Just One Night

by Eve Gaddy

Overview

They spent one passionate night together, a night neither could forget . . .

But it isn't until Bomb Unit Detective Alexandra "Alex" Sheridan is assigned to investigate architect Luke Morgan about the bombing of his new building that Alex is forced to face the man-and feelings-she'd run from earlier. Drawn to the charismatic man who'd soothed her grief with their shared passion, she finds herself wanting more from him.

As the case progresses, however, she questions his innocence and his feelings for her. Can she trust him, ignoring his past and the evidence pointing to his guilt? Or will she have to be satisfied with just one night?

"Luke, it was just one night, that's all," Alex insisted.

"It was more," he said.

"No."

"It could be more still."

"No." She shook her head. "I can't. Don't you get it, you're a--"

He pulled her even closer. "A suspect. And that makes me off-limits. That makes it easier for you. You don't want to believe I'm innocent, do you? Because you'd have to deal with me on an emotional level."

She couldn't let him know what he did to her, how he made her feel.

"You know what's really getting to you?" He released her hand and touched her cheek. "I know your weakness, that you're not all bad-ass investigator." His hand slid to her neck, caressing it. His voice pinned her, mesmerized her, sent tingles of sensation along her spine. "I've seen the woman beneath--the one who feels passion, the one who feels pain. And you can't stand it. You're not upset because you think I'm guilty. You're mad as hell because you know I'm innocent . . ."
