Excerpt
Shelby brushed her lips against
his, her whole body seeming to come
to life. His lips were soft, his hands tight.
He was enveloping her and
she was completely defenseless against him.
She wrapped her arms around
him as the kiss deepened, and suddenly she didn’t want
to play it safe anymore. She’d been
in her shell for so long and she
wanted to come out of it,
wanted to feel again.
She dragged her tongue over his lower lip, and it seemed to awaken the
beast in Drew.
He took over, the kiss going from sweet to carnal
in an instant. His mouth opened, tongue sliding
over hers and dominating with strength and a sensuality she’d never come across before.
He kissed her long
and hard, his hands molding
to the curves of her body. Over and over again his
tongue danced with
hers. Never before had
a kiss seemed so effortless. It was like they’d been kissing forever.
For a man who claimed
he was socially awkward, he sure could kiss like a god.
It was getting
out of hand, but she
didn’t care. Nothing mattered except getting more of him. She could feel his cock under her, hardening, lengthening, getting ready
for what it was meant
to do. He could ease her back against the table, pull off her jeans and panties. It would be incendiary, like a rocket going off, an explosion
she couldn’t contain. She could feel herself
getting soft and wet and ready for him, as
though her body had recognized its natural mate and wasn’t taking
no for an answer.
“See, I told you we have chemistry.” His words rumbled along her lips.
She couldn’t argue
with him. The world around them seemed hazy and unreal.
There was nothing
except his touch
and scent and the sight
of his eyes looking
at her like he could
eat her up. She knew she should stop him, knew it was getting
out of control, but she couldn’t find the will. It had been so
damn long since she wanted something she could actually have.
She wanted him.
Shelby
let her fingers sink into his hair, drawing him back down. Breakfast could wait. She needed more of him.
