stone hearth. In the corner, standing by of the curved bar, was the most gorgeous woman he’d ever seen.
    She smiled wide when their gazes met. “Wow! You grew up.”
    Max opened his mouth to respond then closed it again quickly. There was no way this sexy creature in front of him was Cassie Wilson. Gone were the braids and the crooked teeth. Instead, she had a pixie cut of short brown hair with streaks of blond. She had to be only five foot five or so. She was tanned and had a body built for a man’s hands. He actually had to clench his teeth to keep from reaching out for her.
    He groaned mentally. Not what he had expected.
    Cassie Wilson was an attractive woman. Her soft, chocolate eyes sparkled with amusement as she licked her lips.
    Fuck ! His cock hardened painfully. Max struggled to push aside his carnal needs and remember there were two other people in the room.

Chapter Three
     
     
     
    Max’s reaction shot a thrill through her. The way his gaze traveled up and down her body pushed a strong tingle of lust through her. Heat flushed into her face as she watched his eyes lighten with arousal. His appraisal of her also gave her the opportunity to stare back at him. She’d suspected Max would be good-looking since Chase and their dad were both attractive. Still, the hot, heavily muscled man across from her was not what she’d been expecting.
    He was taller than both her brother and his, so that had to put him a few inches above six feet. His short black hair was a reminder that he’d just gotten out of the military. Wide hazel eyes stared into hers and his massive chest expanded with each breath. A tight black T-shirt, faded jeans and heavy boots made up his wardrobe. She wanted to see what was underneath those garments.
    The tattoos covering both arms intrigued her. She wondered how he would respond if she ran her tongue along them—and wherever else he might have ink. How much of him was covered in ink?
    She flushed and had to tear her gaze away from his body. She turned back to the mini fridge. “So…a beer?”
    Alex chuckled and she wanted to sink into the floor. Of course her brother had caught her attraction to Max. There would be no living with him now.
    Alex was always trying to get her to step away from her studio and date. But until she’d gotten a look at Max, dating hadn’t been a high priority. She’d grown up in a small town. Sure, she’d gone out with a few of the guys, but she had never been serious about any of them.
    She popped the tops to four beers and strolled around the bar.
    Max had settled on one of the couches and Alex and Chase took the one closer to her. So she was going to have to take a seat next to Max.
    Her heart pounded frantically as she moved farther into the middle of the room.
    She passed the bottles to Chase and Alex, ignoring the gleam in her brother’s gaze. She walked over and held out another beer to Max. Their fingers brushed as he took it from her and she barely held in a gasp at the electricity that sparked between them. A glance at his lap showed he was indeed as attracted to her as she was to him. The heavy aroma of arousal and need surrounded them. His erection pushed at the zipper of his jeans. A nice-sized package, she believed.
    Since dropping to her knees to help him out probably wouldn’t go over well with the other two men in the room, she backed away slowly.
    When she’d agreed to have Max hang around as security, she’d had no idea what she was getting herself into.
    “Thank you.”
    His deep voice sent a thrill down her spine. Cassie managed a smile and nodded. She sat gently on the edge of the couch as Max took a long pull on his beer. She watched his throat work. Who knew a throat could be so damn sexy?
    She caught herself staring and quickly looked away. Her gaze passed over Alex, who still smirked. She needed to get control over herself and stop fantasizing about what Max’s large hands would feel like on her body.
    Especially under the
