Free Second Chance Love (Heaven Hill Book 6) by Laramie Briscoe Page B

on one hand the number of times she’d made out since she was a teenager. Rooster had her throwing all her defenses out the door and giving in to everything she wanted with him. Her fingers fought for purchase against his clothes as he turned her around, picked her up, and sat her on the desk. She wanted to feel his skin with hers, know that this was real and that she wouldn’t wake up in an empty bed. That had happened too many times for her to admit to anyone but herself. She’d missed him.
    “Damn,” Rooster mumbled near her ear as he spread her thighs so that his body had room there, as he leaned her back on the desk so that he had room to work. “I don’t know what it is about us, but I feel like a horny teenager every time I kiss you.”
    The feeling was mutual, definitely mutual. This was exactly how things had been years ago. As soon as he touched her, she lost her head and she was willing to say yes to anything he asked. It was nice to transport herself back to that time when there weren’t so many responsibilities. Fisting his uniform shirt in her hands, she tugged, slipping the edges past the belt that held his pants up and shoving her fingers underneath. Her fingertips connected with the hot skin of his abdomen, and she raked her nails there, wanting him to wear a badge of possession just like she did.
    His hand felt impossibly large against her as he trailed it down her back and stopped at the curve of her ass, pulling her back against him. Her fingers fumbled with the buttons of his shirt, trying desperately to get to the rest of the skin beneath.
    “Wait, wait.” He pulled back from her, picking her up and sitting her back in her seat. He quickly walked around the edge of the desk and had a seat in the chair facing her.
    She had no idea what had happened, but when the door to the office opened, she was thankful he’d had the presence of mind to be listening. Liam stood there, asking a ton of questions. For the life of her, she couldn’t tell you anything he asked or said, and when he left, her glazed expression shifted to Rooster. “What the hell did he just say?”
    “I have no idea,” he laughed.
    She joined in, happy that he’d had the same reaction.
    “So.” He cleared his throat and stood up, pushing the tail of his shirt back into his pants. “You wanna hang out tonight?”
    If they weren’t careful, they were both going to get burned, and she knew it. What if this didn’t work out? It would kill her and she wasn’t sure if she could come back from it a second time. On the other hand, she’d felt nothing in the way of passion and romance for such a long time that she was willing to take a chance on it. “Sure. My place or yours?”
    He thought for a moment. “Let me come get you.”
    “Sounds good. What should I wear?”
    A lazy smile spread across his face. “I’ll be on the bike, but bring a change of clothes, just in case.”
    Before he could ask why, he was gone. Did he want her to bring a change of clothes in case she stayed the night at his house? Because he planned on doing something that she’d have to change for? She could kill him for leaving the way he always did. He never let her ask questions and it drove her nuts on one hand. On the other, it was exactly what she needed, because that meant she never had a chance to second guess things.

    Rooster was on a mission as he left the office. “Hey, Tyler, is Cash here today?”
    “He’s out back. He had an unfortunate mishap with some brake fluid,” Tyler chuckled. “He’s washin’ up.”
    Rooster shook his head. He had a feeling that Tyler had been in on the unfortunate mishap. They were constantly doing things to one another. The way Tyler treated the kids that hung around with them made him sad. He’d heard the problems that Tyler and Meredith were having in the baby department, and he knew the two of them would make the best set of parents ever. “Thanks.”
    Going around the back, Rooster saw Cash trying
