Sizzling kisses to ring in 2010…

Redline Lover
Take Me, Lover #1
“Stop looming,” she said, jerking her chin at him. “You said come at lunch time.
You said you wouldn’t be gentle and I shouldn’t come if I couldn’t handle that.
Fine. I’m here. I’m naked. Why are you still dressed? If you don’t want me
anymore, Adam Richards, I’m going to throw something at your head for standing
there and watching me take it all off just so I’d be more vulnerable when you
rejected me. If this is your idea of payback for that stupid note—”
His mouth cut her words off. His kiss cut her breath off. His hands found the
covers and yanked them down so he could pull her close without the barrier of
too much fabric between them. His clothes were still in the way, though. Adam
broke off the kiss and let her go long enough to get naked.
He caught the way her eyes dipped down to take in all of him, the flush that
spread over her skin, and the sweep of her tongue over her lower lip as she
stared unabashed at the rigid proof that he still wanted her, right now, right
where she was. It made him harder and left him hanging on to the last shred of
his control with an iron will.

Take Me, Lover #3

Kissing Ryan would be like hearing a glacier. Touching something primal. And
cold, Jill reminded herself. He doesn’t want you. He wanted to get rid of you.
But it was hard to think of cold when heat was curling up from her toes,
loosening her muscles, humming in her blood. Ryan’s eyes darkened to the color
of bitter chocolate, the black pupils expanding in the deep brown that
surrounded them. The thinner air sharpened her lungs and her mind, speeding up
her responses, slowing down time.
It took infinity for his head to bend to close the distance between them. His
mouth covered hers, warm and firm and a little rough. His hand cupped her chin,
holding her still, as if she were capable of moving away. The rasp of his
fingers against her soft skin, the bite of the air, the heat of the kiss all
combined to overwhelm her senses.
I’m kissing a stranger on top of the world, she thought. Then she reached out
tentatively, settling her hands on his waist. She wasn’t bold enough to use the
hold to urge him closer, but she parted her lips in invitation, and after a
slight hesitation, he took it.
The kiss turned harder, hotter. His tongue found hers and stroked along it. She
breathed in pure mountain air and woodsy male, tasted him, and curled her
fingers into the fabric of his fleece pullover, wanting more.
Instead, Ryan abruptly broke the kiss and raised his head. He stared down into
her eyes. Then he released her and stepped back, so that she had to let go of
him just as fast. “That shouldn’t have happened.”

Take Me, Lover #4

She pulled the locked door closed behind her just as Joe stepped forward again,
bringing his body closer to hers. Not quite touching, but to put more space
between them she’d have to move back against her door. He drew his hands out of
his pockets and planted one on each side of her, framing her.
“I thought we should get this out of the way first.”
“This?” Cherry felt her pulse skip as he bent his head so his forehead touched
hers.
“The goodnight kiss. If we do it now, we won’t be distracted all through the
movie.”
“Oh.” She felt her lips curving in a smile that died as he slowly, so slowly
lowered his mouth to meet hers. He was just enough taller that she had to tilt
her chin up and rise a little on her toes. She put her hands behind her to use
the door for balance.
The kiss was warm, sensual, unhurried. Joe didn’t take his hands off the door to
pull her closer or take it further, and she followed his lead. There was
something about the single point of contact that sharpened her awareness,
focusing her senses on the press of his lips against hers, the taste of him.
When he ended the kiss, her eyes slowly opened again to meet his.
“I was wrong,” Joe said. “I’m going to be more distracted now.”
