Excerpt : A Lesson in Temptation
Julie felt Adam’s breath hitch in his chest, felt something hard and insistent rise against her thigh. He turned his head to look at her, his ocean-blue eyes deepened to a rich sapphire.
Oh my God. Oh my God he’s going to kiss—
But the loud clap of hands interrupted her thought, and abruptly he let her go, then backed away blinking. Ivana’s voice grew louder as the rush of blood left Julie’s head, and her heartbeat slowly calmed.
“Lovely dancing, everyone! Come back into the circle now. I have one last thing to show you before we go.It’s time for the next step.”
Julie couldn’t help but think that truer words had never been spoken.
They watched as Ivana demonstrated a move and asked them to practice it at home just before class ended. Julie hesitated for just a second. His body had responded. Could she maybe see if she could change his mind, even a little? She hadn’t wanted something this badly for so long…
Just go for it!
“Do you want to get a drink?” She blurted the words before she could overthink it. There. Done. Extending the invitation had been almost painful, but she was not about to turn tail and run from a little discomfort. She’d been there, done that, and she was through with it.
He stared at her for a second, then said slowly, “I should really get home.”
She tried not to sigh with disappointment. “No problem. It was good to see you tonight, anyway.” She didn’t want to ask him whether he’d be here next week. More than likely, his answer wouldn’t be what she wanted to hear. She might not mind a little discomfort, but there was such a thing as being just plain stupid. But before she could tell him good-bye, Adam shrugged.
“Actually, yeah. I’d like to come with you.
Excerpt : One Night in Bueno
Sleep with Joe. Have sex with Joe. Get screwed six ways to Sunday by Joe. A week of sex to go with their week of sun, and then they’d go about their regularly scheduled lives once they touched down in Boston.
Their relationship was, as he put it, solid. The last year or two had hit them both with significant personal blows, and instead of pushing them apart, it had brought them closer. And that mouth, God, that mouth. If the rest of the business was as hot as his kisses, it could be worth it.
She enjoyed sex. A lot. She missed it. She missed everything that went with it, too. The cuddling, the laughter, the joy of discovering new things about your partner. The sleepy mornings, the quiet sighs. The late nights spent wrapped around each other, reveling in touch.
But what made it so good was the buildup. All the exploration, like a slow, slow strip tease, and that couldn’t be accomplished in a week. Sex meant too much to her. So did Joe. No, no matter how much his kisses had seeped into her blood, she couldn’t take the risk of finding out what the more would feel like.
