Hard as Stone (Passion in Paradise: The Men of the McKinnnon Sisters) (72 page)

Wrong.

She hadn’t
learned.  Not even a little bit.

She’d allowed a
second shot to the man that had poorly initiated her body to sex.  Look
where that bright idea had landed her bony ass.

That’s right,
folks.  In the middle of pregnancy-infested waters!

Although, she had
to admit that Abel Turner had made up in spades for that first lackluster
intimate dance they’d shared three years ago.  A mere month ago, thanks to
indulging in a little too much Cuervo Gold on her part and him partaking in a
shade too much Jack Daniels, she’d allowed Abel to convince her that giving him
a do-over was the only fair thing to do.  She blamed the tequila and her
hormones.  He thought it was his mad skills that had changed her mind.

Either way, the
second time they’d done the horizontal mambo had yielded her more than her fair
share of orgasms.  Seven of them to be exact.

Unfortunately, that
long night had also produced another unforeseen result.

Unless Lucky #13
said differently, she reminded herself hopefully as she sank back to her spot
between the toilet and the tub to wait and eyed the test stick nervously.
 Leaning her head against the wall, she sighed and remembered the path
she’d taken that had led her here.
