Excerpt:
It
was not a gentle kiss. It was not tame or timid or questioning.
It
burned her down to the root of Sam's soul. It touched something deep and dark
and hidden.
Something
she'd thought was long since dead and buried and gone.
Patrick’s
tongue slid against hers, stroking to life the very sensations she thought
she'd never feel again.
It
was electric, the feel of his mouth against hers. The scrape of stubble against
her chin, the taste of him. The smell of his skin.
He
nipped her. Pinched her bottom lip between his teeth and sucked it. And she
sighed at the pleasure, at the raw ache his taste and touch aroused in her,
pushing aside the darkness that haunted her.
Sam
felt him. Felt everything. The heat of his skin. The warmth that drew her
closer. That made her want to crawl into his lap and unzip his pants and push
up that damned flannel shirt until they were skin to skin and there was nothing
between them but sweat and heat.
One
hand slid down her side. Tugged at her fleece and...
"Dear
lord how many layers of clothing do you have on under this thing," he
muttered against her lips.
She
smiled. "You weren't wondering why I wasn't cold?"
"Well
you'd be a champ at strip poker right about now," he murmured.
Then
his fingers found her skin and she was no longer thinking.
