caressing through her system.
One glance his way and she realized she’d fallen right into his trap by taking down her hair.
“Do you have any kids?” Gabrielle asked, folding her arms loosely beneath her breasts as she watched Sabrina with her daughter.
“No. Not yet.” The baby chose that moment to bundle a handful of Sabrina’s hair in her tiny fist and give it a very strong tug. “All right, pretty
