She perused him in a leisurely manner. It was the first time she had ever been close to a man of his size and physique. Odd how she wasn’t in the least bit intimidated, by his proportions or his masculinity. She immediately understood why. He was a ghost, a person just a bit more tangible than her imagination but not substantial enough to be a threat. Yes, this was the kind of man she could deal with. He was arrogant and impossible, but he had a kind of teasing manner about him that was utterly charming. And he looked at her as if he actually found her appealing. Desirable was pushing things, but appealing she could believe.
She saw Kendrick’s hand lying on the armrest, just an inch or two from her chair and found herself suddenly overcome by an utterly ridiculous idea. Would he feel it if she touched him? Would she feel him?
Hesitantly, she put her hand over his. A tingle, like a hint of static electricity touched her. Her hand went through his to rest on the chair.
She looked down, speechless. Kendrick’s hand surrounded hers, like an aura. Real, but not real. What if it had been? She leaned her head against the back of the chair and closed her eyes, giving her imagination free rein. The century didn’t matter, she had Kendrick and that was the only thing important to her.Turn to the back of this book for
