exactly what she desired? To surrender to him?
He kissed her again then lifted her up in his arms as if she were
air. Instinctively, she wrapped her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck. Being held by him felt good and desirable—even
transcendent.
“Jessie, it’s time for you to experience much more. You deserve
that. I want to make you feel like you’ve never felt before.”
She gulped. Even with the overwhelming need he’d awakened in
her, a little of corner of her mind wouldn’t surrender. “I know you think you do, but—”
He swept his lips over her neck, making her light-headed. “Angel,
stop fighting what you want. You’re too smart to refuse me. Trust me that I’m going to have you.”
As the last bit of resistance disappeared in her, she melted into his arms.

Chapter Three
Phoenix was delighted how Jessie responded to his house and
sculptures, but what thrilled him more was how her body responded
to his touches. She felt good in his arms.
His cock throbbed against his Levi’s buttoned-fly as lust rolled
into him for this amazing woman. Seeing her face flare red and her
body respond to his touch drove him crazy with hunger. She was
more woman than any he’d ever known. Smart, determined, and so
damn unbelievably sexy. He was nuts for her. A hot brew of thoughts and emotions whirled inside him, but the most steamrolling urge he
felt was to possess her.
He gazed into her green eyes, and she blinked, unable to hide her
own want from him. He devoured her sweet, soft mouth once again.
Kissing Jessie gave him more pleasure than he could’ve ever
imagined. He swept his tongue over her lips and enjoyed the taste of her.
She flushed then blinked. “What about your brother?”
“What do you mean?” Phoenix licked her neck. She shivered, and
he saw the gooseflesh that let him know he was getting to her. He
decided to tease her a bit. “You two are an item?”
“N-No. But—”
“Shh. You don’t have to lie to me. He already told me about your
secret romance. Not a word from me, but you two aren’t exclusive.
That’s not Jackson’s way.” Or mine.
“That’s odd to me. Do you Wilde brothers share women often? Is
that the only way you can get off?”
“Jessie, it’s not what you think.”

“Enlighten me.”
God, he wanted to tell her everything, but it was way too soon. A
partial truth would have to suffice. “Honestly, we’re both into you.
I’ve never felt like this with any other woman in my life, and I, for one, want to see where this takes us.” He walked toward the sofa with her in his arms. “Don’t you?”
“Phoenix, shouldn’t we be heading to the mine?” Her breathy tone
was so sexy. She would be his, only his, for tonight.
“We’ve got plenty of time, Jessie.”
She nibbled on her bottom lip. “But what if it ends in disaster?”
“It won’t, sweetheart,” he told her, pulling her in close.
He nibbled on her earlobe. She was perfect. He placed her on the
sofa in a sitting position and moved his hands down to the curve of her waist.
“Are we really doing this?” Her body was on fire, and his desire
was blistering hot.
“Yes, angel.” He used his fingers to undress her bit by bit. In no
time, he had her shirt off, her shoes, and then her jeans. Her
passionate trembling thrilled him. Her bra and panties were pale pink and made her skin look even more delicious. Her breasts were full,
and her taut nipples were evident under the fabric.
“But I’m seeing your brother.”
“We’ve covered that. Yes, you are seeing him. But we’ve shared
you. Remember, he willingly shared you with me.”
“You’ve both ruined me for other men.”
“That’s the plan. I saw how much you enjoyed being with Jackson
and me. You’ll have that again, I promise. Now, I want to have you to myself. I want more. I can tell that you do, too.”
“Yes, but—”
He placed his finger to her
