Tongue-Tied

Robin Lee is a woman of few words so she lets her actions stand for themselves. And when Johnny Dayton -- her bad-boy crush from childhood -- appears in her life, she shows him how happy she is to see him. But Johnny's hiding something from her. Suddenly she wishes she knew how to ask him what that is before this steamy encounter involves her heart.

The last thing Johnny was looking for when he walked into the diner was the hottest kiss he's ever had. And after those earth-shattering moments, he's not letting Robin out of his life again. Problem is, Johnny's no longer the man Robin thinks he is. So he has to do some fast talking to convince her he's worthy of more of her sexy embraces.
