Sera had
never been in a more frustrating conversation in her life. “Nothing more
ego-stroking than the idea of two women competing for your attention, huh?”
“If you
say so.”
Suddenly,
she’d had enough. Enough of a guy who could juggle women with dexterity—even
injured.
“You
don’t remember,” she snapped.
“Remember
what?”
“Spring
break in Florida eight years ago.”
Jordan’s
lips curved. “Am I supposed to?”
“It
depends,” Sera said sarcastically. “Do you keep a running tally of the women
you dally with, or do they just run together in one seamless and nameless
highlight video in your mind?”
Jordan
tilted his head, looking more intent. “Dally with?”
She
gestured with her hands. “Flirt with. Come on to... Kiss.”
“I’m
supposed to remember every woman I ever flirted with?”
“Granted,
it must be a long list. How about kissed?”
“Including
the fans who’ve thrown their arms around me?”
She drew
her brows together. “Including the ones you’ve chatted up on spring break and
engaged in some lip-to-lip action with after a couple of beers.”
Jordan
regarded her thoughtfully. “Are you saying we’ve kissed...and I don’t remember
it?”
Sera
smacked her forehead. “Give the man a prize for a light-bulb moment.”
Jordan
grinned. “It must have been some kiss.”
“You
don’t remember it!”
“But you
do.” ###
