Head Over Heels

by Lena Matthews

  Her mouth fell open. His dick was huge! It jutted forward, not a few inches away from her, long, proud and obscenely thick; she couldn’t tear her eyes away from it.

  “Do you like what you see?”

  “No.” The word had come out a little too quickly, even to her own ears.

  “The mouth says one thing, but the eyes don’t lie. This is what you did to me. Have you any idea how many nights I’ve lain awake thinking about this moment? When you came downstairs for dinner, I could barely sit still. I’m so fucking horny, I can’t promise our first time together will be as nice and slow as I’d like it to be.”

  Hunter pulled her against him, grinding his hardness against the juncture of her thighs before burying his face against her neck.

  She stiffened. I will not like this. He can do what he’d like to my body, but he’ll never have all of me, she silently vowed. Unfortunately, her body wasn’t in tune with her mind. To Lila’s utter shame, warmth worked its way from her core and spread throughout her being at the gentle press of his lips on her flesh.

  What had she expected? That he’d fling her on the bed, hump her a few times and be done? That’s exactly what she’d believed.

  Calloused hands slid across her shoulders and pushed the spaghetti straps of her dress down. “Beautiful chocolate skin,” he murmured, caressing her with what almost seemed like awe.

  A tremble made its way up her spine. No! This couldn’t be happening to her. She didn’t want to like this, didn’t want it to feel good. Keeping her arms firmly at her sides, her fists clenched tight, she tried to maintain a steady breathing pattern.

  Hunter pushed her dress to her waist with practiced ease. Her nipples stiffened as the cool air hit them. He lifted his head and cupped her breasts. His thumbs grazed over the turgid peaks, bringing her to painful awareness of the stirring between her legs.

  “Sexy. Like dark Hershey Kisses.”

  “Please” She whispered one last protest, not wanting to give in to the burning ache searing through her system.

  “Oh, I definitely intend to.” Hunter laughed softly and dipped his head to flick his tongue over one stiff tip, circling and teasing it until Lila began to shake uncontrollably.

  Heat flooded her pussy, forming moisture in her panties. She bit her bottom lip to hold back the moan that nearly escaped.

  Hunter pulled the burgeoning point into his hot mouth, sucking with fervent tugs.

  Almost involuntarily, her hands found their way to his silky blond tresses, digging into them and holding his head against her chest. It had been so long since she’d been held and touched like this, and she couldn’t believe how easily her body reacted to him.

  Lila pressed her thighs together to temper the heat pulsing between them. Hunter seemed to relish his task, taking his time and working her body into a frenzy.

  He turned his attention to her other nipple, giving it homage, teasing and tormenting it until she whimpered from pleasure overload. He surprised her by dropping to his knees, taking her dress down with him until her garment formed a little black puddle at her feet.

  Hunter jerked her panties down and nudged her thighs further apart, before burying his face between her legs, inhaling deeply. “Mmm. I love the scent of your arousal.

  You’re so responsive. I like that.”

  Lila looked down to see he was eye level with her pussy. Why did he have to torture her this way? And why was she so turned on by the simple act of him staring at her?

  “I’m glad you’re not completely shaved down here. I like my women to look like women and not little girls and you’re all woman, aren’t you, Lila?” He brushed the nest of tight curls with the heel of his palm.

  The warring emotions raging through her were making this ordeal more difficult to bear. Despite his skillful ministrations and her body’s responses to them, she had to somehow get herself under control or she wouldn’t be able to think straight. “Please, c-can’t you just get this over with? I-I don’t want this.”

  He lifted his head to look her in the face with knowing eyes. “I won’t dignify that comment with a response, especially when you’re so hot a trail of cream is running down the inside of your delectable thigh.” And to prove his point, he ran his tongue along the very line he’d pointed out.

  Lila had to grip his shoulders to remain on her feet, otherwise her wobbly knees would have given out on her. Besides, she was still wearing the black heels she’d donned earlier, and it grew increasingly difficult to hold steady on them.

  Parting the slick folds of her pussy, Hunter leaned forward and placed a kiss against her swollen clit and followed it with a long broad lick.

  Her nails dug into his skin as she attempted to hold on to the last bit of her sanity.

  Lila could no longer kid herself. She wanted him. She was probably damned for feeling this way, but by God, the fire flowing through her veins could no longer be denied, especially when he sucked her hot nubbin into his mouth, his teeth grazing against it until she could no longer hold her excited moans back.

  “Please.” This time her impassioned plea was not for him to stop, but for him not to.

  He’s hot. He’s young—way too young. But he’s playing for real.

  Maddy Terrell is forty years old with an adult son and a time-consuming career. The last thing she is looking for is a relationship. In fact, all she wants is a ride—from Los Angeles to San Francisco so she can attend her niece’s wedding. But the ride she was counting on has just stood her up, and her only choice is to accept a lift from Tonio Herrera.

  He’s Latino. He’s hot. He’s also twenty-four, just too much of a stretch for Maddy to even contemplate, no matter how attracted she is to him.

