Did he actually think she was in here with the candles and music, having a little fun with herself?
“Ah. Too bad. That would have been something to walk in on.”
He was teasing her, she realized. Making fun of her responses. With effort, she reined in her indignation. “Now, if you don’t mind, I’d like to put some clothes on.”
“No problem.” He started to leave but glanced at her over his shoulder, his dark eyes deliciously warm. “Next time you want a little private time, maybe hang a sock on the door.”
She almost—almost—laughed.
Then he added, “Who are those cookies for?”
“They’re for Mr. Johnson. Don’t eat any!”
“Not even one?”
“I didn’t make them for you!”
She normally wouldn’t have been stingy with cookies, but she was too rattled now to be generous. And mostly she wanted him out of the bathroom.
He was grumbling as he closed the door.
He really was much too good-looking, now that he’d gotten rid of all that extraneous hair. He looked more like he used to look, when she’d considered him part of her family, when she’d thought he was the best guy in the world.
She sighed as she pulled on her robe and blew out the candles.
He wasn’t that guy anymore.

About Samantha Chase
New York Times and USA Today Bestseller/contemporary romance writer Samantha Chase released her debut novel, Jordan's Return, in November 2011. Although she waited until she was in her 40's to publish for the first time, writing has been a lifelong passion. Her motivation to take that step was her students: teaching creative writing to elementary age students all the way up through high school and encouraging those students to follow their writing dreams gave Samantha the confidence to take that step as well.
When she's not working on a new story, she spends her time reading contemporary romances, blogging, playing way too many games of Scrabble on Facebook and spending time with her husband of 25 years and their two sons in North Carolina.
