She had to smile at that. Nice to know it had been staggering on both sides.

A part of her had prepared to be kicked out. Maybe hoped she would be—it was safer that way. Not all men liked a woman hanging around afterward. Finding out Matt didn’t fall in that category thrilled her. Dangerously.

“What if we just talk?”

Where had that come from? She never stayed.

She nearly took it back, but her soul ached, and Matt inexplicably salved it. Morning was soon enough to escape. For now, she wanted one whole night of fantasy, where nothing mattered but being with a man who liked her and wanted her around.

His lips curved up against her temple. “A continuation of our speed date?”

The chilly palazzo air raised goose bumps on her arms. “Well, I’m not sure how we could find any more levels of compatibility. But okay.”

He laughed. “Yeah, we gel. At least in bed, which is fantastic. It’s been a while.”

“Really? How long?”

Rolling her gently to the side, he pulled the covers free and nestled her back in his arms underneath them, like he’d read her mind. “A year and a half. Or so.”

Oh, God. “Are you like, religious or something? Did I make you break vows?”

“No.” He was quiet for a long time. “That’s when my wife died.”

Something hot exploded in her chest. His pain—she’d seen it, knew it was there, but never would have guessed its roots went so deep.