  Tonio’s not driving Maddy to San Francisco out of the kindness of his heart. In fact, he has a very specific ulterior motive. Maddy is the most attractive woman he has ever met. After months of flirting, he’s determined that this weekend in San Francisco will finally get her attention.

  Then comes the hard part—convincing Maddy he wants more than just a weekend fling.

  Warning: Shameless flirting, public sex on the San Francisco Bay, road trip fun, and a May/December love affair.

  Enjoy the following excerpt for Querida:

  Maddy was certain the food was delicious, but she couldn’t really taste it. It seemed she didn’t have enough concentration to focus on the food because her other four senses were drinking Tonio in. She wasn’t sure when she had officially made the decision to throw caution to the wind and have a weekend fling with a boy almost half her age, but the decision had been made, and she couldn’t go back on it. Not now. Not with her entire body aching for another touch. Not while her pussy clenched and fluttered every damned time he smiled at her.

  And he smiled at her a lot.

  Maddy had had other flings like this one—well, not exactly like this one. Her lovers tended to be her peers, age-wise and professionally. After Bill died, she didn’t have the energy to raise a teenage son on her own, work full-time as a hospital administrator and nurture a relationship with a new man. But none of those other men made her half as nervous and excited as Tonio did with his sly smiles.

  Once the plates from their entrée had been cleared, Maddy realized she wouldn’t be able to suffer through the next course. “Do you want to ask them to box up dessert?”

  His long fingers toyed with the stem of his empty wineglass. Instead of answering her, though, he gestured for the waiter to return.

  “We’d like the cheesecake to go, please. But no forks.” He glanced at Maddy. “We won’t need them.”

  If Maddy wasn’t already sure about her decision before, she was convinced now.

  This felt like a good idea. She idly wondered if Tonio did this sort of thing regularly—

  seduce the mothers of his friends. The thought didn’t really bother her, but she dismissed it anyway. Despite Tonio’s blatant sensuality, he didn’t seem in
terested in collecting trophies.

  “I hope you plan on sharing that cheesecake.”

  Tonio leaned forward, capturing Maddy’s hand and bringing it to his mouth. He turned it upward and kissed her palm, letting his tongue linger and trace along her lifeline as he gazed up at her through his lashes. “Trust me. I’m a selfish bastard. Half the reason for picking cheesecake was wanting to feel you eat it off me.”

  Maddy thought it was a good thing she wanted a chance to do just that, because otherwise she would have dragged Tonio out of the restaurant before getting dessert or paying the bill. She already had the feeling that pulling herself out of bed the next morning for the wedding was going to be hell.

  The waiter arrived with their to-go container and the check. Maddy automatically reached for her purse, but Tonio quickly and calmly beat her to it, passing the waiter his card. Maddy couldn’t help but smile, but a small voice nagged at her. Could he afford a meal like this? Most of Shawn’s friends didn’t even have spare change for a cheeseburger.

  “So what do you do that allows you to enjoy only the best in life?”

  “I’m in computer animation. Games, mostly.” He grinned at her, a twinkle in his eye.

  “So the next time you see a gorgeous redhead with long legs shooting an alien’s head off on the front of a game box, you’ll know who inspired her.”

  “You can make me famous. That doesn’t sound too bad.” Neither did his career.

  Young, handsome—handsome enough to be beautiful—and successful. Tonio would have been quite the catch if she was looking for anything to last beyond the weekend.

  The waiter returned with the receipt, and Tonio signed off on it, barely looking at the scrap of paper. He rose and held out his hand, waiting for her to take it before picking up their dessert and heading for the elevator. His fingers closed possessively around hers, warm and sure, so that by the time they stood in front of the doors waiting for them to open, Maddy’s skin had gone hot yet again.

  He didn’t speak as the elevator arrived, didn’t do anything until after he’d pressed the button for their floor. Then, the hand that held hers let go, his arm curling around her waist. In the next instant, she was flush against his chest, his dark eyes burning into hers.

  “I’m sorry, Maddy. I’ve waited too long already.”

  She didn’t have time to protest before his mouth covered hers, or before he pushed her back against the wall, or before his lips parted and his hungry tongue demanded entry. She didn’t have time to breathe before hers parted as well, but she did have time to lift her arms and wrap them around his neck.

  Their first kiss had only teased her senses, but now he overwhelmed her. She smelled his aftershave, something sharp and spicy, and tasted the wine on his tongue. She felt his body hard against hers, hotter than she expected, holding her firmly against the wall. She heard her own heart thundering in her ears, and she was certain it echoed his. She vaguely heard the elevator chime and realized that was probably their floor. She couldn’t pull her mouth from his.

  When the door began to whisper shut, his hand shot out to jab the button to keep it open. Tonio licked along her lower lip one more time before easing back, but the rapid rise and fall of his chest told her how badly he didn’t want to.

  “Whose room?” he rasped.

  “Mine.”
