honors before he had the chance.
    "We both know I could make you smile. Make you scream, writhe, cry, burst into a million different pieces from pleasure.” Her cheeks turned crimson with his words and damn if he didn't start to harden. “I can't wait for that last part, Sidney. Its going to be so much fun watching you come undone."
    He watched her shift in her chair, her eyes widening with his words. She looked so sweet and innocent. From the two kisses they shared he knew better than to think Sidney Clark innocent. Inside her burned a passionate fire that he couldn't wait to ignite. “No snappy comeback Ms. Clark?” he mocked.
    A look of relief crept across her face as the waitress they'd spoken to earlier stepped up to the table.
    "Saved by the bell,” he said the words not caring if the waitress heard.
    "Excuse me?” she asked.
    "Nothing,” Sidney told her. “I need something with a little kick in it tonight, Sally. What drink do you suggest?"

Chapter Four
    Sidney ordered a sex on the beach at Sally's suggestion. She didn't drink often so she had no idea what she was in for. Trenton's sexy words had her feeling a little bit frisky, feeling like she wanted to live on the edge. To her surprise, Trenton ordered an iced tea before Sally slipped away to get their drinks.
    Damn the man knew how to get her hormones up and running. Men in River City didn't talk to her like he did. It made her feel sexy and carefree. Should she let herself feel that way? In the end she'd still be the same ole Sid. The one who wanted more out of sex than just a hot time between the sheets. A small town girl who could never hold onto a man like Trenton. Hell, she didn't even know if she wanted too. They still didn't know very much about each other.
    Like he read her mind, Trenton asked, “Have you lived here long?"
    Sidney laughed. “Yeah. Twenty eight years to be exact."
    "Really,” he looked perplexed. “How do you do it?"
    "What do you mean? This is my home. I love it here.” And she did. Sure there were your downfalls, Mandy the mouth being one of them. Everyone always knew everyone else's business, secrets spread like wildfires, and there wasn't a lot to do, but it was still home.
    "I don't do the whole small town thing. Seems like the same ole thing everyday. You see the same faces and places. Your business isn't your own. People look at me like I'm a two headed monster around here. Not that I care."
    He just proved her point about him without even knowing it. No way could she let herself be with this man. All he wanted was to win his prize and be on his way. She wouldn't be any man's prize. Not in the way he looked for at least.
    "All of that is true but you aren't looking at the positives, just the negatives. I have great friends who I have known my whole life. If someone needs help, the whole town pitches in and does what they can for each other. People smile when you walk by. The grocer knows what you want the second you step up to the counter, that kind of thing. You can't beat it."
    He looked to be deep in thought for a moment. His brows creased, his eyes had a far off expression. She thought just maybe he was really thinking about what she had to say. So many people she'd met looked down at small town life. Like they were missing so much because of the lives they chose to live. For some reason she didn't want Trenton to feel that way. His opinion mattered to her.
    "That might be the kind of life you enjoy, Sugar, but it isn't for me."
    He said the words, but they didn't ring true to her ears. Wishful thinking, Sid. You have the hot's for him so your looking for hope where there isn't any. She felt a connection with him that she didn't understand. Part of it was physical, but deep in her soul she knew there was more. What, she didn't know. Her heart wanted to explore the connection, but her brain thought better of it.
    "Whatever you say, Stone. Since this isn't the life for you why don't you
