the subject seemed like the smart thing to do. “So, are you excited about your test drive tomorrow?”
    He chuckled—a deep, sensual sound that seemed to flow like silk from his delicious mouth. When his breath tickled her injured ear, she closed her eyes. The subtle heat eased the sting.
    “More nervous than anything.”
    “Why?”
    His body tensed. “I watched my father die in a car crash back home.”
    She sucked in a sharp breath and opened her eyes. “Oh, my God. I’m so sorry.”
    “It’s okay. You didn’t know.”
    “Was he a racer?”
    He smiled broad and proud. “One of the best. Well, the bleeding has stopped.”
    “What?” She stared up at him, confused by his last words.
    “Your ear. It stopped bleeding,” he said with a crooked smile. “You have a little tear, but you’ll be happy to know you won’t be a one-earring wearing woman.”
    “That’s…good.” That’s good? Ugh. I’m such an idiot . A few inches in separation from this big, sexy man left her brainless.
    He cupped her shoulder. She glanced at his hand. It was large enough to do harm if he wanted, yet smooth enough to create heaven as well. Jesus. I’m acting like a nervous teenager . “I…um…why did you come down here?”
    Ty’s smile was delicious. “I heard the music and had to investigate. I’m glad I did. You put on a great show.”
    “When did you leave the tavern?”
    “After you. I’m not much of a partier.”
    She stared down at his boots, unable to look him in the eyes. Knowing he wasn’t a partier pleased her, considering she always had to babysit Pop and Bobby.
    His hand appeared in her line of vision. “Dance with me?”
    “An Old Fashioned Love Song” played in the background. “To this?” She giggled, thinking he must be joking. “It’s not a slow song.”
    “Why not? I’ll dance with you any day or night, even to this shitty song, sweet Eileen.” His playful smile made her ache to kiss him hard.
    The way he said her name with that sexy accent made her skin tingle, too. “Okay.” An instant connection washed through her the moment their hands connected. He reached round and pulled her body close, like he had every right to. Without thought, she drifted into his embrace. Pressing her cheek to his chest felt so natural. Following his smooth guidance, she closed her eyes and exhaled.
    It didn’t matter the song wasn’t a slow one. He had a way about him she couldn’t ignore. Everything he did was mesmerizing, calming, and maybe a little protective, too.
    All negative thoughts of Bobby faded away, and just the two of them were there, in the garage, holding each other. After a while, she glanced up and smiled. “I can’t remember when I danced last. He never—”
    “Shhh…leave him out of this,” Ty whispered. This time, when he leaned in to kiss her, she didn’t shy away. His lips brushed hers, and an instant, needy ache pooled between her thighs. Eileen moaned and allowed herself to be enveloped in his undeniable passion. Never before had a man made her feel so hot from a single kiss.
    Entranced, she hugged his neck, pulling him closer. Maybe pain fueled her desires, or maybe she just needed to feel treasured. Either way, she clung to him like a lifeline.
    He groaned and thrust his hips forward, giving her a taste of his erection.
    She had never been a bold woman…had never acted on impulse. But tonight was different. Bobby had cheated on her, embarrassed and hurt her beyond compare. At this moment, Tyrone Ellis made her feel desirable. Instinct made her reach between them and caress his hard cock.
    They both panted in unison.
    “Is this what you need?” he murmured.
    Stunned with herself, she pulled back and stepped away. What had she done? He must think she was easy. “I can’t. I… Do you feel sorry for me? Is that why you came down here?”
    He seemed shocked and maybe a little hurt. The urge to throw herself at him was strong, but she was determined to hold back.
    “I’d
