His mouth curved into a slow smile of masculine anticipation. “Be my guest. Take me any way you want.”

He rolled onto his back, then helped her as she straddled him. She reached between them to guide him inside as she lowered herself onto his arousal.

He filled all of her. She felt her body clench around him as he flexed within her.

“You set the pace,” he said with a groan. “I don’t need much to make me happy.”

She shifted to find the most erotically comfortable position. Her body clenched again.

“This is good,” she whispered and closed her eyes.

Slowly, she began to move. The up-and-down rhythm felt awkward at first, but she quickly found a pace that made her nerve endings quiver. She moved a little faster, then faster still.

She opened her eyes and saw him watching her.

“Come for me,” he whispered as he slipped his hand between them and rubbed her swollen center.

Every muscle in her body tensed as need built up. He rubbed a little harder, making the circling motion tighter. It was all that she needed to lose herself. Spasms of pure release claimed her as her orgasm swept through her. She continued to move, riding him, calling out her pleasure.

Up and down, up and down, claiming him, her body contracting again and again.

He grabbed her hips and began to control the rhythm. She stretched out her arms and fell forward so she could keep moving and still support herself.

This angle was even better, she thought in amazement as her release went on. He continued to hold on to her hips until he suddenly squeezed as he held her still. Only he moved. Once, twice and then he groaned.

She opened her eyes and watched as his features tightened. Pleasure pulled his mouth straight. His breath caught. He groaned again and opened his eyes. They both smiled.

“Not bad,” she said. “The whole on-top thing was very nice.”

“Yes, I liked it, too.” His smile widened into a grin, then he laughed. “We should do this again some time.”

“I think I’d like that.”

He wrapped his arms around her and gently rolled her on to her side. They moved arms and legs so they were facing each other. Cal pulled the covers over them, then touched her face.

“You okay?”

“I feel as if every cell in my body just went to a really great party.”

“Good.”

“And you?” she asked.

“The same. I was kind of sweating it there at the end. I didn’t know how long I could hold out.”

“You did great.”

“Another two seconds and I would have lost it.”

She took his hand in hers and pulled it to her chest. “That would have been okay.”

“Not if I’d come first. That would have left you hanging.”

“I trust that you would have taken care of things in another way,” she told him. “Besides, there’s something exciting about a man being so aroused, he loses control. It’s very sexy.”

“You’re very sexy.”

She stared into his dark eyes and knew that she hadn’t been wrong before. She did love him. Maybe working together had given birth to new feelings, or maybe it had simply stirred up something that had always been there.

Whichever it was, it had taken seeing his emotional sacrifice with Lindsey for her to realize how she really felt.

Now what?

The phone rang. Cal rolled over and grabbed it.

“Hello?”

He listened for a second. “Okay. I’ll tell her. Yeah. Not long. Okay. Bye.”

He hung up and looked at her. “Talk about timing. Your family just arrived at your house. Dani is there, playing hostess.”

“What? But they’re early by a day! They weren’t coming until tomorrow.” She sat up and fought panic. “I’m not ready to see my parents. I was going to use tonight and tomorrow morning to brace myself.”

“I don’t know what to tell you. They’re here now.” He leaned over and kissed her bare shoulder. “At least they didn’t get here fifteen minutes earlier. That would have been a real drag.”

PENNY ARRIVED HOME to complete chaos.

“Penny!” her mother cried as she walked into the house. “I know, I know. We’re early. But we were sitting at breakfast this morning thinking there was nothing we would rather do today than drive over to Seattle. The hotel had rooms and your sisters were eager to make the drive, so here we are.”

Before Penny could respond, her mother, a petite woman with curly dark red hair and blue eyes, covered her mouth with her hands. “Oh, look at you. You’re showing! My baby’s having a baby.”

Penny stepped into her mother’s embrace. “Hi, Mom.”

“Joe! Joe, get out here. Penny’s home.”

Her father walked toward them and swept them up in his arms. “Hey, kid. How’s it going?”

“Good, Dad.”

Emily and Julie, Penny’s sisters, hurried out of the kitchen, their children running after them.

“Penny!”

Dani came out last, holding a bottle of water in one hand and a bowl of pretzels in the other. “I managed to get them fed and watered,” she said. “I’ll head out now. I have an appointment downtown.”

“Don’t go,” Fay, Penny’s mother, said. “We’ve put you out enough. We really have to get settled in our hotel.” She cupped Penny’s face. “It’s so good to see you. You’re happy. It’s right there in your eyes.”
