She turned away from her conversation, and she met his eyes. Her lashes drooped.She smiled with such implicit invitation, Teague took a step before he realized it. \u003cbr\u003e But no. She was on a date with a lawyer, a proper man who fit into her social class. Teague was nothing but her bodyguard.\u003cbr\u003e Then Kate did something Teague never could have anticipated. She slid her palm down her hip, smoothing the red silk until the thin material was taut against her skin. \u003cbr\u003e Kate looked...it looked as if...but no. That was impossible. She would never do as he had demanded. She would never leave off her thong. \u003cbr\u003e If she did, she would sure as hell never tell him in the middle of a party when he could do nothing about it. That would be too cruel a revenge.\u003cbr\u003e Her eyelids fluttered up; she looked at him with the sultry invitation of a temptress. And she mouthed: No panties.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Lost Hearts romantic suspense series includes:\u003cbr\u003e-- JUST THE WAY YOU ARE Enhanced\u003cbr\u003e-- ALMOST LIKE BEING IN LOVE Enhanced\u003cbr\u003e-- CLOSE TO YOU Enhanced\u003cbr\u003e-- GABRIEL'S GIFT: A Christmas Short story\u003cbr\u003eCLOSE TO YOU includes bonus material for your reading enjoyment.
