Melissa McClone - The Man Behind The Mask - How to Melt a Frozen Heart / The Man Behind the Pinstripes / Falling for Mr Mysterious

“Whoo, that’s cold,” she said, to explain the shiver. She suspected he was not fooled. She pushed the shake back across the table at him. “Not to mention surprisingly good.”

Deliberately, his eyes still locked on her, he took the straw. He was caressing the damn thing with his lips.

It was the closest she’d ever been to being kissed without actually being kissed. What he was doing with that straw was darn near X-rated. She shoved her milkshake across to him.

“Want to try mine?” she asked softly. She was encouraging him!

“What else do you want to do?” he asked softly. “To live dangerously. Before the blood vessel in your head lets go.”
