He grinned, which had her pulse racing. “I can set my own hours, I don’t have a boss breathing down my neck and the money is good. All in all, not too bad. Every job has its drawbacks though.”

Roni knew too well. “Do you work long hours?”

“As much as any business owner does, I suppose.” He looked over her shoulder, then stood. “Do you like chocolate?”

“It’s un-American not to,” she replied, using his earlier words.

He winked. “Be right back.”

When he walked away, Roni was tempted to turn and watch him move. She stifled the urge and took a sip of her diet cola. She needed to cool down. It was dinner at a fast-food restaurant, nothing more.

“Dessert for two,” he said as he set a banana split on the table between them, two spoons sticking out of the vanilla ice cream. “Dig in.”

“Two?”

“I’m not eating it all by myself. You’re helping.”

Roni eyed the hot fudge drizzling down the sides of the rapidly melting dollops with longing. “No, I really can’t afford the calories.”

His gaze traveled to her chest and back up again. “A few bites of ice cream won’t hurt. Trust me.”

Roni grabbed the spoon and scooped up a large helping. “Who the hell am I kidding? I can’t turn down chocolate!”

He pulled out the other spoon. “That’s the spirit.”

Roni was mesmerized when a spoonful of whipped cream disappeared between his lips. She wondered what it’d taste like if she slathered him with whipped cream and went to town. Delicious no doubt.

“You really should enjoy the luxuries of life more often, Dr. Smart. It keeps a person sane.”

She forced herself to stop visually molesting the man and scooped up another heaping spoonful. She moaned as the sweet dessert hit her tongue. “Yes, I see what you mean.”

When they were finished, Roni swiped a napkin over her lips and sat back, totally stuffed. “There really is something special about hot fudge sauce and ice cream.”

Jake leaned over the table and pulled her toward him. With their faces only inches apart she could feel his breath on her cheeks. “There’s something special about you.”

Her heartbeat sped up. “You think?”

He nodded. “Mmm, definitely. I bet you taste even better than hot fudge, too,” he growled.

“Nothing tastes better than hot fudge. It’s impossible.”

“How about we go back to my house so I can see for myself?”

He looked her over, his eyes stopping for a heart-pounding few seconds on her heaving breasts where his jacket had parted, before meeting her gaze again.

“You don’t even know me,” she whispered.

“I know I’ve never felt so attracted to a woman. Tell me you’re feeling this chemistry, too, baby.”

Roni couldn’t seem to find her breath, she was panting so hard. Her body responded instantly to his seductive words. She wanted to tell him, yes. It would be so easy to yank him to his feet and drag him home where she could be alone with him. But she couldn’t seem to form the words. For the first time in her life, Roni was tongue-tied.

“Say something,” Jake ordered. “Either tell me to kiss ass or come home with me.”

With his face still so close, Roni could see his eyes darken and a muscle in his strong, hard jaw jump. It was time to make the fantasy real. “Yes.”

“Yes?”

“I’ll come home with you.”
