“So this is the famous bed of Logan Brantley.”
I look at her sideways. “Famous? Not exactly.”
“But half the women in this town want to say they’ve been in it.”
“They haven’t, and since I’ve got no plans to change that, they’ll have to live with the disappointment.” I nod toward the doorway across the room. “The master bath is through there. More showerheads than one man needs, but after I’ve been up to my elbows in grease and oil all day, I appreciate being clean.”
Banner turns around to face me. “I really do love it. You did an incredible job, Logan.”
Silence falls between us, and I find my plans for tonight aren’t what I anticipated. As much as I want to spend the rest of the night inside Banner, right now what I want even more is to fall asleep with her in my arms in my own damned bed.
She’s the game changer.
And now I’ve got my work cut out for me to make sure I win the game.
Chapter 32
Banner
Where am I?
I blink and take in the slate-blue-colored walls, and wood trim that looks nothing like anywhere I’ve ever been. The weight of an arm is wrapped around me, and heat presses against my back.
For a second, I wonder if I made a huge mistake, but then my mind kicks into gear.
Logan.
Logan’s bed.
Logan’s house.
And we didn’t even have sex last night.
I have absolutely no idea how to navigate the waters, especially since he told me I’m going to fall in love with him.I’m so out of my depth.
“I swear I can feel your brain flipping on,” Logan’s deep voice rumbles in my ear. “Your whole body tenses like you’re not sure whether you should bolt.”
“It’s creepy that you think you can read my mind,” I whisper.
“Tell me I’m wrong.”
“I’m thinking I have no idea how to handle this non-relationship of ours.”
I find myself flat on my back, and Logan’s big body hovering over me a moment later.
“This is a relationship, Banner. Have no doubt about that.”
I wonder if my eyes bulge as big as they feel when he says it. “But—”
“No buts about it. We’re dating. And we’re going to have our first official Kentucky date tonight.”
“We are? And why are you so bossy all of a sudden?”
“I’ve always been bossy. You just didn’t mind because it was all in bed.”
True story.
Logan lowers himself to his elbows, and his heavy erection presses into my thigh.
