Chapter 23: Chapter 23

　　The man Owen stood next to was breath takingly gorgeous. She suddenly understood what Megan meant when she said she saw a man across the room and her knees went weak. Emily had never had that sort of reaction to anyone… until now. She had always assumed it was because Owen was so good looking, and her heart had been his since they were six, making her immune to the charms of other men.

The man was every dirty fantasy she had ever held, she thought as she looked up at him. As tall as Owen, his shoulders filling out his shirt very nicely and tapering into a waist that she knew indicated a totally lick-able body under the fabric.
