Sweet Chemistry Read Online Free PDF

standing at the sink drinking a glass of water. He froze. The sleek muscles of her neck moved as she swallowed. He wanted to trail kisses along her taut skin. She’s your student. Remember? The door slipped out of his hand and swooshed shut behind him. Kate’s eyes met his. If looks could kill, he would’ve died right then.
    She opened her mouth and her venomous whisper paralyzed him. “What the hell are you doing here? This is a study group. For students.” Her gaze focused on the swinging door. Was she waiting for someone? Of course she was. She was waiting for Tim. Lucky bastard.
    The plastic handles of the bag started to cut into the skin of his hand. “I didn’t know you’d be here either. Angelica asked me to come tonight. She said it would be helpful if the group ran into any problems.” Why was he apologizing? He was doing his students a huge favor.
    Her murderous gaze returned. “I see you’re moving on to the next student. I suppose you’re married too.” She clutched her glass with both hands.
    How could she say something like that when it was obvious she and Tim were together? “You’re one to talk.”
    “Dr. B, there you are,” Angelica said sweetly. She looked at James, and then at Kate, and gripped James’ arm possessively. “Sorry, I should’ve shown you where you should put the drinks. You’re so nice to bring anything at all.”
    James shrugged and tried to pull out of her grasp, and only succeeded when the rest of the students came in to load their plates with the odd assortment of food. It was pandemonium. As he backed away from the swarm around the table, he scanned the room. Where had Kate gone?
    As he waited in line, James nibbled on the piece of blueberry cake on his plate, which practically called his name the moment he saw it. His mouth watered. It was soft and delicious, and melted against his tongue. He glanced at the pan and decided he would come back for another piece after the line died down.
    When James joined the study group, Tim and Kate were sitting together, whispering, and eating off the same plate. To make things worse, Tim put his hand on her knee and squeezed it.
    James forced down the last bite of blueberry cake and turned to the group. “Thank you for the food. This blueberry cake is the best thing I’ve ever tasted.”
    “I know, right? Kate can seriously cook. Not that the rest of the food isn’t delicious,” Tim added quickly. “Angelica, this seven layer dip is awesome.”
    Strike that. It was the second best thing he’d tasted. Kate still held first place. He looked at her while he licked his finger. Did she just shudder?
    “Thanks for bringing soda, Dr. B.” Angelica sat in the chair next to him and batted her eyelashes. She smiled for too long and it made his skin crawl.
    James buried his nose in his textbook, scanning through the material as the students quizzed each other, hoping she would take the hint.
    Around the edge of the book, he could block out Tim and look at Kate. Why hadn’t he taken things slower with her? If he had known he would only have one night with her, he would’ve worshiped every inch of her body, every inch of her relationship-committed body.
    James squeezed his eyes shut. He couldn’t spend the next twelve weeks pining for a taken woman.
    The pieces started to fall into place during the second week. Tim’s hand on her back, the protective stance he took when James tried to talk to her, and the way he escorted her from class. It was all the proof he needed Tim and Kate were together. He was familiar with this feeling of betrayal, but this time, she hadn’t cheated on him, she had cheated with him. Apparently when she said ‘I can’t believe I’m doing this,’ this meant cheating on Tim.
    When Kate got up to leave, James’ heart sank. Of course, Tim went with her.
    James went back to Addiction that night. He needed a distraction more than ever. He had been there every Saturday in the hopes of finding someone who
