Chapter 89 The Ladies Room

• The orchestra crescendoed, the last vibrating note from the waltz floating heavily in the ballroom air. Quin released Cole’s hand, the sudden departure from his touch making her hands tremble.
• She did not turn to see Cole’s stare on her; she could feel its heavy intensity on her naked back.
• The burgundy-colored satin gown was tight to her body, the smoothness of the fabric shifting along the contours of her figure with each breath. The cowl neckline caressed her breasts; the back of the gown was wide open, exposing the nakedness of her back to the chilled air in the ballroom and the staring eyes of onlookers.
