Last Chance Proposal (Entangled Bliss)

by DeLeo, Barbara

  “Shane,” she cooed back.

  Then she kissed him.

  And he was lost.

  Lips sweeter than anything he’d ever tasted. Delicate but unyielding. Also trouble with a capital T.

  He felt the kiss everywhere in the most hellish good way imaginable. He kissed her back, the thrill of connecting like this rousing his greed. He’d been aching for this moment since the second he’d met her and the fact that she took the initiative set his blood on fire.

  The kiss started like they had all the time in the world. Slow. Sensual. Sincere. When he couldn’t take it anymore, he teased her lips open with his tongue. She let out a moan and allowed him inside.

  The sexy sound, her surrender, took his pleasure and magnified it times a thousand. Better than his daydreams, better than his fantasies.

  Her hands moved to his shoulder blades, stroked his back. He sank against her, careful to keep the majority of his weight on his arms. He licked and nibbled, their tongues mated, and he deepened the kiss. Tingles—he didn’t get tingles—went off where her fingers touched through his shirt. He’d never wanted someone more than he wanted Kagan, but he had to slow things back down. Savor this—whatever this was.

  She groaned when he let up on the pressure. He echoed her sentiment and moved his lips against hers in careful abandon to take the edge off the strain in his shorts. He concentrated on her ripe mouth, on bringing her to the edge. It must have worked because she wanted no part of slow after he’d lingered for maybe half a minute. She squeezed his shoulders, curled her tongue around his and kissed him so thoroughly stars winked behind his eyelids.

  Had he ever had a kiss this good? This mind-blowing?

  No. And no.
