Brad.”
He let loose and pounded into her ass.
“Yes, harder, God that’s good,” Ali cried out, raising her butt into each stroke.
The cuffs jangled, and the bed frame squeaked. Brad reached around her hip and found her clit. She bit into the pillow, and stars danced behind her eyelids as she burst into a million pieces. Brad thrust one last time, held her firmly against his groin and came with a shout.
Chapter Five
“This is fucked up,” Brad said, running a hand through his hair and staring out the window.
“Yeah, finding a smokin’ hot woman you like as much out of the sack as in really sucks. Tough break, man,” Tom, his best friend since grade school, said with a chuckle.
“She’s leaving in five days.”
“She lives downstate, not across the country. You two can keep in touch, hook up for fun when you can, sounds to me like it’s your dream situation.”
Brad fixed him with a stern frown. “That used to be what I wanted, Tom, but not now, not with her. Alicia’s really special. I realize it’s only been three weeks, but I’ve never felt this way about any woman, ever.”
“Oh, shit, you’ve got it bad. I thought you said she’s a no-strings kinda gal.”
Despite his casual words, Brad didn’t miss the fact that Tom was staring at him with obvious curiosity.
“I told her I wasn’t in the market for a serious relationship either, and meant it, in the beginning.”
“Maybe she’s changed her mind about what she wants, too?”
“I have no clue,” Brad admitted, a bit too loudly. He started to pace.
“Here’s a wacky idea—how about talking to her about it?”
“If it sounds crazy in my own head, odds are high she’ll shoot me down. Then, I’ll lose her all together.”
“Never pegged you as a chicken shit.”
Leave it to Tom to cut straight to the quick of things. He was right. Brad was scared. It made no sense, but Brad was pretty damn sure he was falling in love with Alicia Lawrence.
“Go to hell,” Brad muttered.
“Nice comeback, dude,” Tom said, walking over to the fridge and pulling out two sodas. “I gotta admit, though, I’m really bummed at the change in plans.”
“What are you talking about?”
“If you’re thinking about going all serious with her, are you sure it’s a good idea?” Tom popped open his can and took a healthy drink.
“Yeah, I am. After the subject came up for discussion, she was out-of-control horny for hours. I almost had to crawl out to my truck when we were done.” Brad’s pulse sped up, as it always did, when Alicia was on his mind. Making love with her was incredible, but equally so was simply spending time with her, talking, laughing, just being together. He’d never been happier.
“Leave it to you to work a threesome into a conversation.” Tom chuckled and shook his head.
“I wanna be the one who gives Alicia all of her fantasies from now on, Tom.”
“Crap, Brad, keep the sappy shit to a minimum. You’re freakin’ me out.”

“It’s so sweet of you to have me over for lunch,” Aunt Dottie said while dabbing her lips with the napkin. “I can’t believe your vacation is almost over.”
“Neither can I,” Alicia admitted with a sigh.
“You’ve been having a good time, yes? Mavis was telling me she’s seen you and Brad together around town, and the other morning, very early, I was on my way to the market and noticed your car in his driveway.” Aunt Dottie winked.
Heat flamed in Alicia’s cheeks, but she was extremely relieved Aunt Dottie brought up Brad. She was a mess over her feelings for him, and Ali hoped talking things out might help.
“I really, really like him.” Ali was relatively certain a different L- word would be more appropriate, but how stupid was she to fall so hard, so fast? It was a total rush to be with a man who accepted and encouraged her true nature, but that sure didn’t automatically equate to long-term success.
“That’s marvelous, dear.” Aunt
