by Jessi Gage
She feathered kisses over his sensitive skin, making his breath catch.
He groaned, loud and long and with a release of so much tension, his head fell back in relief. God damn, her lips felt hot and perfect on him. He wanted her tongue next. He wanted to feel the frigging back of her throat.
“Think we can do this without me getting hurt?” With each syllable her breath caressed him provocatively.
Shit, he was close to coming apart, and she hadn’t even taken him into her mouth yet.
Incapable of speech, he nodded.
She smiled. Then she took him to heaven. Well, most of the way there, anyway.
“God, I love you,” he said as she worked him. Her glittering eyes told him she loved him too.
He cupped her neck with one hand, his thumb caressing her ear where the helmet left it exposed. He loved her thick, auburn hair, but she didn’t need it to be stunning. Bald and bruised, she was still perfect, still the most beautiful thing he’d seen since Haley had been born. Like his little girl, this woman would always be perfect to him.
“Let’s go there together, sweetheart.” He pulled her up so she straddled him and lowered her onto the bed, careful of her head. His open jeans cut into his hips and ass. His shirt rode up when he came down on top of her and their stomachs brushed. He didn’t give a shit. Clothed or naked, it didn’t matter. He just needed to be in her. They’d do this again later, and he’d be slower, sweeter.
For now, he took her the way they both needed.
He kissed his woman as he made love to her. They breathed each other’s air, and they soared. Pleasure wiped out the urge to punish, love erased guilt, and the promise of a bright future eclipsed the shadows of the past.
A note from the author
Thanks so much for reading Reckless. I hope you enjoyed it. This novel is the first in my Blue Collar Boyfriends series of stand-alone contemporary romances, each with a unique paranormal twist. As the series title suggests, these novels feature heroes who are rough around the edges but tender when it counts. Next is Virgin’s Sacrifice, due out August 2014. Then look for Cole in My Stocking in time for the 2014 Holiday season.
