Excerpt

 

        For the first time in what seemed like an eternity, she desired something more out of life. Something this man now dangled in front of her like a prize. A prize he was all too willing to freely give.

Body functioning on its own, her hands tentatively rose around his strong neck. Then on tiptoes, she drew even closer and waited for the kiss she prayed would follow.

"Now that's more like it." He laughed huskily and bent his head, brushing his warm sensuous lips across hers so delicately she wasn't certain he'd kissed her at all. "You make me forget what I'm supposed to be doing here," he said against her ear before easing her head back.

Then his mouth slipped down and captured hers with a hungry, forceful longing that tempted her sanity. He held nothing back. All the passion and desire built up inside from the first day they'd met spilled over them. She swayed against him, her lips parting in open invitation, lids drifting closed in anxious anticipation.

With one passionate kiss, he took her farther and farther into a world of excitement she'd thought lost forever. The feel of his hard muscular body against her own drove her mad. She tightened her grip, tried to get closer, melt into him, become as one.

Another husky moan registered from deep inside him and he broke the kiss to stare hungrily into her eyes. "Kathleen, there's something I need to tell…"
