have been honored to take a girl’s virginity but Jamie looked offended, if anything.
    “I didn’t plan this. You’ve made me feel things I’ve never felt before, and well, life’s too short not to act on them.” If this was nothing more than a fling she saw no need to go into details of her past.
    “You want sex lessons?” He arched an eyebrow at her. Okay he wasn’t taking her seriously but at least he hadn’t ditched her on the side of the road.
    She tutted. “I wouldn’t exactly put it like that. I’m not even sure you’re qualified to teach.”
    “Don’t you worry. I have enough references to paper my apartment with.” He wiggled an eyebrow right back at her.
    Her laugh broke the build-up of tension inside the car. “I just didn’t want you to think I was trying to trick you or something. I’m being honest with you here.”
    “I appreciate it and I’ll be up front with you in return. I’m not looking for a girlfriend. Virgin or not, you won’t change my mind about that.” He started the engine again. “Now, my place or yours?”
    He left the decision entirely in her hands, on her conscience. “Yours.”

Chapter Six
    Jen had half-expected some old crumbling mansion in the country. Instead, they came to a halt outside a modern apartment block close to the city center. It shouldn’t have come as a surprise, given his choice of transport was a non-descript silver hatchback and not some flashy sports car. His modest lifestyle only made him all the more endearing. The heir to Kelsey’s Department Store could surely afford a more luxurious standard of living if he chose—unless the store was in more trouble than she could have imagined. She preferred to think material goods weren’t important to him. It put them on a more even footing.
    When he turned off the engine, a shiver of anticipation ran up her spine. “Nice place,” she said because ‘What do we do now?’ would’ve sounded even more lame.
    “All bought and paid for with my own hard earned cash.” He puffed out his chest with the same pride she saw every time he made his mark in the store.
    “I hope I can do the same one day.” The money she earned caring for Lee had barely covered her travel expenses, so she’d never been able to save for a place of her own. They’d known Lee was never going to survive the cancer either, so living together as a married couple had never been an option. The most she could hope for now was enough money to move out from her family’s constant scrutiny.
    “I’m sure you can do anything you put your mind to, Jen. You seem like a very determined woman.” Jamie unclipped his seat belt and reached over to do the same to hers. Her breath hitched as he entered her personal space, filling her lungs with the spicy scent of horny male.
    He followed the trail of the belt across her breast with his hand, the fleeting touch firming her nipples into telltale points against her shirt. He brushed his thumb across one nub and sent a shot of arousal hurtling south to pool between her thighs. She mashed her head back into the headrest and crossed her legs.
    “Relax.” With his mouth pressed to hers, he started a slow kiss that put her at ease. There was no pressure, no rush as he moved his hands from the danger zone to cup her face. Making out in the car didn’t seem quite as scary as going into his apartment, so she let go and simply enjoyed the kiss. They moved their bodies closer together, and Jen tasted a little bit more of him every time she met his tongue with hers. Their breath slowly steamed up the windows in their passion fueled perusal of each other’s lips.
    Jamie slipped a hand between her legs, inching slowly under her skirt. She freaked, clenching her thigh muscles together to halt his progress.
    “Do you want me to stop?” His dilated pupils were almost black with desire as he checked for confirmation.
    She took a breather, away from his intoxicating lips, to think about it. As she urged her
