From the Inside Flap
Dorian sighs. "I know what you're going to say. But this can't get--"
"Too serious, I know. I get it. But it's hard," I say.
Dorian pulls me to my feet and I find myself pressed against the tree. I raise my hands to push him away, but his strong fingers imprison mine above my head. I stare into those hypnotic eyes. My knees tremble. Blood springs from my heart and pounds in my brain. Desire flares in his bold stare, and I can't move. Can't even think. The world has vanished. Nothing exists outside of this thrilling moment. Dorian leans in close, and a spark of response leaps between us. His fingers tighten on my wrists.
"I should do what's right," he says, inclining his head and placing his mouth near my ear. "And leave you alone."
I'm unsure whether to step away or invade his personal space. After a moment's hesitation, I lean into him and his hold loosens. The heat of his body enters mine, and his vibrant masculine presence overwhelms and robs me of breath. Things like that will do something funny to a girl's head.
One of his hands glides to my neck, then fists gently in my hair. He tugs on it and tilts my head to the side, exposing my throat. He leans closer and softly presses his lips to my skin. A low heat throbs between my legs, growing more intense with each caress of his lips. Sliding my hands over his chest, I push them beneath the hem of his shirt, seeking warm flesh. He traces his sensual lips over my pulse, jawline, and down my neck. I arch into him and close my eyes. Wait for the touch of his lips on mine.
His mouth travels across my cheek, and my breathing stops. I have never wanted anything more than to feel his warm lips against mine. Blood courses through me, hot and thick, as my skin flushes under his touch.
Then his mouth claims mine, owning me. Branding me as his forever, and I am lost. Our tongues entwine slowly, erotically. A blaze ignites inside my body, threatening to escape and engulf us both, as my soft curves yield against his firmness. The kiss feels sensual and exciting, and also so completely perfect...
