this excerpt from Man Candy:
“I’ve been wanting to do this for a while,” he
whispered in my ear, still pressed against me as he unzipped my dress.
Me too, I wanted to say. But I
didn’t. I was adrift in the onslaught of sensation as he slid the fabric from
me, trailing kisses down my back as it went. Making me aware as I never had
been of how sensitive the skin there could be. When he reached the small of my
back, he lingered, kneading my skin with his tongue and teeth. His hands ran
down my legs and then back up to my breasts, and I savored the feel of his
fingers. My breaths came heavier. I had been needing this for too long.
He rose and turned me toward him, towering over
me. His cap was gone and his dark hair was askew, as though he had run his
fingers through it, giving him that sexy just-woke-up look. I slid my fingers
from the waist of his jeans, underneath his shirt, to his muscled back. The
ridges of strength there were too tempting beneath my fingertips. How did he
find the time to work out that much? I had to see with my own eyes. Fisting the
hem of his shirt in my hands, I pulled his t-shirt up to remove it. Why should
I be the only one standing here naked? With a chuckle, he complied, lifting the
shirt over his head and flinging it away in the casual manner of an underwear
model on TV.
Sure, I had imagined what he looked like with
his shirt off, but the reality was ten times better. He had a runner build, but
that was filled out with muscle. The planes of his chest were topped by strong
shoulders and arms, which seemed to blossom over the lean ridges of his
abdominals, creating a definite contrast. I couldn’t help reaching out and
touching him. I ran my hands over his skin, tracing my way upward to the light
coating of black hair on his pectorals. He leaned his pelvis into me, forehead
on mine, his erection pressing into me, making me shiver with anticipation.
We were on the brink of something oh-so-good,
and I was dying to plunge ahead. Yet, I hesitated. Questions burned in my mind.
I tried to hold them back, knowing serious talk would ruin the moment. That
lasted about two seconds before I gave in.
“Um…” I said.
He lifted his head from mine and looked at me.
I cocked my head at him. “Did you just say
you’ve been wanting to do this for a while?” Had he been scoping me out all
this time?
He nodded. “Who wouldn’t? Look at you. You’re
gorgeous.”
The smoldering look he gave me trumped anything
I observed on the physical plane. The messages coming from him on a subliminal
level promised pleasure that made me squirm with heat.
“You know it’s going to be good between us,
Ava,” Cole said.
