“Shane, what’s with that attitude?” Gary said, his face all stern.

Sandy quickly reached out and tugged gently at Shane’s shirt.

Shane frowned and glanced down. He saw her small, pink hand pressing against his waist. Her touch was soft—so different from her usual icy demeanor. He’d been holding her last night, and he couldn’t get enough of it. Her hands were so much warmer than her cold, stubborn heart.

The sensation made him pause, and his slim waist tingled. He reached back, half-tempted to catch her hand.

But Sandy immediately let go, keeping her composure. She wasn’t here to flirt.

His touch was warm, his fingers gentle but firm, and suddenly she was caught.
