Upper crust, old
Boston money, and part of the infamous Boston Billionaires Club, Dylan doesn’t
have a lot of free time and he definitely doesn’t have time to hang around a
coffee shop that’s not even in his neighborhood, waiting for the Bad Girl of
Sweets to deliver her weekly confections. He doesn’t have time until he sees
her and knows he needs to make the time. She’s fiery and fierce, witty and
bright, and that was only their first introduction. Suddenly, chocolate croissants
aren’t all Dylan’s craving.

Lexi was
not a big woman to begin with. Not much more than five feet tall, he wasn’t sure how she’d carry a baby without looking like

“That’s different.”

“My
apologies,” he offered.
“But the fact remains.
I’ll take you any way I
can get you, Lex. Pregnant, not pregnant, doesn’t matter. I just want you.” He settled her on the bed, laying
her down and working on the buckle of her heels. “I’ll still want to slide these shoes off your
feet.” He dropped one
to the floor and then the other. “I’ll still want to peel these pants, that do amazing things for your ass,
by the way, off to see what’s underneath.” He
did just that, revealing her short, toned legs, and discarded them with her
shoes. “I’ll still want
to take this off,” he
whispered, tugging her sweater until she let him pull it over her head, “and spread your hair out behind you
on the bed.”

he looked down at her, all spread out like that, he knew he was a goner. She
was smiling up at him, her black hair spread out like an ink puddle underneath
her head. Even her bra and panties were black, the bra having no straps, just a
band across her chest.

“I could,”
he admitted, his eyes glued to
her stomach. There was a deep, red mark across her middle, where her pants had
dug into her skin, too tight for the tiny, burgeoning baby bump she sported. It
nearly took his breath away, the significance of what her body was doing. He
spread his fingers across her belly, the little protrusion hard under his hand.
“Don’t wear those pants anymore,” he said quietly. “They’re hurting you.”
