bath.” “Darling, we can do whatever you want to do.” He pulled her into his lap. “As long as we’re touching or connected in some way I’m satisfied.” “What took you so long to show me this side?” She pushed the hair from his eyes. “I really like it.” “I’m sorry. I thought I explained that last night.” “Not that I’m complaining. I’m glad we got to know one another a bit before we slept together. It made last night mean more.” “I agree.” He’d had several casual flings through the years and they all ended the same way. Nothing ever lasted because no one understood him the way Jacqueline had. “You get me. No one’s ever taken the time to get to know me.” “I don’t think you’ve ever let them get close enough.” “You’re very perceptive.” Building a career had always been more important than a love life. The only women he associated with were students and because he wouldn’t date them, that left his possibilities very limited. There were a few colleagues he had gotten involved with, but those relationships could be more complicated than dating a co-ed. “You struggled with your feelings for me,” she said. That was an understatement. Never in all of his years of teaching had any student ever tempted him or made him second guess himself the way she had. “After your confession at dinner last night, I know you don’t let people in that easily. I just want you to know I won’t hurt you. I wouldn’t have agreed to come here with you if I didn’t think there would be more than this weekend. I want to see where this goes.” “Good.” He held her close to him and kissed the top of her head appreciating her confession. “Because now that I’ve opened up to you, I don’t plan on ever letting you go.” “Can we come back here?” She shifted in his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck and cuddled into his chest. “Whenever you want.” He raised her chin. “I’ll give you whatever you want.” “I want you, Marcus. In every way you can give me.” “You have all of me. I think you always have.” “We should celebrate our first time by coming back here every year. Our special anniversary.” “I don’t know if I can wait a whole year to fulfill my fantasy,” he growled. “Which fantasy would that be?” “The one where the dominating professor takes the sexy graduate student across his desk.” His cock jumped back to life just thinking about it. Oh, the possibilities. “Professor, we don’t need an inn to make that fantasy a reality.” She nipped at his bottom lip. “I’ll play that one out anytime you want.” “Let’s eat and take that bath now.” “What’s the rush?” she asked. “I think Logan has a study we can borrow.” He winked. “It’s not my desk but it’ll do.” “What are we waiting for?” She pressed her lips to his. “Let’s play.”

Chapter One It was a cool autumn afternoon as Elyse Clapton left the New York City limits behind her. She glanced in her rearview mirror and realized she wouldn’t miss a thing. For the past four years she worked hard putting everything she had into making Santiago’s Grill a success. Fresh out of one of the most prestigious culinary schools in Manhattan, she allowed her boyfriend to talk her into becoming the head chef at his local restaurant. Philip invested a huge amount of money into Santiago’s but had no idea what to do with it. While Elyse worked at making it one of the trendiest spots in the city, he worked at getting into the panties of every girl who set foot in the restaurant. Elyse finally wised up and ended their relationship. She also resigned as executive chef. On the verge of a breakdown, her family advised her to head to the country for some much needed rest and relaxation. Maybe a few weeks in the little
