Riley’s skin came alive as Liam slid his work-roughened hands over her shoulders, pushing the dress down her arms, easing it past her hips to reveal the wisp of black satin that was her underwear.
He swore reverently and helped her step out of the dress. “Okay, I have to know. Were you wearing this when we went to Magnolia Heights?”
“I was.”
He knelt and unfastened her shoes. “If I’d known…”
“If you’d known?”
“I spent half that night mentally reciting weapons components to keep from being a giant walking hard-on.”
“Really?” Delighted, she turned to face him. “I spent the whole night thinking you weren’t affected at all.”
“If I’d known this was underneath, I don’t think I could’ve stopped myself from trying to seduce you.”
“I’d have probably let you.”
“I’m glad I didn’t know.”
