I have one rule: Don’t shit where
you eat.
Several of the women in the condo complex I own would love some one-on-one playtime, and why wouldn’t they? I’m young, fit, attractive, and loaded. Not to mention I’m packing a sizable bulge below the belt. It’s a combination that drops panties on a regular basis.
Yay, me, right?
But my cock, troublemaker that he is, has been confined to my trousers by my business partner. A concession I agreed to, and one that’s never been hard to enforce until Emery moves in across the hall. She’s smart, young, determined, and sexy as hell. I want a taste. I won’t stop until I’m buried deep inside the succulent new-in-town brunette.
After being warned about my past, she does her best to steer clear, but I’m about to show her that underneath it all, I’m a guy with a heart of gold and a cock of steel.
My name is Hayden Oliver, and this is my story.

Snippet
He opens his arms slightly. “Hug goodbye?” His crooked smile says that, if I don't accept, he'll pass it off as a joke. Something he never really meant in the first place.
I hesitate for a second, then step into his embrace. He is so warm, so solid and real, and it’s been a long time since I’ve been touched. I inhale his cologne, that same smoky spice that riveted me the first moment we met. My cheek rests against his neck where smoothness meets stubble; I can feel his pulse fluttering. I can feel the angled, muscular body under his casual clothes. And one very particular angle pressing into my stomach...
I pull back my head just far enough to look into his stunning eyes. “Stunning” is exactly the right word—they paralyze me, pin me helpless. Our mouths are less than an inch apart and I realize that my heart is hammering. Just as fast as his.
Desire and fear suddenly make me brave...or maybe just stupid. “What are we doing?” I ask him, not meaning for it to sound like a plea.
“Being friends,” he replies. His breath puffs over my lips and I almost shiver. “Why do you ask?”
“Because friends don't usually get erections for each other, do they?” I retort without any real force, bumping my hip into the large ridge in his shorts. Friends also don't get soaking wet panties, for that matter.
Hayden glances down and away, looking something close to frustrated. “I just...haven't gotten any action in a while. Ignore me. It doesn't mean anything.”
He's probably just saying that to defuse an awkward situation. But it still kind of stings to hear “it doesn't mean anything” about a boner that I'd assumed was for me. I hoped was for me.
I nod, stepping away long after I should have. “If you say so.”
