“Indeed.” He wagged his brows at her. “I’m becoming quite famous in my trade.”
She trailed her fingers across his chest. “But don’t forget that I am a quite sought after seamstress as well.”
His eyes darkened with desire as he halted her movements. “I don’t think such vigorous activity is advisable in your condition, Mrs. Reed. Not to mention it would be the height of impropriety should we wait too long to greet our guests.”
He growled deep in his throat, and she knew that she had him exactly where she wanted him. He pulled her to her feet and captured her mouth in a drugging kiss, the kind that never failed to weaken her knees. “Let’s go upstairs.”
She grinned as she looked above them, where one of several kissing boughs was strung about their home. “I thought you’d never ask.”
