NSFW Excerpt:

He let out a sigh then moved closer to her. Knowing he was about to do something very important or incredibly stupid, he cupped her face. She let out a small gasp, but didn’t pull away. Progress.

“You’re stubborn, true, but you know how to take care of your kids. Don’t think the opposite.”

“Luc, what are you doing? What are we doing?” Her voice was low, breathy.

He backed her up one step, two, so her back pressed against the door. He didn’t want to cage her in fully, but he needed to know she was there, needed to feel her against him.

“I’m going to kiss you, Meghan. I’m going to taste your lips, your tongue. Then I’m going to do it again. Once I can’t breathe anymore, once I can’t do anything but crave you, I’m going to walk away and let you think about what this means. I’m here, Meghan. I’m not going away. I want you. I want us.”

“You can’t mean that. We’re friends, Luc. We’re not anything more. We never were.”

His fault, he knew, but that was the past. This was the present.

“We could be. This is just a possibility. A possibility of something greater than us standing alone in a room with a crowd of people surrounding us. Let me show you what you could have, what we could have. Let me show you.”

With that, he lowered his mouth, gently brushing his lips across hers, once, twice.

She froze then tentatively put her shaking hands on his chest, not pushing but touching. He licked the seam of her lips, and she opened for him.

They both groaned as he let his hands follow her neck and tangle in her hair at the back of her head, cushioning her as he pressed her harder against the door. Their bodies aligned, hot, hard melding to soft, want transforming to need. She tasted sweet and tangy, tasted of Meghan, the Meghan he’d never had but always wanted, always craved.
