She fell quiet before adding, “Truth is … sometimes they do jump in with an opinion. But I guess most mothers are like that. Overly protective.”
He inhaled deeply, then swallowed that damn ache again.
The GPS gave a few more instructions before he pulled up outside a block of upmarket town houses. The rain had stopped so he shut down the wipers. When he left the engine running, however, she seemed surprised.
“You’re not seeing me to the door?”
“You don’t want me to.”
“Wow. You really are trying.” Then she cocked her head. “Unless this is a reverse psychology thing where pulling back is supposed to draw me deeper into your web.”
He held up his hands. “No webs. I didn’t even see the latest Spider-Man flick. Yet.”
“I’ve seen it twice. Right through to the very last credit.”
“Well, a movie’s not over until you’ve scanned the hundred names under visual effects.”
“Now you’re mocking me.”
“Never.”
She tried to hide a grin. “And here I was thinking you were the type who enjoyed getting a rise out of poor unsuspecting folk like me.”
“Only if I’m sure they won’t belt me.”
“Then I should warn you I have a power right hook.”
“Which is why I have only the utmost respect for you.”
That twinge of a grin grew. “You do, huh?”
“Yeah.” He paused. “I really do.”
Her eyes were so bright. In the light filtering through her window, her face appeared almost luminous. Free of pretense. Even vulnerable.

The tips of his fingers curled around the leather of the steering wheel. He wouldn’t act on the need. Even when that superior force building inside of him was so strong … like a big wave curling over his head, pushing him forward, giving him no choice but to leave his sense of reason behind in the wash.
But in his heart of hearts, Daniel knew. Logic had never been the issue here. Not for either of them.
