Her Sexy Valentine

Carol stared up at him, incredulous. “I’d heard that.” She palmed the earring. “Let’s go. Hurry. Before something…happens.”
But at the door, one thing made her turn back. “Aren’t you forgetting something?”
Luke frowned. “What?”
“The candy you bought me?”
He squinted at her. “How do you know about the candy?”
“I just do,” she said, crossing her arms.
“It’s not much,” he said, reaching high on a shelf to remove a heart-shaped box of chocolates. When he handed her the box, his cheeks were tinged pink. The red silk box read “I Love You.”
Surprise sparkled in her chest at the romantic gesture.
Luke scratched his head. “To be honest, I’m not quite sure why I bought that one. It just seemed…right. I feel like…I know you, Carol…more than I do…”
Apparently deciding actions spoke louder than words, he lowered his mouth toward hers. She lifted her mouth to accept his kiss, sighing through the overlapping of sensations that were both new and familiar. Far removed from their first kiss, her mind and body still reeled from the raw power in Luke’s probing tongue.
He lifted his head and looked into her eyes. “Do you believe in déjà vu?”
“Oh, yes,” she whispered, then curled her hand around his neck and pulled his lips down on hers, hard.
