EXCERPT:

Tired of talking through the shower curtain, Layla poked her wet head out and found Quin. He’d changed into a pair of shorts and was leaning against the vanity, and his hands were tucked in his pockets as he stared at the floor. Layla hadn’t seen him put his hands in his pockets since the night she met him, so his stance struck her as odd as his voice.

“Hey,” she said, trying to put some oomph into it.

He looked up, smiling when he found her eyes. “Hey back.”

“Stop worrying about me,” she insisted. “I'll be okay.”

He pulled his hands from his pockets and straightened from the vanity. “Are you uncomfortable with me in here?”

“No, but you look uncomfortable.”

“I’m worried.”

“About what?”

“Crossing a line.”

She smirked and raised an eyebrow. “Are there any lines left?”

He stepped forward and touched his fingertips to her lips. “A few.”

“Well you're not crossing any right now.”

He took one more step, and his palm slid to her cheek, tilting her head back for a kiss. “You look beautiful,” he whispered.

“I'm all wet,” she countered.

He raised his eyebrows and grinned. “Exactly.”

IMPASSION EXCERPT:

“My questions are done now. No more asking for permission. I’m going to do what I want, and if you don’t like it, you’re going to have to tell me.”

Layla nodded as a shudder rocked her body. Just the thought of Quin doing what he wanted with her had her hips twitching like mad. When did she become so damn libidinous?

His satisfied smile stayed in place as he leaned close, perching his lips on hers. Then he softly kissed before pulling away. When his hand left her face, his t-shirt disappeared.

Layla flinched and blinked. Then she laughed as she rolled her eyes at herself. “That’s convenient.”

She looked at his exposed torso, and the next thing she knew, her fingers were on his ridged abdomen, like they had a mind of their own and were determined to explore every groove. She’d known he was muscular, but seeing him shirtless was like the unveiling of Michelangelo’s David, only way better, because Quin’s bronze skin felt nothing like cold, uninviting stone. Warm and smooth, it stretched over immaculate angles, tempting her to cuddle him like she would a fuzzy pillow or a furry kitten. He was beyond perfect, and she felt quite blessed her sense of touch was alive and well.

As she ran a fingernail along the defined indentation below his abs, a chill swept over her, and she looked down, gasping at her bare breasts. Her tank top was gone! She was shirtless!

EXCERPT 9:

The door opened, and Rhosewen slipped inside, flashing a smile as she clicked the latch into place. Aedan smirked at her stubbornness. Then his breath caught in his chest as she stepped into the moonlight.

She wore a wispy, white nightgown with thin straps and a deep neckline, displaying her slender collarbones and firm cleavage.

Aedan swallowed a lump then slid his gaze down her curvy waist, his lips parting with a reverent sigh. The hem of her gown wafted around her upper thighs, giving him his first full view of her legs, which were even better than he’d imagined, and he’d imagined them perfect.

She walked toward him, her ivory skin glittering with every fluid step. “Were you sleeping?” she whispered, climbing into bed.

Aedan rolled onto his side and propped his head on his hand, scanning her from head to toe. “Nuh-uh.”

She wiggled closer. “I was missing you.”

“What a coincidence,” he whispered, drifting his thumb over her cheek. “I was missing you.”

He wanted to see the rest of her body, the parts hidden beneath the thin nightgown. They called his name, testing his self-control. “You have a fantastic body, Rose. If you’re here to tempt me, mission accomplished.”

His fingertips slid into the V of her gown then flitted to her side, trailing over her hip to her thigh. Goosebumps followed, and she giggled, cuddling closer to his warm body.

“How tempted are you?” she asked.

He returned his fingers to her cheek, tilting her head back to find her eyes. “Very, but I don’t want to push my luck.”

“You’re sweet,” she whispered, searching his gaze, “and I love that about you, but right now, there’s something else I want.”

“I’ll give you the world, Rose.”

“I don’t want the world. I want you to stop being so polite to my parents and start making love to me.”

“Here?” he laughed.

“Now,” she soberly confirmed, wrapping a hand around the back of his neck.

Impassion (Mystic 2) Excerpt

Layla closed her eyes, sighing her agreement as Quin’s hands slid under her shirt. He flexed his fingers, inciting goose bumps and a shiver. Then he took her by the ribs and squeezed.

A laugh burst from her diaphragm as she jolted and twisted away, reaching for the safety of the floor, but he pulled her back in.

“No you don’t,” he refused, somehow finding every ticklish spot on her body.

“Quin!”

“What?”

She struggled to breathe as she pushed on his chest. “Stop.”

“Or what?” he challenged, sliding a hand to her thigh.

She yanked in air as she stretched for his neck, and in her desperation, she sucked harder than she’d intended. His game ceased, and she softened, puckering around his strong pulse.

“Mmm…” he murmured. “You could calm a battlefield with those lips.”

She slid her fingers into his hair as she pressed closer, kissing again and again; and it made her heady, as if he’d bathed in wine. He swept her hair aside, exposing the sensitive dip between her shoulder blades, and as his hand spanned bare skin, she quivered with an internal throb she’d never felt before. Her heart stuttered then sped, and warmth surged her veins, intensely flaring in some areas while soothing others.

The hand on her thigh flexed around fluctuating muscles then slid to the tender spot below her hip, leaving a charged trail in its wake. She twitched as he gathered her skirt in his fist, his sigh floating through curls to stimulate her scalp. Then he unfurled his fist and extended his fingers, grasping her pelvic bone and butt in one firm handful.

Searing heat rolled over her, curling her in before stretching her out, and her muscles stiffened as her cheeks flamed. She knew she must look like an idiot—eyes shut, head tilted back, chest heaving—but she was too rigid with arousal to do anything about it.
