Excerpt:
Rafi refused to think about the repercussions of his actions as he bent his head and kissed Lona. Her lips were softer and sweeter than he had imagined and he had to remind himself to go slow. The growing desire to touch her had been driving him crazy all week. His cock hardened in an instant as she surrendered to his kiss, welcoming his tongue with her own as he tasted her for the first time.
She wrapped her arms around his neck as he placed his hands on her waist. He wanted to crush her body against his, but…
But then she’d feel your raging hard-on.
Right. She’d agreed to a kiss—only a kiss. He groaned as she pulled away. One kiss wasn’t nearly enough.
Damn!
He wanted her so badly. Spending so much time with her had wreaked havoc on the walls he kept in place specifically to avoid the longing and the feelings he was experiencing right now. She pulled every protective instinct out of him. Her sweet spirit made him want to shield her from all the pain in her life, and even though he knew he couldn’t, he wanted to try.
Rafi looked down at Lona, wondering if she had any idea how the shade of pink of her swimsuit set off her lovely eyes. The sound of the water lapping around them seemed loud as he waited for her to make the next move…or to say something.
“You wanted to kiss me?”
Her husky question made his cock tighten almost painfully in the snug swimming shorts.
“For days.”
No need to tell her what else he’d dreamt about doing to her.
“Kiss me again.”
Her voice was a soft whisper filled with need and Rafi obliged her, taking her lips in a hungry kiss. She melted in his arms and he struggled to hold her back as she continued to press her body closer to his. There was no way she wouldn’t feel his stiff cock against her stomach.
Lona froze, wrenching her lips from his.
“You’re so hard.”
Her breath fanned his cheek as she played with the hair at the nape of his neck.
“Lona…”
She pulled back to stare at him. “You want me?”
Rafi looked down at her in surprise. “How could I not?”
The doubt in her eyes made him want to show her just how much he wanted her.
Lona averted her gaze as she shook her head. “I’m a wreck.”
“Not to me.”
Rafi squeezed her waist as she turned her face back to his. He was captivated by the way the waning sunlight danced over the honey highlights in her hair.
“I’m homeless.”
“Mi casa es su casa.”
Rafi grinned as Lona smiled, tension fading from her face for a moment.
“I’m pregnant with another man—a crazy man’s child.”
“I know.” He touched her cheek. “That doesn’t change my wanting you.”
