One Hot Winter's Night (25 page)
For a moment, she remained motionless. Then she melted into him and put her arms around his neck, the layer of ice that had formed around her heart so many years ago finally beginning to thaw. He was right—she wasn’t going to be able to forget everything overnight, and it would be a long while before she’d be able to let herself trust him completely. But his words had touched her in a way that nothing and nobody had been able to, not even Alex, who loved her how a father should love a daughter. Heath’s declaration that he wasn’t going to stop showing her how he felt meant more to her than any flowers or presents he could ever have bought her.
“I love you,” she said when they finally drew back.
The joy that lit his features was reward enough. “I love you too, sweetheart.”
“Oh look,” she said, glancing at the window. “It’s snowing.”
They stood and walked over to look outside. Heath moved behind her and wrapped his arms around her, pulling her back against his warm body. He nuzzled her ear and kissed her neck.
“You’re supposed to be looking at the snow,” she scolded.
“I’d rather look at you.”
She slipped a hand into his hair and watched their reflection in the window with half-lidded eyes as he pressed light kisses down her neck.
She’d only meant to have a winter fling. But this Christmas story was turning out to have a very happy ending.

Vanessa Stark
Natasha Raven has a secret. Although she is the bestselling author of erotic fiction, she has never penned a sex scene. Her sister, Liza, was responsible for the sizzle in Natasha’s books – until she passed away only months ago. Now Natasha must write the scenes herself. Trouble is, she hasn’t a clue what to write and being a virgin doesn’t help. When she is invited to speak at a conference workshop titled ‘From Your Sheets to the Page,’ Natasha panics. But a suggestive wink from a young hotel staffer named Jace gives her an idea. If she can muster the confidence to have a one night stand with Jace, she just may be able to endure the workshop without feeling a total fraud. But will she go through with it? And is Jace all that he seems?
