Excerpt
"Why, Jared Hoffman, do you not want this?" I tease, slowly unbuttoning his shirt.
He smiles, his hands bracing themselves on the bed at either side of my head. "I didn't say that... it's just I don't want to rush anything."
Jared's shirt falls open when I finally reach the last button. His perfect abs are shadowed and defined by the moonlight. My eyes start up his chest. "Rush?" I whisper softly as my hands graze their way up his biceps that frame my face. "Jare... this has been seven long years in the making. I think we've waiting long enough."
He pauses for a second. I hear his breath hitch in his throat as his dark eyes study my face. For some reason, I'm surprised when I feel Jared's lips on mine. The passion between us is renewed at my admission. It's my turn to moan against his lips. My legs automatically slide up and down his, causing my dress to hike up slightly before my legs wrap themselves around his waist. His hands make their way up my side slowly as if ingraining into memory the curves of my body. My hands have automatically found their way to his belt. I slip my fingers through it and feel his hands squeeze me tight. His lips leave mine for the first time since I spoke, and I feel them slowly trace their way down my neck. My fists clench against the skin on his waist.
"Oh, Jared," I groan.
His body freezes above me for a fraction of a second. His head lifts out of the crook of my neck to meet my eyes again.
"Do you know how long I've waited to hear you call my name like that?" he whispers. My hands find their way to his face and mingle with his hair. "There's more where that came from." I shoot him a sexy smirk before pulling his lips back to mine.
