Living Victorious, 2
Cateline Lyon has never forgotten the boy she gave her heart to.
When they have a chance to reconnect she takes the opportunity. No matter the
challenges that may come from his fame, she won’t let him get away again.
Shade Benson always turns to music for comfort. It's his way of
expressing the emotions he never could talk about. Having Cateline back in his
life, crazy though it may be, he feels the beginnings of a song lighting up his
soul. All for her.
EXCERPT:
When he lowered his face toward hers, Cat grabbed onto his waist
until she found the belt loops, and could hook her fingers through them. She
had a feeling she was going to need an anchor. His lips brushed gently to hers,
causing her breath to catch in her throat. Letting it out in a rush, she barely
had time to suck in another lungful before he took her mouth.
Moaning, she let her lids drift down. One hand at a time, she
moved them to hook around his neck until she was practically hanging off him.
Not that he apparently minded if the growl he let loose was anything to go by.
His hands tightened on her ass, and then he lifted. Knowing what he wanted, Cat
jumped to wrap her legs around his waist.
Shade began to move, but wherever he was taking her, she didn’t
care. Winding her arms around his neck, she broke the kiss to suck in some air.
It was only a moment he gave her before taking her mouth again as he hit the
stairs.
Cat rocked her hips against him and the seam at her crotch
rubbed to his prominent erection. When Shade tore his mouth from hers to curse,
Cateline pressed her mouth to his neck and grinned. She gave the tendon in his
neck a little bite, and ground against his cock again.
Another curse sounded he stumbled up the last couple steps. She
soon found her back pressed to the wall with his body pressing tighter to hers.
Cat pushed her hands into his hair, and lifted her face to kiss him again.
“Shade,” she said. Then she let out a moan against his mouth. “Need you, now.”
He must have agreed because his hands landed on her ass, and she
felt them moving again. Tightening her hold on his hair, Cateline brushed
kisses all over his face. The door slamming shut warned her they were finally
in his bedroom. Which meant the bed was close.
Something she soon found herself bouncing on with a shriek when
he tossed her. Pressing her hand to the mattress, she sat up quickly to face
him. Whatever she’d been about to say was lost when her brain scrambled upon
seeing him starting to strip down.
Her mouth actually went dry when he pulled the shirt over his
head to bare his torso. She’d laid against that chest last night, but hadn’t
seen it. This morning she sadly hadn’t been paying attention. Scrambling for
the edge, Cat knelt down as close as she could get and pressed her hands to his
skin. Her fingers brushed over the tattoo on his chest. Sucking in a sharp
breath, she felt tears welling up at the tiny furry kitten curled up wearing a
collar bearing her name on the tag.
“Shade.” Somehow she managed to force his name out around the emotional
lump residing in her throat.
His hand came down over hers to flatten her palm to his flesh.
“First one I put on my skin, Cat. The only one that holds more meaning than I
could ever express.”

AUTHOR BIO:
Moira Callahan is a Canadian born and raised author. She loves
to write, and only has a few select criteria that have to be in each of her
books. A great story, steamy romance, and a HEA ending. The sub-genre isn’t as
important to her as making whatever she writes feel real, and in the moment to
her readers.
To that end she insists her characters be as real as everyday
folks, even if they are blessed with a little fictional fairy dust to make them
anyone’s personal fantasy. They must have faults, they must have a weakness,
and they must have soul. To that end she writes her characters with a mixture of
traits – a dash from herself, and something borrowed from a friend. This way
the character is as perfectly imperfect as any other person on the planet.
