Unwrap Me in Unwrap Me

Excerpt

Jude stopped breathing. This was the moment the evening had been leading up to. It was her move, her decision. Fear brushed her, making her shiver. The last man she’d kissed was her ex, Don. The fiancé who’d dumped her.

But this was different. Neither she nor Nick wanted a serious relationship, so there was no danger he’d commit to her then betray her. All he was asking for was a kiss.
She shoved aside the fear and leaned into him, smelling the richness of red wine, meeting his lips with hers.

A first kiss was always a test. A delicate exploration and negotiation. Who are you, what do you taste like, what feels good for you, what’s your style as a kisser? And, most importantly, what feelings do you arouse in me? And vice versa.

An entire future hung in a first kiss. It could be lost or created in those seconds.

This kiss definitely created a future. It was amazing.

First his lips brushed hers as softly and lightly as a butterfly’s wings, then they came back, a little more firmly. Eagerly she pressed against them, trying to hold him in place. But he moved again, sucking her bottom lip between his, darting his tongue against the burning flesh.

She licked out, running her tongue over his top lip, tracing its full curves.

He nipped gently then settled his mouth fully against hers. His hand slipped through her hair to caress the back of her head. Running up and down through the roots of her thick hair, he circled in a motion that was almost massage. Soothing and arousing at the same time.

Leaning close, she put her hands on his shoulders, feeling the heated strength of his muscles through the flannel of his red shirt. At work, the men she met were white collar. If they had muscles at all, they’d been built in a gym. Nick’s were the real thing. These were shoulders that carried people out of burning buildings.
