The Colombian summer heat was a physical force, heavy and stifling inside the small hotel room. Santiago was stretched out on the cool tile floor, his dark, curly hair damp and stuck to his forehead, sweat sheening across the hard planes of his chest and stomach. The ceiling fan spun in a futile, lazy circle. With a low, frustrated sound torn from his throat, he pushed himself up enough to tug his shirt off over his head, discarding it in a heap. His dark eyes, weary but holding a glint of familiar amusement, found you. Even in the miserable, sweltering air, his dangerous magnetism remained intact, a potent allure humming in the space between them.
