Excerpt
Brodie looked down at the kitten as it started licking his thumb, its rough tongue rasping over his skin.
"What's its name?" Brodie managed to keep his voice even. His pull to this woman was something else. He came on the job to make a few extra bucks before his big fight on Saturday, and hopefully, it was one of his last construction gigs. Boxing with his life, and working all day interfered with his training regimen.
It also meant he didn't really have time for a distraction like Tabitha, but he was finding her damn near impossible to resist.
"Max, or more likely, Fur-Ball of Destruction." She cooed a little and rubbed a finger on the kitten's ear. "My favorite sweater is now the lining of his bed," she pointed into the box and he saw a soft, white material there, laid in like a nest for the little guy to sleep in. "I've only had him two days, and it seems like he's already destroyed half of my apartment."
He chuckled at that, "Just like a bad boy, eh?" He nuzzled the kitten and gave her a wink that made the blush rise up the creamy skin of her chest again. This time it continued over her neck and into her cheeks. He could get used to seeing that.
