Take a peek at book three, “Ignited”

Meet Ruth and Henry, the main characters from “Ignited,” book three in our Independence Falls superhero romance series.

Abandoning the rest of the buttons, Henry grasped the hem of her dress and began to tug upward. It took some maneuvering, both of them too frantic to slow down and work together, but a moment later she was free, before him in nothing but her pale, white slip.

Henry ducked his head and lapped at her nipple over the fabric. A sizzle of heat went straight through Ruth’s middle—her body wanted more, and it wanted it now. She tipped her head back and moaned, feeling satisfied when Henry answered the noise with one of his own. His hands went under her slip, and it joined her dress on the floor.

Ruth was naked. She’d never been naked in front of another human being before. Not since childhood, at least. She expected to feel exposed, awkward, embarrassed—and those feelings were there, in a way, but they were greatly overshadowed by her overwhelming desire to feel Henry’s hands on her.

His hands cupped her breasts, teasing the nipples with his thumbs, and Ruth squirmed. She felt achy with need, and when his hands left her chest and smoothed down her sides, that only made it worse.

She moved forward, finding his mouth again, kissing him with everything that she was feeling. Some deeply feminine part of herself was pleased that she could feel him kissing her back just as urgently. Henry, this beautiful, kind man, wanted her just as much as she wanted him, and it was deeply satisfying.

Leaving their mouths locked, she made quick work with her hands, tugging at his trousers. He smiled against her lips and broke away to stand up and step out of his pants. He hooked his thumbs around the waistband of his boxers, but she put a hand on his stomach, stopping the motion.

“Wait,” she told him. “I want to do it.”

His eyes went wide and then fluttered shut as she grabbed him by the hips and tugged him closer to her. She slowly peeled his boxers off of him, taking in the reveal of his erection.

It was long and lean, just like the rest of him, and Ruth had the strangest urge to put her mouth on it. She glanced up at him, his mouth parted, chest heaving, and knew it could wait—she wanted to feel his skin against her own, sweat-slick and glorious.

Slowly, Ruth laid back down on the couch. It was just long enough that she didn’t have to scrunch. Henry watched her intently, and she liked his eyes on her, liked putting on a show for him.

“Touch me,” she said, her voice hoarse in a way she had never heard before.

Ruth and Henry are on fire! (See what we did there?) Can’t wait for more? Lucky you, “Ignited” releases tomorrow–tomorrow!–along with books one and two.
