Early Excerpt from WHAT A RECKLESS ROGUE NEEDS

After the carriage rolled off, Colin moved over to Angeline’s bench. “Give me a kiss.”

“I beg your pardon?”

“We’re affianced now. Well, secretly.” He plucked her sketchbook out of her hand and set it aside.

“It is only a trial engagement to see if we suit,” she said.

Devilment showed in his eyes. “Well, since it is a trial, we should practice so that we can perfect our kisses.”

“You need no practice. You are clearly an expert.”

His smile stretched across his face. “Like my kisses, do you?”

“They are…tolerable.”

When Colin pulled Angeline onto his lap, she shrieked.

“Good thing it’s so noisy on the road. Otherwise, John and Agnes might suspect I’m having my wicked way with you.”

“I might point out that there is plenty of room on the seat,” she said. “So I’ll avail myself of the space.”

He clamped his arms around her. “Please, can I have a kiss? Just one?”

“Very well.” She pecked him on the mouth, thinking to escape, but she’d underestimated him. He plucked at her lips and she opened for him without a thought in her head. The sweep of his tongue mesmerized her. She grew a little bolder and experimented touching her tongue to his, and when he groaned, she knew he liked it. She wanted so much more from him, but their wraps and gloves prevented them from going farther. It was probably for the best. Then his hands burrowed inside of her cape. “We must not,” she said.

“I know, but I yearn to touch you and for you to touch me.”
