Free Back to Me without you (Sibling Love Book 1) by Christie Mack

Collins. Given your line of work, I bet you practically live at the hospital.”
    Sam raised one eyebrow, lifting his glass of beer. “Is that a challenge?”
    “Maybe. Are you up for it?”
    Something told him he wasn’t going to stand in the way of Abby proving a point. She seemed a lot stronger than she looked. “Let me get this straight. Are you saying you can be more fun than me?” Abby nodded. “Fine then. I’m willing to take on the challenge if you are.” Sam wasn’t one to back down from a bet.
    “Of course I am. I’m not about to back down now,” Abby said, tossing her hair over one shoulder. She had lovely hair. It was thick, glossy and chocolate brown. For a moment, Sam caught himself imagining how soft it would feel if he ran his fingers through it.
    He extended one hand towards her and gave her a smile. “It’s a bet then,” he said as he and Abby shook hands.

    Later that night after making it a challenge to see who could be more fun, Abby and Sam ended the night standing outside his hotel room.
    “So did I prove to you just how much fun I can be?” Sam asked Abby with a grin.
    “The night isn’t over yet. I’m not done proving to you how much fun I am,” Abby challenged him with a cheeky smile on her face.
    “Oh really?” Sam returned the challenge as the distance between them grew smaller and smaller. “I thought you’d be wanting to get home.”
    Abby didn’t know if it was the alcohol talking but suddenly she craved for a kiss by Sam. The temptation was too sweet and too hard to ignore. Should she pass up the opportunity to kiss a gorgeous man no matter how much he might piss her off?
    “I’m not ready to go home yet. I’m having more fun with you than I realised I would. Besides, I’m in no shape to go home by myself. I thought I would just sleep in your room.”
    “Oh, you’re offering my place to yourself. That’s nice. How do you know I would say yes to letting you spend the night in my room? I might have other ideas.”
    “You will,” Abby said.
    “And you’re so sure of that.”
    Abby nodded her head. “You like me. And I am a lot of fun. You want to see where this night is going to go just like I do. Besides, I figure that you’re a good man. A gentleman. You wouldn’t turn your back on me in my state.” And before Abby even understood what she was saying or doing, she kissed Sam.
    “So are you going to let me in or do I have to do it myself?” she asked him one more time, biting her bottom lip as she slipped her hand around his waist to the back pocket of his pants, retrieving his hotel room card.
    She opened the door and let them both inside.
    Sam pushed her against the back of the closed door as she hooked her legs around his waist and he kissed her more passionately on the lips. His mouth then trailed down her neck as his growing erection within his pants pushed against Abby’s thighs, desperate for the attention it craved.
    “I want you,” Abby whispered softly.
    Abby’s words were enough to send shivers through her body as Sam carried her gently to the bed, ready to find out just how much fun she could have tonight.

    The following morning Abby rolled over onto her side. She slowly opened her eyes to the early morning sun that streamed in through the bedroom window. Being a bit cold, she pulled the comforter up around her body before she noticed something was off. This was not the room she was staying at in her sibling’s house and why wasn’t she wearing any clothes? She struggled to remember what happened last night, but the details were fuzzy. She covered her face with her hands. Oh shit! What did she drink and eat? Her breath smelled horrible.
    Reluctantly, she turned to the other side of the bed. Thank goodness it was empty. Was it possible she had gotten so wasted last night that Sam had made her sleep in his bed alone? She hoped so. Nothing else made sense. Drunk or not, Abby didn’t think she would sleep with Sam.
    Lost in her thoughts,
