Ben Tanner, retired Marine, and I have a new release, a military romance we wrote together. Here's an excerpt:
I can't believe I’m acting this way around a woman I just met.“What?” Tara stopped to face him, dropping his hand.“It’s…just…I’ve had so much pain…I—”“You’re worried about me?”Remember, she’s on the rebound just like you.He nodded. The moon bathed her in soft, shimmery light adding to her beauty. They stared at each other at a safe distance for a minute. Tara laced her fingers between his again, pulling him closer as they walked on in silence for a little bit. She broke from him to lean against a palm tree while she gazed at the moon. Mick joined her, looking up as well."What do you see?" he asked."I see a new beginning...for me...and for you."He put his arm around her shoulders. Tears clouded her eyes as she turned her face away, but he pulled her to him. Tara hid her face in his chest as her tears fell."I’d never hurt you." His whisper carried along on the soft breeze."I’d never hurt you either," she murmured, gazing up into his eyes. Hope I can believe her. I want to, but…At those words, he pulled her into a hug. Feeling her warm body against his, under the moonlight, on the crystal beach, his heart raced while his mind was at ease. It had been a long time since he held a woman in his arms, or kissed one either.
She raised her chin to look in his eyes as he lowered his mouth for a quick kiss. Flinching a bit at first, she relaxed, then clasped her hands behind his neck. giving a small tug. Mick caught the signal, bent to close his mouth down on hers again but with more passion. The slight pressure from his tongue parted her lips. Tara moaned softly as his arms tightened around her. Desire flowed through his veins, his hands itched to touch her breasts, to strip away her sexy dress and feel the softness of her skin against his. Making love on the beach in the moonlight crossed his mind…his pulse kicked up. You hardly know her. Slow down or she’ll bolt. *****************************CLICK HERE TO RETURN TO THE BLOG HOP
