that has aroused my hormones and made my body crave a taste. God he smells edible.
                  “Scusa?”  He chuckles openly, his eyes dancing with mutual interest.
                  Oh God.  I said that out loud.   “God, I’m so sorry.”  I gracefully drop to my knees, gathering the contents of my bag.  “I should have been watching where I was going.”
                  “No problem.”  He squats in front of me, handing me my hairbrush.  “Are you alright?”  His words trip off his tongue with an alluring accent.
                  Our fingers connect as I take the brush from his strong masculine hands.  “I’m fine, more embarrassed than anything else.” A warmth spreads through my body, pooling between my legs as his eyes take me in.  “I’m Faith by the way.”
                  My eyes travel up his lethal body as he stands, stretching to full height.  Christ, he has to be more than six feet tall.   I straighten, feeling self-conscious in front of his perfection.
                  “Tony,” he nods, flashing me a sexy smile.  Before I can grab my bag, his strong fingers wrap around the handle, “come on, I’ll help you out.”
                  “Ah, hang on.”  My eyes roam the floor searching for my coffee mug.  Spotting it, I walk over to the wall, bending to grab it off the floor.  My skin warms, I can feel his eyes on my ass.  Snatching the mug off the floor I turn, grinning as my eyebrows wiggle with delight. “Got it.”
                  “Let me buy you a new cup?  The least I can do.”  His beautiful eyes shimmer with promise, as his sinfully full lips slowly curl into a sexy grin.
                  “Screw top.” I wiggle my eyebrows, “it’s like an adult tippy cup for coffee.”
                  Disappointment flickers over his gorgeous face.  “Another time then?”
                  “Um - sure.”  My skin begins to tingle under his heated gaze.  Did he just ask me out?
                  He turns, ushering me toward the stairs.  We both stop in the middle of the staircase, reaching for my car keys at the same time.  His large, warm hand engulfs mine.  My nerve endings flare to life, his skin is rough in all the right places.  His fingers flex gently into my hand, sending jolts of pleasure raging through my system.  “Allow me.”  He cocks his head to the side, nodding toward our hands.
                  “Oh.  Okay.”  I release my keys, and with a finger twirl they disappear in the palm of his hand.  Lucky keys.
                  He unlocks the security door, holding it open like a true gentleman.  “Thank you.”  I nod, throwing him a sweet smile.  What the hell is wrong with me?
                  His dark eyes intently roam the lot, “which one is you?”
                  I point to the dark grey Mazda, CX-3.  “There.”
                  We silently walk toward my SUV, the air between us crackling with possibility.  Out of nowhere, tires straining against the cement, one of the matching black Lexus sedans from last night pulls into a spot on the other side of the lot.
                  “Stupido,” Tony mumbles under his breath.  I don’t think I was supposed to hear that.
                  My eyes watch intently, wondering who’s driving the sedan.  His wife?
                  The driver’s side door fly’s open, and out steps a good looking man with a young baby face and bow-lips. Air silently escapes my lungs that I didn’t even know I was holding.  Not his wife, I inwardly grin. 
                  Baby face rips his sunglass off, his eyes zeroing in on Tony and me.  “You on your way out Tony?”  His thick Italian accent stands out.
                  “Yeah Paulie, but stay, I need
